What was your relationship like with Sir Franky? We used to be on leave for 9 years. Now the setup is you are in Jeddah abroad. The children are with him. Child. Yes. Is that, ma'am, what happened to your arrangement? That's really your agreement. Um, he didn't follow the arrangement. Actually, we talked about it because I was leaving and he didn't have a job. We talked about how, because you can't support the children, he doesn't last long at work because due to his attitude problem, he always gets fired. He is a womanizer at work. He can't keep the children alive. We move from one rental to another because we don't have a place to live. Because he doesn't stay at work long. Then he's still flirting. I said because you can't keep them
alive, the children are hungry. I will act so that my children can live. My eldest was actually 2 years delayed because he couldn't go to school because he didn't have money to buy supplies, he didn't have money to enroll. So I said, "Okay, I'll just leave the kids with you. You take care of them since you don't have a job and you don't stay long at work. But you'll stay here in Manila because we were still in Caloocan before. I said you'll stay in Caloocan because my relatives are there. In case if ever, because the one he's with is young, he's still waiting for one, he can leave one of the other kids because there are three of them.
I didn't know that he was planning to take the kids home. He took the kids home. I was only in Riyadh for 1 week at the time. The first time I left, that was I think 5 to 6 years ago. He ran away from the kids. He admitted to me that he planned to take the kids home when I left. I didn't know that he was going to take my kids home. We talked about them living in Manila. Before I left, we were already separated. He was the one who broke up with me. I just agreed. Then he said, I said, there They will live there. They are renting somewhere because before I worked there I didn't really have a cellphone. I could use a cellphone. After my work was over, they were asleep. So I couldn't talk to them. Nothing really. As
of now, I just found out that they were there. So our situation right now is that the children are in Isabela, Negros Occidental and they don't want to ask you. Are you the mother? Yes. I talked to them last November. Last November 10. That was the last time I talked to my son. I still have a promise to him because November 11 is his birthday. The other one is 24. I still have a promise to him that's why I'm crying because I don't know how my son feels. Because I have a promise that I didn't keep because their father has already left me. The issue is that he doesn't want me to know because
he is asking for something. He is asking me for an NMAX because I can't give him because how much is my salary? I don't earn that much big. Yes. Then of course the birthday of my two children, the eldest birthday is November 11, the other is November 24. I want to just combine the birthday celebration because I only get paid once. I request a different celebration which is I can't afford it because how much is my salary then yes I am also saving for their future because my second daughter is studying to be a doctor so I think in case of emergency at least I can withdraw some money that is not necessary my child is dying but I don't have any money to spend that last time I saw them was in November
I said. I want to see the child. Yes. He will show it when I send the child allowance which is 10, a month, sometimes it reaches 18 depending on expenses like there is something needed at school there is this, there is that. It reaches 18, that's it. So how much is my salary? 23. Then he took pictures of just the legs, just the arms of the children. I want to see the whole child I. They said they would send me 100,085k so I can see the children in their entirety. Where can I get them? Right? What is happening to you, ma'am, is bordering on what is that? Extortion just to talk to you. Well, ma'am, this is what we will do here, right? And I'd like to explain first that under our family code, you are not married to this Franky
Jimenya. Parental authority and custody belong to you as the mother. Okay? That is your right. and all decisions made regarding the child must go through you. Why? Because under our family code, you have the right to these children. And for all those listening to us, the children, these three. No, 10 years old, 8 years old and 5 years old. They are all minors. Okay? The oldest is 10 years old and the youngest is uh 5 years old. No, now we are trying to contact this Franky but he is no longer answering our call. But ma'am Larilet, our legal remedy right now, if you want to get the children, we can file uh a
rit of havious corpus in the custody regarding the custody of children. Okay? Now, I understand you are in Saudi but it can be filed by someone with even with a substitute parental authority. If there is no mother in case of illegitimate children, it does not go to the father, especially since they are not really married. The right in me that mommy is absent because she is working abroad, the right is there for the maternal grandparents. So ma'am Larilet if you cannot come home right now we will need the cooperation of your parents, the grandfather and grandmother on your side so they can file the case when that is filed, the court will issue Franky with what is called a RIT of Corpus.
He needs to produce, he needs to bring the children. to the court and he needs to show that these are safe. Okay? And they are safe, right? And the He is extorting you for his wish in exchange for you to talk to or see the child. That's a violation ofy. Okay? Uh 9262 violation against women and children. We can see the psychological effect here on the mother. The saying goes, our researcher, this is Frankie Jimenea, spoke to him, he said he will not give the child up because he can take care of it and his brother supports it. Ma'am also says that she is hurting the children and she will not give it up if Ma'am Larry Let is a good parent.
Aan. Good afternoon, Ma'am Angelie. We would like to ask for the help of your office to have a welfare or assessment no check here for the children. There are three children involved. Ma'am Larry's children, Monte. We would like you to go there. Let's look at their situation there in Isabela Negros Occidental because the reality is that he is now in Negros without the approval of the mother. So yes. For now Ma'am Angelie just wants to know how they are doing there because she has been talking to them for months now. I have coordinated with the barangay and confirmed that Mr. Hemenea is there and according to him, he is the brother of a teacher from a school in Isabela. So next week, how can I schedule a time to talk to sir? He is in the
town proper of Barangay 7. We appreciate your first step. At least we confirmed that they are really in Isabela, Negros Occidental. But this is what we will coordinate with you, Ma'am Angelie. We will also be here, we will also go with the children's grandmother so that we can see Ma'am Larilet's side and her children. And by that time, Ma'am Larilet, we will take care of it so that you can talk to your children when you meet there. In the meantime ha, in the meantime, no case has been filed yet, this is welfare check no. Our Ma'am Angelie IV Mango will help again no. Ah this is for the social uh welfare department to check the wellbeing of these children.
Yes. It's really important to me to know how they are. Because it's hard here. I work alone, crying, wondering how my children are. That's all. I just want to make sure they're okay so I can rest easy because I don't really have peace of mind. I just want to know how they are. I'm like a stalker. I made a TikTok account because I saw that my ex had a TikTok account that my child was using. I'm like a stocker who always waits for his update just to see my children. You don't take the children from the father. I'm taking them. I'll take them. I want to take them. I'll take them. Okay.
Okay. No because maybe if I take them, he'll do it again this again. I know him. So we've been together for 9 years. I know how he thinks. So I know he'll repeat this over and over again so he won't torment my mind anymore. I'll have peace of mind and close this chapter of my life. I'll take my children. They are mine. So I'm a mother. I have a job. I am capable. I'm strong. I don't have a disability. I can give them everything they want. Even the needs that aren't important I can give them that. I'll take my child. That's my child. Yes. I won't ask him for even a peso. I don't need his children.
Okay. Yes. No. That's it. Very brave words from ma'am Larilet. Coming from a mother, she too, who has n't spoken to me for six months. I've endured it. I've endured it for a few years. I haven't seen them for years. I haven't been with them because I wanted to go. There's death He threatened me saying that once I go there he will kill me. Ah ma'am Larilet we will discuss this of air para na rin doon sa mga steps no yung legal steps po natin ia-avail po natin. Thank you so much.
