A touching story by Patricia Formoso from the Philippines
my little jerry
It`s been a long overdue experience of mine in a Bench & Jerry event, but I decided to post it just now after giving birth to my baby…<br>
I was in a Bench & Jerry event last November 5 in NBC Tent, together with my husband, Noel. I was in my 7th month of conceiving, but it never stopped me from seeing the man I longing to see, Jerry Yan. My husband was so supportive, he was the one who bought 14 tees from Bench, so we could be there, he really went out of his way to be with me. While we were there in the venue, the rain never stopped from pouring, I was a bit worried because of the long lines I have seen. I wanted to lined up, but my husband never allowed me to, he was the one who lined up, and I was in the car waiting. Fortunately, there were some fans of Jerry who has a good heart, telling my husband to just follow me and they will be the ones securing the line for us, they worried about me. If you happened to see a pregnant woman in that event, that was me, though, my tummy is not that big for a 7th month, but it was still obvious.
Our turn to get inside, and even the securities were all eyes on me, probably, they never imagined, why on earth a pregnant woman doing there, I just wanted to see Jerry, and I was with my husband, nothing to worry about. While we were inside, there were no seats, I felt some cramps on my legs, but it was tolerable, my husband kept asking me if I am ok, how would I tell him I am not, but honestly, I am just fine. And call it luck, I was one of those whose names were called to go up and meet Jerry, I believe my lucky charm is my baby, I was so excited even asked my husband to buy a cd because I left mine at home. He was so worried because I have to go up onstage, and he cant be there to hold me, but I am a stubborn pregnant woman, I will do what my heart desires, but of course I know how to take care of myself and my baby. Bench people were so helpful of me, they held my hands as I go up. When it was my turn to Jerry, I saw him looking into my tummy first right before he looked into my eyes, he looked amaze probably never expected a pregnant like me still find time and energy to be in the event like this. He said hello, and I was moved, Jerry like I always imagined is really a very handsome guy up close. As he was signing the cd he was smiling, and when he handed me the cd and shook my hand, in his soft voice, I heard, take care. I wanted to cry right at that very moment, because I felt the sincerity. I said thanks to him and he smiled. And there was this nice guy who was wearing a cowboy hat, who helped me to go down, I don’t know if he was with Jerry or somebody from Bench. My husband was already waiting for me as I go down from the stage. And it was a wonderful scene for me, meeting my “dream man” on my way up, and being with my real man as I go down. My husband told me that he saw Jerry`s concern when I was about to go down, he was still looking at me, according to him. He was able to catch it on video, and true enough, after watching it, I have seen Jerry`s concern, making sure I was safe. What a guy! Even my husband was touched by his gesture.
And last month, January 15 to be exact, I gave birth to a bouncing baby boy, 6.8 lbs. It was the happiest moment of my life. I gave birth through a normal delivery. I endured the pain all throughout but it was all worth it cause I give life to my little one. I was asleep the entire night, and when I woke up, I caught a scene that would probably remain in my heart forever, my husband carrying our son with tears in his eyes. He was talking to our baby as if he would answer back. It was a sight to behold, and when he felt that I am already awake, he brought our son to me, and said, Honey, here is our little Jerry. Yes, my dear baby, my little Jerry. My husband did not complain when I told him that I would name our baby after Jerry Yan, the moment I learned the gender. I cried when I saw him, and I laughed when he yawned. It was a great feeling. Now I know the feeling of a mom who would do anything and everything for her child.
I thanked God for giving me a wonderful husband, who will do anything just to make me happy. I`ve been praying for someone like him and I am glad that God answered my prayers.
And I thank HIM once again for the greatest gift I`ve ever received, my little one. My pride and joy. My only prayer is for him to be as nice as the man I named him after. Not to be as famous, not to be as handsome, but to be as kind and caring person. Jerry Yan will be forever in my heart as I have my son forever in my life.
I would post my baby`s photo next time, and maybe if and when Jerry visits Manila again, I want him to meet my little one...my first born...my little Jerry...
