Sobrang emosyonal naman si Aiko Melendez sa mahaba niyang caption sa video post ng pagtatapos ni Andre Yllana ng kolehiyo sa kursong Automobile Mechanic Course sa Don Bosco Technical Institute of Makati kamakailan.
Kuwento ng aktres, “As I write this, I can’t help but be emotional. Una kasi, 'di madali 'yung pinagdaanan ko para mapagtapos ko anak ko, yes on my own. Single mom ako 'di ba?
“Not complaining. I remember there were days na I was lacking in terms of financial at that time, Mader Ogie Diaz somehow knows my story. It’s a story of my UPS and DOWNS.
“Kasi my son was going through a depression at that time, umabot sa time nag-campus tour kami ng anak ko from Ateneo, Lourdes, Colf pero sabi ko, 'di ko susukuan anak ko, igagapang ko 'yan.
“Panganay ko 'yan, gagawin ko ang lahat just to make him finish college. Remember, nag-artista s’ya for a time kaso ang daming nangyayari so I spoke to him and he said he will finish school and if showbizness is still kind and will welcome him, babalik siya.
“Few of my friends know hirap ako talaga, Pops Fernandez, Carmina Villarroel-Legaspi, Gelli Rivera, Cez Gella, ‘yan ang may alam ng lahat ng luha ko, hirap.
“May oras na sunud-sunod, tanggap ako nang tanggap ng work para to meet our payables and all. I’m happy and sad kasi dream ‘yan ng Daddy Dan Castañeda ko kay Andre Yllana, to finish school, kaso wala na s’ya. So, Dad, finally heto na 'yun! Graduate na apo mo.
I know you must be as proud as I am now.
“To my brother Angelo Castañeda, thank you for being the 2nd dad of Andoy. And treating him as if your own. To my sisters Michiko Castañeda Bibit, Erika Akiko Castañeda Jacinto, thank you also for encouraging Andre to never give up. Jojon Jacinto, salamat for constantly reminding how important education is.
“And to Marthena Jickain for always lifting your kuya’s morale when he felt the lowest. You are Kuya Andre’s sunshine.
“Lastly, Jay Khonghun for convincing Andre in pursuing all his dreams, that in every downfall, he must rise!
“Andre sorry emo si mama kasi talaga lang proud na proud ako. You know I just want only the best for you. 'Di man tayo kumpleto, pero binuo mo and ni Marthena ang buhay ko. Love you son ! Cheers! Sens'ya na, mahaba! Masaya lang.
“Lastly, to my mom na mahal na mahal ang apo niya, salamat Mami Elsie Castañeda, if not for you, wala akong mabubuting anak.”
Samantala, ipinost naman ni Jomari Yllana ang larawan ng anak na si Andre sa kanyang Facebook page at ang caption, “Andre Raphael Melendez Yllana. I’m so proud of you (3 hearts emoji).”
