Kris Aquino Instagram – My Ate asked me if she was dying that’s why the HAPPY 66th BIRTHDAY flowers i sent were so over the top? Bago kayo totally ma weird sa ‘min, people who know my Ate & me intimately are used to the fact na we can discuss our deaths matter of factly- siguro coping mechanism na lang namin.(Tomorrow August 18 is her actual birthday.) And she asked why 4 arrangements? Was it because there were now 4 of us? i sent her another gift that shall remain private between us, i am posting the flowers because i had ordered them from my supplier and they arrived Saturday. Sheryl, owner of @59.flowercafe kept them refrigerated and fresh para mahatid this afternoon before curfew. i am so grateful because i gave such specific instructions about the emotions i wanted the flowers to express and Zach and the team achieved them so creatively. The sudden death of our brother profoundly changed me- it made me VALUE my FAMILY even more. i love all my sisters, BUT my Ate and i have a hard to explain bond, siguro because for me SHE keeps my mom’s memory alive- sya yung parati kong kakampi, everyday no fail she checks on me, instinctively knows when something is not quite right, and i feel i can (and i do) tell her EVERYTHING because SURE ako she’ll try her best to still understand and continue to LOVE me regardless of my imperfections. So to the world’s BEST ATE- i love you with all my heart and on a day i really didn’t want you to feel sad (even though i know we all still are) i’m glad i made you feel just how much you are #LOVED. 💛
