Valentine’s Day, 2005. Three ordinary places — an LRT platform in Makati, a crowded public market in General Santos, and a provincial bus rolling toward Davao — become scenes of coordinated terror. In this episode of Stories Philippines, I tell the story of the Broken Heart Bomb: the carefully timed attacks that turned a day of love into a night of smoke, fire, and grief. We follow survivors whose lives were fractured in different ways — the commuter who never rode a train again, the market-goer who flinches at loud noises, the boyfriend whose roses were found blackened on the highway — and trace how a single act of human cruelty erodes trust, reshapes public life, and leaves a scar on a nation’s sense of safety.Trigger warning: contains descriptions of graphic injury, explosion, and traumatic aftermath. Listener vigilance is required.Find show notes and support options in the episode description.
