Saying the Final Goodbye

Goodbye 5 - Bonjour France

Goodbye 5 – Bonjour France

            I arrived in France at 10:00AM in their time only by land with the help of Leah, thanks sis! Now, I’m riding a car and I’m taking pictures to all beautiful spots here like the Eiffel tower and such. I wish I could drop there but I need to see Knight first so we can go together to visit the famous tower. Je t’aime Paris!

            I don’t know if the driver is Spanish or French so I’d talked to him in English,

            “Excuse me, where will you drop me by?”

            “At the hospital, Ma’am” Oh, it sounds like a Filipino huh?

            “Manong, pinoy po ba kayo? H’wag kayong mag-joke ah?”

            “Oo ija, ayos ba ang English ko? Akalain mong pinoy ka din pala, kanina ka pa kasi walang kibo eh!”

            “Ha-ha, sorry po. Masyado lang po akong nabibighani sa mga tourists spots dito.”

            “Try mong pumunta sa pinakamataas na building dito kapag gabi, magandang-maganda lalo na doon sa dinaanan nating tower.”

            “Opo, Eiffel Tower po yung tawag du’n.”

            “Anyway Ma’am, I’ll just drop you in the hospital as Ma’am Leah ordered.” Manong talaga, pwede namang mag-tagalog kasi pinay naman ang kausap niya nagpapaka-hirap pa. LOL

            “Merei!”

            “What is that po?”

            “Thank you in French…Gracias in Spanish!”

            “Ang galing naman po, ako po kasi nag-aaral pa lang. Here we are na po!”

            Pagkatapos akong i-drop sa hospital in Paris to be exact…I got a message from my Mom,

From: Mom

            Cassandra, can you call us?

To: Mom

            Later on, Mom. I just arrived in Paris. Don’t worry, I’ll be coming home soon. I miss you!”

            After I replied my Mom’s message, I called Leah.

“Bonjour Ate Leah, I just arrived safely. Merei!” [Merei = Thank You]

“Oh, that’s good. No problem, it’s my pleasure. Just wait for my Mere [mother] there outside, okay? Au Revoir! [bye]”

“Wait--”

            Ugh, stupid soeur [sister]. I didn’t meet their mother yet before! Sucks.

            Inunlock ko ‘yung phone ko to check the weather and it’s 4degrees. Sana ganito din sa Pilipinas, joke! I remember ‘yung Ratattouie, ganitong-ganito dito eh! Buildings tapos ‘yung mga famous restaurant and boutiques.Later on, excited to see the city lights every Night. Haayy, Knight nandito na ako…ba’t ka ba nasa ospital? Nurse ka na ba o Doctor?

            “Excuse me, vous etes Cassandra?” [Are you Cassandra?]

            “Oui.” [Yes] Gahd, na-speechless ako and I’m very shocked. Is this lady is Knight’s mother? Gahd, she’s so pretty! Grabe na-down ang beauty ko, LOL. Hindi na ako nagtaka kung ba’t ang guwapo ni Knight…mana lang sa mother!
