INAMIN ni Rica Peralejo na parang ayaw na niyang magbuntis matapos siyang makunan recently. Aniya, pangarap daw niyang magkaroon ng limang anak.
“Sa totoo lang gusto ko mga lima. Ha-hahaha! Kaya lang parang ang bagal, so sabi ko, ‘Sige Lord bigyan mo nga ako ng triplets para isang ganu’n na lang!’” chika ng aktres sa panayam ng ABS-CBN.
Ngunit tanggap na ni Rica na hindi pa ito ang tamang panahon para magkaroon uli ng bagong baby, “It’s too soon. Actually nu’ng una sobrang takot ako. it was one of the effects na parang ayoko na mabuntis, yung ganyan. Kasi parang may fear talaga sa iyo na what if it happens again.
“All of these lies in my head and then everyone was telling me to just give it time. So I was patient with myself.
“I gave it time and then one time hinawakan ng little boy ko yung tummyko and sabi niya, ‘I want to see baby!’ Eh usually naiyak ako pag sinasabi niya, ‘I’m kuya Philip. This is Philip kuya.’ That’s when I thought, ‘You know what, the baby is not just for me.
“The next baby is going to be for his siblings, his family, his parents, this nation.’ Whatever God has placed on that child’s life, he has meaning than just being the joy of his mother. So naisip ko this makes me ready,” sey pa ni Rica.
