MANILA – The late former president Corazon Aquino had made her presence known twice, her youngest daughter, Kris Aquino, revealed Sunday.

Kris shared that her mom “visited” her family last week and during All Saints’ Day.

This was how Kris recounted her mom’s “visit” while she was taking a bath last Thursday:

“Noong Thursday habang naliligo ako… ‘yong dimmer switch 3 beses [nag-on and off]. Alam ko it wasn’t electric failure kasi ‘yong hot water ko naman tuloy tuloy… ‘yong ilaw lang on, off. Two seconds on na naman, off na naman. Ako pumikit talaga at sinabi ko, ‘Okay mom, nagpaparamdam ka.’”

In her entertainment show, “The Buzz,” Sunday, Kris narrated another incident this time involving husband James Yap, a basketball player.

“Si Baby James sobrang obsessed kay Michael Jackson. Medyo masakit na ang tenga ko na never ending si Michael Jackson, sabi ko [kay James], ‘turn mo naman.’ So, si James naman ang sumama sa kanya.

“Dalawa lang [ang favorite] ni Baby James – ‘Billie Jean’ at ‘Beat It.’ And James made sure na naka-off na ang buong system. Kanina bago siya mag-work out bigla daw nag-on and not doon sa last song na they were listening to, but doon sa ‘Beat It.’ And talagang sobrang lakas. The entire house heard it,” she said.

Kris said the second incident happened after she and Yap had an argument. She said they were able to patch things up immediately.

She said: “Sinabi niya (Yap), ‘Siguro happy siya na bati na tayo.’ Sabi ko, ‘Correct. So, dapat wag na tayong [mag-away].'”

Kris also shared that she and older sister Pinky had a fight last Thursday. “And now, we’re okay because mom really finds a way na magbati-bati kami.”

She said she did not get scared because “it’s my mom.”

“I think it’s mom’s way of telling me, ‘Uy, I’m still here. I’m still watching over you.’ And siguro pagpapaalala, na kahit gaano ka-busy, ‘yong promised namin sa kanya na hindi kami mag-aaway-away at magpra-pray kami ng rosary. Siguro ‘yon ang message,” she said.
