"Andito na sya!!! Maraming salamat sa lahat ng dasal. Ang sakit ng tahi pero pipilitin ko kayanin. Sobrang worth it ang lahat ng sakit dahil sa nakita kong reaction ni Pele kay Vika," she wrote.

(She's here!!! Thank you for the prayers. The stitches hurt but I can handle it. All the pain was worth it especially after I saw the reaction of Pele upon seeing Vika.)
