For Danmark Soriano Masongsong and his daughter Malia, that long-awaited reunion finally occurred last April, a moment captured in the heartwarming video, which has now gone viral.
After two years and five months of longing, Malia's innocent exclamation, "Mami, may daddy na ako yeheyyy!" resonated with the bittersweet reality of many families separated by overseas work.
The video posted on Danmark's page and shared by GMA News poignantly captured Malia’s innocent questions about her father’s absence during school events and graduation pictures.
“Alam mo ung part kc na nkklungkot sa twing sinasabi ni malia na bkit ung mga clsmate nya may daddy.. bkit don sa graduation my daddy sila bkit sa graduation pic may daddy sila bkit ako wala,” Cynthia wrote what Malia have always told her.
Her mom's promise in the caption, “Paglaki mo anak maintindihan mo na din ang lahat bkit kelngan ni daddy lumayo stin.. bkit kelngan ni dadi magtrbho sa malayo 😓,” spoke volumes of the sacrifices made by OFWs for their families.
The caption concluded with the hopeful words, “Pnsamantala mkksma muna ulit ntin sya ❤️ #LDR #OFWfeels,” a testament to the preciousness of their reunited time.
Tragically, this period of togetherness was cut short in the most devastating way. Just weeks after this joyful reunion, on May 4th, young Malia Masongsong became one of the fatalities in the horrific vehicular accident at NAIA Terminal 1.
She was at the airport accompanying her father for what was meant to be his departure for one final overseas work stint, a stark twist of fate that has plunged her family and countless others into deep sorrow.
The online community, which had witnessed the family’s joyous reunion, now mourns the loss of young Malia.

Ricky Lebrilla offered strength, saying, “Condolences po 🙏 pakatatag po kayo..” while Emmanuel Jocson Manipol and Xhan Cai simply shared their condolences.
The pain resonated deeply with fellow parents. Roxanne Malaque, expressing a sentiment echoed by many, wrote in Tagalog about the unbearable pain of losing a child, especially after pouring so much love and effort into raising them.
Kath Erine’s lengthy comment in Tagalog conveyed the heartbreaking reality of a long-awaited reunion turning into ultimate loss, emphasizing the profound grief of the parents.
The comments section became a virtual wake, filled with prayers, broken heart emojis, and messages of support for the grieving family.
