00:00You'll have to lend me 500 pesos each.
00:06He's a teacher, and you're just a student.
00:08You feel like you don't have the right to listen to him.
00:10But somehow, you know that you have to return the money to him.
00:15Ma'am Cherry is threatening me.
00:18And I'm saving up so that I can help my father save up for his medicine.
00:25You're using your position to get money from them.
00:28All those who won't give me 100 pesos,
00:33I'll kill them.
00:42Class, listen.
00:44These are the aprons that you'll be making.
00:49You'll apply all the stitches that I taught you.
00:55Running stitch, backstitch, and more.
01:00That fabric is 50 pesos.
01:09Do you have any complaints?
01:11No, ma'am.
01:13Good.
01:14Asia, you're going to teach your classmates, okay?
01:18Oh my God, Ria.
01:20This piece of fabric is not even 50 pesos.
01:23Ma'am Fortuna is making fun of us again.
01:25The projects of Ma'am Fortuna in our TLE subject are making me sick.
01:30What are you gossiping about?
01:34Do you want me to stitch your mouths?
01:39I heard them, ma'am.
01:40They're complaining about the 50 pesos that you're giving them.
01:43I heard them, ma'am.
01:44They're complaining about the 50 pesos that you're giving them.
01:48What's your problem with the 50 pesos that I'm giving them?
01:51You're going to a public school.
01:55Our salaries are too low here, teachers.
01:59What do you want?
02:00Do you want me to sponsor your projects?
02:04I wish you enrolled in a private school.
02:07Ma'am.
02:09Yes, Ria.
02:11But can we just buy fabric to save money?
02:16What am I going to do with that fabric?
02:20Do you know that I massaged it?
02:23You're the only ones who have a lot of money, Ria Maria.
02:26We can't pay you, ma'am.
02:27You're the one who's gossiping.
02:29You're the one who's gossiping.
02:30You're the one who's gossiping.
02:32You're the one who's gossiping.
02:34You're the one who's gossiping.
02:36What do you want?
02:37What do you want?
02:39Get out of here.
02:40Get out of here.
02:47Ma'am.
02:49Ma'am.
02:50I'm sorry. I didn't mean to.
02:52I'm sorry, ma'am.
02:56Get out of here. Now!
02:58Now!
03:04Now!
03:10Class.
03:13Quiet, okay?
03:22So, how's Cherry?
03:24Oh, my.
03:25She's doing what my students are doing.
03:27She's reporting to the principal.
03:30So, are you going to get the phone that I'm selling?
03:33You said you're interested.
03:36If not, I'll ask someone else.
03:44I'll get it.
03:46Is it still free?
03:52Okay.
03:53I'll give you the down payment later.
03:56Okay.
03:57Thank you.
03:58Thank you.
04:00Morning, ma'am.
04:01Morning, ma'am.
04:05All three of you.
04:07Come here.
04:14Hurry up.
04:16Why, ma'am?
04:19Because of what you did in the classroom earlier.
04:23I almost killed you.
04:25Look at that.
04:26Do you know
04:28that the three of you can be expelled from this school?
04:33Come on.
04:34Let's go to the principal's office.
04:36Ma'am, don't.
04:37I might get fired.
04:39Ma'am.
04:40Ma'am.
04:41Ma'am.
04:42Ma'am, have mercy.
04:43My father is sick.
04:44I don't want him to get sick.
04:46Have mercy, Ma'am Fortuna.
04:52Okay.
04:54Okay.
04:56I'll give you the down payment.
05:00But
05:02you have to lend me 500 pesos each.
05:08I'll pay you next week.
05:11Ma'am,
05:12we don't have that kind of money.
05:15Ma'am,
05:16here.
05:17I'll pay you back in two weeks.
05:19Don't tell the principal.
05:24Okay.
05:25Thank you.
05:29What about the two of you?
05:32I'll force you
05:34to report to the principal.
05:37Huh?
05:39Ma'am.
