I have to think, how can I get out? And I started to ask help for Thailand people because they're the ones who got in and out in Myanmar with no problems.

Thailands are powerful in Myanmar. They are untouchable. And then I asked the one Thailand boy to help me. Then he said, there is no problem with the car. We have the contact. But the problem is the money. If you have the money, we can get the car.

And then the boss said, if you did not go out on the compound at 8 in the morning, you have two options. We will sell you or we will kill you. I only have two options. I didn't sleep till the end.

outside and that car is different from the picture they sent to me that will pick me up so I got scared and then I didn't understand them because they're talking Burmese and Thais and then they told me that I will pass a river that is the time that I got scared because I didn't pass the river right Yeah, but I think it's my time. I think I accepted it like maybe, okay, I would get killed.

But I think it's my time. It's my time because I am very scared to hurt the river. I really get scared. And then the driver of the car is not a Thai. It's the big boss of the military in the Burmese. He is the driver. And then I used the Google Translate. I told the driver, sir, I have a son. Please bring me to the river alive. Please don't kill me. I'm begging you.
SCAMMERLAND

I said, don't kill me. It's a normal thing with them, right? Then we passed the river. The river is so small, like five meters away. Yeah. And then when you pass the border, it was already Thailand. When I passed the river, one car was waiting on me on the other side and bring me on the hotel to chew the set to go. When I got there, really. I feel safe. When I saw Judah and Amy, I know I'm safe.

So when I saw Judah and Amy, I feel excited. I'm so happy that someone was helping me. Like, I can talk English and someone will understand me. Like, you know. And then they explained everything to me. What will I do? What is the best option? Which is everything. But when they heard my story that I passed the border, everything's changed.

Not much. But when I get scared or nervous, I smoke. When I step out, when I smell the air of the Philippines, I know it's my country. Everything I do, I know it's my country. And I know it's mine. And no one will harm me, right? Yeah. I know I'm home. I know I'm home. And even I'm tired for everything. I go straight seven hours from Manila to my home and I travel.

He was crying. I am not crying. He was crying because he knew what is happening. But I don't want to see me crying because I know it's my fault. Like, I put myself in danger again. Like, I don't want to disappoint him again. You know? So I cried all the time, but they didn't see me crying.
