After 8 years since the death of Ed, Joy opened her heart again.

Joy got married for the second time around.

Before we got married, we said goodbye to them.

In Tilosan, you need to know the higher organ to enter into a relationship.

So, she said goodbye to them.

In 1988, the couple was also imprisoned.

But, they managed to escape.

And, they were caught again in 1991.

Until they got arrested in Tilosan.

The reason?

They were found by the CPP-NPA, Joma Sisun, to talk about strategy and relationship.

But, their peace was ruined when Rolly was beaten by armed men in January 2003,

in a Japanese restaurant in Quezon City.

Other people were killed.

Other people were put in the standing order.

Until now, they are still in the standing order.

The mastermind group suspected by Joma Sisun.

In Tilosan, if you leave your loved one alive,

then he will kill you.

It's painful.

But, in Tilosan, life is more dangerous.

You don't know who is your enemy or your friend.

Not long after, the New People's Army promised to kill them.

Even though, they were beaten twice,

they were able to find 3 true love.

Love to Edjop,

Love to Rolly,

Love to the people.

Is the second love story of the Martial Law era true?

Brothers and sisters,

One of the so-called power couple in the 80s when it comes to activism,

is Lidin Akpil and the Wonder Boy on the left, Leanne Alejandro.

Brothers and sisters,

just like many stories of activists,

their love story started with a fight.

The scene of Leanne and Lidin's encounter is like a movie.

Lidin ran and fell in the middle of a rally.

Leanne went to the rescue to help Lidin to get up.

They met each other there.

They took Lidin who fell.

That started the whole thing.

They were cute.

They were still young, young kids.

Leanne Alejandro and Lidin Akpil are both well-known student activists.

Aside from being President of the Student Council in UP,

Leanne is also a close friend of the Wonder Boy.

They are just friends.

Chino Roses, Butz Aquino, Jose Giocno, and Lorenzo Taniada.

But will Lidin be able to catch him?

He is the Secretary General of Gabriela.

He is also a highly intelligent person.

Of course, they have two strong personalities.

It's nice to know that they are friends.

Their relationship also ended in a fight.

In 1986, Leanne and Lidin got married.

Not even a year after their marriage,

they immediately got together.

On March 1987, they gave birth to their son, Susan.

But will Leanne and Lidin's happy ever after continue?

It was intense and passionate.

I suppose exciting in the midst of martial law,

in the midst of threats.

All is well that Leanne and Lidin got together.

It was perfect because they are a perfect couple.

But on the night of September 19, 1987,

while the group was waiting at the gate of the Headquarters,

a gunman shot Leanne.

Leanne died instantly.

I could not even cry over that.

It's so deeply hurtful.

If we were just friends.

But we love him deeply.

So you can just imagine how it affected Lidin.

And who is possibly behind this?

Lidin became a widow at the age of 27.

She did not get married again.

Instead, she focused her time on her advocacy for society.

Leanne can never be replaced in her life.

And she had to move on.

Lidin's involvement never faltered.

It never stopped.

But not all of our stories tonight

end in tragedy.

For example, Mara P.L. Lanot and Jose Lacaba

were lovers who fell in love with literature.

Then they got married.

And since then, they are still together.

Their names are Jose Pete Lacaba and Mara P.L. Lanot.

They first met at the UP Writers' Workshop in Baguio.

They got married in December 1970.

It's like this.

I was prepared.

Because you know what you're writing.

You know Marcos' mind.

So if there's anything against the government,

of course, it's blacklisted.

But from the world of literature,

Pete, who became a reporter for the Philippines Free Press,

joined the underground.

Although sympathy can be an activist,

Mara also faced another battle.

The tragic election.

In April 1974,

Pete was captured by the military

and suffered a severe torture

by the feared 5th Constabulary Security Unit

in Campo Karami.

Day and night, night and day,

until 12 o'clock, past 12 o'clock at night,

looking for help.

At least, he wasn't tortured.

Even so,

he managed to get a poem

from Mara.

When they were moving,

there was a guard sitting next to us.

He was checking all the food.

Maybe there's a letter, maybe a code.

I was even cooking.

Of course, not just for him,

but for the whole cell.

I was cooking.

But there's also something

that we were writing

on the back of the cigarette case.

When we were about to hand it over.

That's why in the two years

of Pete's imprisonment,

he never felt the need

to be separated from Mara.

Diveyra!

You're free!

You're a big man now.

You haven't seen the jaywalking.

Next time, don't do the jaywalking.

There's no light.

I didn't see the sign.

And brothers,

Pete's freedom,

do you know

where Mara brought him first?

Where?

This is such a happy place.

Quezon Lab.

We used to come here

to Chris' wedding.

But he didn't like it.

Chris didn't like it either.

But I showed it to him

and we played with it.

It's weird, right?

It's only been a few minutes

and there's no crowd.

Yes, he doesn't know

that there's a jaywalking.

Nowadays,

the married couple

in Quezon City are living in peace.

Mara,

a teacher and author

of many books

of books and novels,

is now part of MTRCB.

Pete,

is one of the only

Makata,

screenwriter,

and journalist

nowadays.

Now,

he's working as

a copy editor

and columnist

for Yes Magazine.

Their only child,

Chris,

is also a writer.

In their stories,

Joy,

Edjo,

Rolly,

Lady,

Pete,

and Mara.

What lessons

can we learn from them?

You should always be strong.

You should be ready

for any changes.

So,

your feet

should be planted

on the ground.

It's right

to love your country,

your family,

and your loved ones.

What does Bonifacio's poem say?

What kind of love

is greater

than the ease

and grandeur

of love

in the earth?

What kind of love?

Nothing.

Nothing.

Like their stories,

Edjo,

Joy,

Rolly,

Lady,

Leanne,

Pete,

and Mara,

we proved that

there are people

who never left each other

and continued

the fight.

Even if

the love story

of some people

is still a success,

their love

for their country

is still a success.

Brothers and sisters,

I am Lord De Vera

reminding you

that sometimes,

the pulse of the heart

is in the course

of history.

But,

always remember,

the heart

is on the left.

Good night.

This is History.