05:40Ma'am.
05:41Don't.
05:42We'll find a way, Ma'am.
05:53Okay.
06:03Dad,
06:04how are you?
06:05I'm fine.
06:08You're still sick, Dad?
06:10I can't even open my mouth.
06:15I'll make you some medicine, Dad.
06:18Oh, Romy.
06:19Yes?
06:22I bought you some medicine
06:25for your high blood pressure and diabetes.
06:28But I'm sorry,
06:30I can't finish the whole prescription.
06:33I'll take care of the rice and vegetables first.
06:36I still have to pay for the laundry.
06:40I still have a week.
06:42It's a good thing I have a job now.
06:44Mom.
06:45Son.
06:48I'll buy Dad's medicine.
06:50I ran out of bananas earlier.
06:57Thank you for your help, son.
07:00It's nothing, Dad.
07:02What's important is that I have a job.
07:15This is sweet.
07:16Thank you.
07:18Here.
07:20Thank you.
07:23Mary, I need to finish this.
07:26I still have to pay for Ma'am Fortuna.
07:29I lied to my mom.
07:31I told her that we have a field trip this Saturday.
07:33So, I'll stay with you.
07:35Okay.
07:44Ahem.
07:47So?
07:49Let's talk.
07:58Thank you.
08:00You're giving this to me?
08:02You took so long.
08:04Here.
08:09There.
08:11Is this good?
08:14Yes.
08:23There.
08:26For the next periodical exam,
08:28I'll increase the price of the yellow pad.
08:32Ma'am,
08:33can I buy this?
08:35I don't have money to buy a yellow pad.
08:40I won't accept that.
08:42It looks like it came from a cow's ass.
08:45Here.
08:46It's for Mary Anna and me.
08:49There.
08:51This is for you.
08:56Ready, class?
09:04Ma'am,
09:05parts of the sewing machine.
09:07It's not my fault
09:09if I don't like reading your books.
09:14Answer me what you know.
09:40Here.
09:41You distribute this.
09:44Class,
09:46you all failed.
09:55Ma'am,
09:57what do we do?
09:58What can we do?
10:01I don't know.
10:02I don't know.
10:03I don't know.
10:04I don't know.
10:05I don't know.
10:06I don't know.
10:07I don't know.
10:08What do we do?
10:14To pass you all,
10:19just do a special project.
10:23All of you will give me 100.
10:28Do you have an advertisement?
10:32This is good for our Christmas deco.
10:35I'll be the one who'll buy.
10:37Excuse me, but we don't have any money left.
10:40Can we just make some decorations?
10:50All those who don't give a cent...
10:55...will fall.
10:57Do you understand?
11:00Do you understand?
11:02Yes!
11:03Good!
11:04I'm afraid that I might be expelled from school.
11:07I'm afraid that something might happen to us.
11:11I don't want to fall.
11:13Ma'am, I need the 500 pesos.
11:16Okay.
11:18Here's what we'll do.
11:20I'll transfer you to my subject.
11:22In exchange for your 500 pesos.
11:25Okay?
11:26Ma'am, that's from my savings.
11:29If I don't need it, I won't give it to you.
11:34What do you want now?
11:35Okay.
11:37I'll just transfer you.
11:39Ma'am.
11:42Ma'am, please don't do this.
11:49When it comes to debt,
11:51it's really hard when it's at the point of no return.
11:55In Ria's case,
11:56how can a student be forgiven
12:00if the teacher who owes money
12:02is arrogant?
12:07If we all go to the same class,
12:10then her obsession will stop.
12:12Don't blame me for your complaint.
12:16Ria is right, Hazel.
12:18We also heard that you borrowed a lot of money.
12:21Us too.
12:22You know what?
12:23It's not my fault if you keep on borrowing.
12:28Hazel, it's not right.
12:30We all have our needs.
12:33What's right?
12:35That you bought your grades from Ma'am Fortuna
12:37so that you can pass?
