Irene Tesorero expressed her regret over her unresolved misunderstanding with sister Mahal during her virtual interview with Boy Abunda, released on Tuesday, September 21.
Mahal or Noeme Tesorero, in real life, died on Tuesday, August 31, due to digestive complications and COVID-19. As accounted by Mygz Molino, she first experienced COVID-19 symptoms on Wednesday, August 25.
Tosero, who currently resides in Cleveland, Ohio, thanked those persons who mourned her family’s loss.
“Parang ang mundo, lumiit para sa kaniya. Nagsama-sama. Maraming salamat sa kanila,”she said.
She revealed that a week before Mahal fell ill, she scolded her sister for not coming home and grieving their father’s death after he died on Thursday, August 5.
Mahal resided in Batangas with Molino, while her family lives in Metro Manila.
“Ito ang pinaka masakit sa lahat,” Tesorero said. “‘Yung last naming nagkausap, a week before siya nagkasakit, nagkatampuhan kami. Kasi namatay na si Papa. Sabi ko sa kaniya, ‘Umuwi ka muna, mag-grieve ka muna kay Papa. Kailangan mo ‘yan, e.’”
“Lagi siyang umiiyak. Nagkatampuhan kami a week bago siya nagkasakit,” she said.
Tesorero deeply regretted the argument with Mahal.
“Sana wala na lang ako sinabi, hinayaan ko na lang. Maybe ‘yung bigat na nararamdaman ko, hindi sana ganito. Kasi minahal ko ‘yan,” she said.
She also clarified that Molino, Mahal’s rumored partner, was not the reason for their argument.
“Hindi si Mygz,” she said. “Ang gusto ko lang, umuwi lang siya. Lalo noong namatay si Papa, gusto ko siyang mag-grieve with the family. Hindi siya nakinig.”
She also described Mahal’s true relationship with vlogger Molino.
“Ang sabi niya (Mahal) sa akin, kaibigan,” she said. “Iba ‘yung definition sa kaniya ng kaibigan at boyfriend. Kagaya niyan, magkasama sila sa bahay, boyfriend niya na ‘yan.”
“Kaibigan, pero special na kaibigan” she described Mahal’s relationship with Molino.
“Tosero also said that Molino gained her approval among Mahal’s past romances.
“Alam mo pag mahal ang kapatid mo,” she emphasized.
Tosero’s strict approach to Mahal’s boyfriends caused tension between them.
Tesorero recalled Mahal’s words: “Kayo nga, may pamilya, may anak. Ako wala. Ito lang ang nagpapasaya sa akin — boyfriend, barkada. Hayaan mo na ako. Nabibigay ko naman ang gusto niyong lahat.”
Tosero said she commended Molino for taking care of her sister which she did not witness in her past boyfriends.
“‘Yung pag-aalaga niya, OK naman. Kasi ‘yung ibang mga boyfriend ni Mahal, hindi ganiyan ang trato kay Mahal. Si Mygz, talagang binigyan niya ng special treatment si Mahal, kaya OK ako sa kaniya,” she said.
She then denied that their family has ill feelings for him. In fact, they are thankful to him for staying with her on her last days.
“Hindi. Lahat kami hindi. Kung tutuusin, nagpapasalamat kami kay Mygz kasi ‘yung huling two days ni Mahal, nagsasabi na si Mygz. Si Mahal, sinasabi niyang okay lang siya. Si Mygz, tumatawag na kay tita, sinasabi na kung ano ang sitwasyon ni Mahal. Naiintindihan kong ginawan nila ng paraan,” she said.
“Sa huling dalawang taon ng buhay ni Mahal, napakasaya niya. Sana hindi ka maging stranger after nito, kasi ikaw nalang ‘yung huling memories ni Mahal sa amin. I bet ‘yung last day, last week niya sa iyo, marami kayong good memories,” she added.
Tosero then became emotional and apologetic as she remembered her argument with Mahal, followed by her unexpected death.
“I’m sorry. Hindi ko in-expect. Sinabi ko lang naman sa ‘yo iyon kasi I love you and I care for you. Alam mo naman ‘yan, e,” she said.
“Kayong dalawa ni Papa, lagi ko kayong binibiro. Kayo talaga, paborito niyo ang isa’t isa, lagi kayong magkasama. Ayan, nagkasunod talaga sila.”
“Sana bigyan ako ng kapanatagan ng loob na tanggap ‘yung wala na sila,” she said.
