“At least kahit sa ganyang bagay, nalalabas mo pa rin ‘yung pagmamahal mo,” Instagram user @yuanrain21 commented. “Kung ‘di ka nila tanggap, OK lang. Gano’n talaga [ang] buhay. Basta ikaw, proud ka sa kanila.”
(At least you get to express your love for them by doing this. If they don’t accept it then it’s OK. That’s life. What matters is that you are proud of them.)
“I just keep on praying for them, for more blessings to come,” Padilla responded.