12:39I heard you from Ma'am.
12:41You really fell for her.
12:43Right?
12:44You paid Ma'am so that you can pass.
12:47Then she kicked you out.
12:49You're really going overboard, Hazel!
12:52Hey!
12:53Stop it!
12:54Guys, stop it!
12:56Guys, stop it!
13:00Stop it!
13:01Why are you fighting?
13:04Tell your daughter
13:06that I'm not saying anything wrong.
13:07It's true that she paid Ma'am Fortuna
13:10so that she can pass our subject.
13:12What?
13:13And you!
13:14Don't you dare talk to me like that!
13:16Stop it!
13:19Ma'am Fortuna
13:24Ma'am Fortuna
13:26Our teacher kicked us out
13:28because she intended to make the exam questions difficult.
13:32She intended to make the questions difficult.
13:36Then she paid us a hundred pesos
13:39for the Christmas decorations.
13:43What did your classmate say earlier?
13:46That you paid so that you can pass.
13:48What's that?
13:49I saved up so that I can help
13:52buy Dad's medicine.
13:54But when I asked for it,
13:58he didn't pay.
14:04How much did he take from you?
14:07Five hundred pesos.
14:16Here you go.
14:18Thank you.
14:20Here you go.
14:22Next time, okay?
14:23Thank you, Ma'am.
14:24You're welcome.
14:28Ma'am, let's talk first.
14:30What is your daughter telling me?
14:33That you don't want to pay her debt
14:35so that she can pass your subject?
14:37Be careful when you talk to me.
14:40Ria,
14:42what are you telling your mother?
14:45I don't know.
14:47Ma'am, that's what you told me.
14:50You won't pay me.
14:52You'll just let me pass your subject.
14:54I'm not asking you to pay for my grades.
14:58I'm not.
15:00That's an insult.
15:04I can complain to you.
15:08If I owe your daughter,
15:10fine, I'll pay.
15:12But,
15:14let's be patient.
15:16Because,
15:18because she's stupid,
15:20I'll make her fail.
15:22What do you mean by stupid?
15:24What you're saying is
15:26you really worked hard for your exams
15:28so that these kids will fail.
15:30And what will you do after that?
15:32You'll get money from them
15:34and you'll lend it to them
15:36to let them pass.
15:38If you make my daughter fail,
15:41you can expect
15:43that we'll be ashamed here.
15:47Just chill, ma'am.
16:06What happened to you?
16:11Did your teacher really
16:12push you to the ground in TLE?
16:16That woman is really weird.
16:18She's my teacher.
16:25It's good that I came here
16:27instead of to the barangay.
16:29Mrs., what's the problem now?
16:31I thought we were just
16:33having a good conversation.
16:35I'm sorry.
16:37I'm sorry.
16:40I'm sorry.
16:42Here,
16:44here's my promise.
16:46Okay?
16:49But you still pushed Ria.
16:53Mrs.,
16:55I can't let her pass
16:57because your daughter is really stupid.
16:59My daughter is not stupid
17:01what you're saying is
17:03you were just trying to impress
17:05your students.
17:07Hey!
17:09What right do you have to talk to me like that?
17:14Are you ashamed?
17:16You're a teacher.
17:18You know what?
17:19You're being watched by your students.
17:22Instead of being a good example to them,
17:24what are you doing?
17:25You're using your position to get money from them.
17:29What's the basis?
17:31The story of your son?
17:33Your son, the complainant?
17:35I know who he is.
17:38That's why he's like that.
17:39Thank you.
17:40Because that's how his mother is.
17:44You have the guts to talk to me like that.
17:47You!
17:49You should be punished for this.
17:51You're going to leave me?
17:53You're a teacher.
17:55You're embarrassing me.
17:57Get out of here.
17:58I'm not going out.
18:00Come here.
18:02Misfortune.
18:04What do you mean?
18:06Why are you fighting with your parents?
18:09They're your students.
