During the interview, Tito Boy asked Ariel if he could still recall his last conversation he had with his Dad and what transpired before that.

Ariel narrated that it was just before Christmas in 2019 when he got a call from Marvin, his brother, and told him the bad news.

“My brother Marvin, yung sumunod sa 'kin, said dad's not doing well. Something's wrong with him. He had sepsis na pala, but he was home. Parang, he seems lost. He's not himself,” Ariel recounted.

The singer then tried talking to his Dad over the phone but he said something’s off with his father.

“He was off topic, like it wasn't him I was talking to,” the singer said.

“I just whispered in his ear, and said thank you dad. For everything you've done for me, you've given me. Don't worry I'll take care of mom. Kung pagod na kayo, magpahinga na kayo. That's all I said,” Ariel said amid tears.

Ariel’s dad passed away just before the New Year.
