Our story began one Sunday morning when the brother of my boardmate, thea (I believe your friends online) came over our boarding house with his 6yr old nephew. He invited us for an open house at . I was quite hesitant then to come with them since the Director lives in the same street where I am residing”,) but since I always make up reasons turning down any of his offer, I accepted the invite. We arrived at ten minutes before the mass is over (in short pwerte kami ka late sa misa). Thea knew a lot of people and introduced me. I could hardly remember where I first meet joseph. But he attests that we met at the back portion of the center aisle infront of the altar. We went to Ersal’s room to wait for ng arhi but minutes had passed and still he wasnt around. thus we decided to take a tour while ersal is changing. We went all the way up to the fourth floor and i think thats where i met ‘him’ as far as i could remember. Ungko was kind enough to show us the place though i wasnt listening attentively to him. Joseph directed us to their canteen where his classmates were singing merrily and he offered snacks. We had little chats and giggles. We had the chance to casually know each other. Soon ng archi came but did not sat with us. It was only ungko who stayed with me while Thea is busy watching over her nephew. Joseph asked me a couple of questions one of them was the school am in. U.P. to my surprise, he conveyed that upians/piyups pips are liberated…always on night outs… T hambl ko kana i could not change what you think. anu pa b ang pulos ka ihambl ko if you had it fixed in your mind. (That was our first debate) hahahahaha
While we were conversing earnestly I felt something strange and was guilty about it. so i decided to leave. I called my mom infront of thea and joseph to make up reasons that i need to bring the key of the small cafe i used to own. (te lusot eh. gindul ong da man ako 2 pagwa) I hurriedly ride the ’sikad’ bwahahahhaha bahala tanda jan basta nagsikad ako asta sa highway sa Iloilo Supermart. kabuhay mag agi ang taxi mung y man jeep. Joseph asked me to stay since the clouds were getting dark and twas about to drip. hard headed, i went my way home.
Thea went back in our place late 8 that evening.TWO WEEKS PAST
During our class, one afternonn…
I recieved a text message from ‘him’. I didnt know he had a cp then or if they were allowed to have one. I replied addressing him bro…hahahhah ahay:( t hambl na joseph lang kay too formal ok then t joseph man eh. When I met thea that night she confessed she gave my no. to ungko. t mabuot man kunu si ungko. hahahaha t cge dlg gani.dats how we started texting each other.