18:11Explain yourself.
18:15It's hard for me to accept that my son is a teacher.
18:19No.
18:20It's true.
18:21They're trying to protect him.
18:23Let them in.
18:26Come here.
18:29Now, tell me your story.
18:33Ma'am Fortuna borrowed money from my son for another year.
18:37She hasn't been paid yet.
18:39My mother, Mary Ann, did the same thing.
18:42She learned to use my son as an excuse to borrow money from that teacher.
18:46I wish I were her.
18:47Ma'am did the same thing.
18:48She's seeing students whose orders will arrive later.
18:52Maybe that's why she's able to borrow money from the students.
18:55Now, tell me.
18:56Is there no truth to all the allegations against you?
18:59I just did it, Ma'am.
19:03It's because our teachers' salaries are too low.
19:08Education is a vocation, Miss Fortuna.
19:12If you need a lot of money,
19:15and for your children to grow up,
19:18you're in the wrong place.
19:20Now,
19:22pay for all your debts.
19:27I'm sorry, I'll pay for all your debts.
19:31I'm sorry.
19:34I'm sorry.
19:37I'm sorry.
19:40Ma'am.
19:41Ma'am.
19:44Ma'am.
19:45Ma'am.
19:46Ma'am.
19:48What if the lessons you're hoping to use in life from the teacher
19:53were replaced by bad experiences?
19:56I don't want to go back to the traumatic timeline.
19:59Because it's like we're the ones who are chasing him.
20:01It's like I'm the one chasing him instead of him giving me money when he borrowed money.
20:06Hi, Ria.
20:07Welcome to Wish Ko Lang.
20:10Tell me, what happened?
20:12He needs money.
20:14He needs money.
20:16But he said he'll pay me back right away.
20:18So, I didn't doubt that he'll pay me back.
20:22At the same time, we also have a project.
20:25So, I just thought that I'll borrow first and I'll pay for the project.
20:29Then, he said he'll pay me back right away.
20:32For the children, don't be afraid to talk to an adult, right?
20:36Someone who can help them.
20:38Principal or their parents.
20:40Right?
20:41So that at least they can do something.
20:43There is a law as early as 1965 prohibiting schools, public schools
20:50from collecting any type of fees from students of elementary, intermediate.
20:56And this was prepared in 1969.
20:58The DepEd has its own rules prohibiting collection from students.
21:04He can file an administrative case.
21:07The ultimate result of that is the dismissal of the so-called teacher.
21:13This is for you.
21:14This is also a big help to my family.
21:17Because after that, we also had a hard time.
21:20So, this is a big thing.
21:22Ria, aside from that, we also prepared a surprise for you.
21:26So, come with me so that we can see it together, okay?
21:30Ria, accept our gifts for you.
21:33First on our list are the snack packages.
21:36This is for you, Ria.
21:38This is the food stand where you started your business.
21:41So, that's complete.
21:42We have a fryer, we have a griller.
21:44And you will need different things here in your food snack business, right?
21:50Aside from that, we also added different rice and mini cake items
21:55for Ria's business to be complete.
21:59For Ria's new business, we also prepared a Sari-Sari store business
22:06complete with grocery items, frozen products, kimchi, and yema spread items
22:14that can also be sold online.
22:16Aside from that, we also have a rice business.
22:20Ria, also accept a brand new phone for your online business.
22:25Aside from that, we also have a Wishkolang savings.
22:28This is a financial help for Ria.
22:31Ms. Vicky, she doesn't know how happy I am right now,
22:35even for the Wishkolang.
22:36When I saw this, I thought that I was just good to my teacher
22:43and I didn't expect that this is how she will return it.
22:46So, thank you very much.
22:47It's a big thing.
22:48My parents will be happy with this.
22:51Dear friends, let's always remember,
22:53as long as we don't get tired of praying and believing,
22:57we won't get tired of fighting for life.
23:01I am Vicky Morales, and this is my Wishkolang.
