Missing Jeepney Passenger

This happened way back 2017.We have an old lady neighbor named Aling Nympha. Aling Nympha, we are not close to her but she is kind. Why don't we talk often.One day, she died alone in her house. Maybe due to old age. We don't know any of his relatives so we took care of his funeral and funeral. It's sad because he has few visitors. Intermittently, they are just our neighbors. No relatives because we don't know any.One day I rode the jeepney to work. Fill the jeepney. I'm sitting in the left side chair. Next to me is an old woman. He smiled when he smiled at me. So me, I smiled at him even though I'm not aware of him. Then when I smiled at her she said, ′′ Hijo thank you ah ′′I wonder why he is grateful. But I just ignored the old man and I just looked through the window of the jeep. I'm not in the mood to talk because I'm sleepy.Then the jeepney suddenly stopped because it was still going to ride. All of us passengers got angry.′′ Manong what is that, the jeepney is already full and you will still ride it ′′ I said and the other passengers.′′ What tree? There, there is still vacancies on the right. That's just nine. That's ten."′′ Manong, the passengers on the right are already ten," I told you.′′ That's only nine. It's been a while since nine. You still know how to me," the answer of the driver is G and G. Lol.I looked at the right side of the jeep again. Only nine passengers. Even the other passengers were surprised.′′ Isn't it that we were ten earlier? Isn't it brother, we are ten here on the right? You are still talking to a passenger ′′ a woman told me.And then I noticed that the old woman who thanked me is gone. No one even noticed that he got off. All of us are wondering where the old woman went.When I reached the office, I just realized that the old woman is familiar. And then I thought of Aling Nympha. Aling Nympha looks like an old woman.I am not sure but maybe it's his 40 days when he showed me on the jeep. After his funeral we all went back to our old lives.Since then, our family visited Aling Nympha's grave on her all soul s' day or death anniversary because in a nearby cemetery we just buried her. It's just a pity that no relatives are visiting his grave.But that's not where Ms. Nympha showed me ended.I don't see myself as having a 3rd eye because I don't see a ghost except Aling Nympha.Year 2018. So I will ride a UV Express when I saw Aling Nympha inside. Sitting in the front and just looking at me like he mad or pushing me away.I felt so scared that I didn't ride that UV even though I was late for work. I just rode the following UV Express.When we were on Commonwealth Avenue, there was a collision between a bus and a UV Express... the UV Express that was my vehicle earlier. If I rode there, I would have been included in the accident. Aling Nympha may have shown me to warn me not to ride that UV.Wherever Aling Nympha is now, may her soul rest in peace.

Love in the Time of CoronaHello. This is Lyndon again. The one who sent ′′ The Missing Jeepney Passenger ". It warms my heart that you liked that story. And I have a new story now.I am based in Ontario, Canada now working as a health office assistant in a hospital. I started working here on January 2020I had a Canadian nurse friend here. His name is Scottie. Scottie is handsome and I can't avoid liking him (yes, I am a closed gay). I thought at first he was snobbish. When I was new in the hospital, we didn't talk much because our work is not related.We just became close and I added him to Instagram. I thought at first he would reject me but he accepted me. Since then we have been talking through chat. Of course I am so thrilled.Only so, he only thinks of me as a friend. She often invites me to her apartment to drink and share stories or Netflix. His favorite movie is Love. Actually I was surprised because he's a man. His favorite movie is romantic comedy. He sometimes invited me to the park to ice skating.He taught me how to ice skate. I feel romantic excitement because he holds my hand when he is teaching me. Sometimes he caught me when I almost fell.I also admitted to him that I'm gay. But even so, he never left me. He still thinks of me as a friendWe only met less when he got a girlfriend. I was so jealous before but I don't have the right. I just hid my eyes from Scottie.One day, I thought to confess that I looked at him. I don't care anymore even if he leaves me. I thought of talking to her in the hospital when I met her to confess to her.But my plan was interrupted when WHO declared that Coronavirus is already a pandemic.I was temporarily laid off from my work in the hospital because management decided that essential workers will be admitted first like nurses like Scottie.Scottie and I haven't seen each other during the pandemic. He also avoids meeting with other people because he is at high risk of getting Coronavirus because he is handling COVID patients. So even though I miss her, we can't see each other. He doesn't chat often because he is busy at work and tired after shift.One day, he suddenly chatted. What he said:"Lyndon, I contracted the virus. It's killing me, man"She was confined to the COVID facility of our hospital. I would like to visit him but I can't because it's only limited to one family member who can visit.After several days, I heard from a nurse the bad news. Scottie has died of coronavirus.I cried a lot before when I heard that. She was gone without me confessing to her how I feel. I cried every night then. It hurts so much even though we were not together. Because Scottie is an important person to me. There are so many things I want to say to her that I can't say because she's gone... even if I scream, she won't hear me.I'm praying that Scottie shows me even if it's just a ghost. I wish I had a third eye just to see her. That's my only wish. But no matter how much I cry, Scottie doesn't show.Until one night...I woke up because it seems like someone is whispering my name. I didn't see anyone in my room when I opened my eyes.Then suddenly someone whispered my name again near my ears. And I can't deny it. That was Scottie's voice.After that, it was like someone sat beside me that I couldn't see and my whole body was wrapped in cold like someone hugged me that I couldn't see... then the voice whispered..."I'm always here, Lyndon."When my body's cooler gone I cried so much. I know Scottie came to visit me even though I haven't seen him.Right now I'm still feeling sad. I'm back from work in the hospital but I'm sad to go to work because I know I won't see Scottie who always smiles at me when we meet before.Maybe in the afterlife Scottie found out how I looked at him. I don't know if Scottie has an eye on me either. Most importantly, I was happy to meet him and I will never forget him.Scottie, thanks for the one night you came to visit. Wherever you are, I hope you know that I love you...- Lyndon
