Maine

This is NOT my bag!!!

Maybe this Cruise is not a good idea at all, Maine figured how she managed to have the wrong bag - that neurotic Richard guy on the plane! Not only that they have the same jogger suit, they also have the same Adidas black bag.

Curiosity got the better of her so she opened the bag to see what else is inside. Plain white shirts, a couple of boxers, facial regimen kit - really just soap and moisturizer? But his skin is so...okay moving on, shaving cream, deodorant. A small box of vitamins and anti histamines. A book - The Origin by Dan Brown, just like what she is reading right now. And oddly enough, there is an old pink scarf - Cardam's scarf....just like the one in her bag, it was golden yellow and used to be her Mom's...

Richard

So...will he be able to unlock the mystery of Nicomaine in this bag? How convenient that they exchanged bags, she's probabaly thinking that he did this on purpose. Inside the bag are as follows - a yellow dress, yellow H & M bathing suit, plain white shirts and leggings. There is a bag filled with girly stuff - facial wash, toner and moisturizer, sun block and there it is Jo Malone American Pear. Books - The Origin by Dan Brown and Safe Haven by Nicholas Sparks, a picture fell, it was Nicomaine with probably two of her friends having fun at the beach...she is wearing a black and blue two piece swimwear. What captured his attention was the golden yellow Cardam's scarf - it looks a lot like the one from his Mom that he usually brings in his travels. Is this a sick joke universe?

Richard called Naval Officer Carla at the Passenger Service Office and told her to call him if a lady will complain about having the wrong bag.

C: Apprentice Faulkerson Jr., ano na namang kalokohan ito? But wait, may babaeng involved, masaya ito...

R: Ate Carla wag kang ano...basta pag may dumating dyan...

C: Na babaeng maganda, morena, 5' 4", expressive eyes, Angelina Jolie lips...at nakasuot ng Adidas jogger suit na kamukha sa iyo?

R: Yes Ate....how did you...

C: Nandito na siya bumaba ka na bago kita isumbong sa Tatay mo!

R: Thanks Ate Carla...padalhan kita ng kape...

C: Good Evening Madam how can I help you?

M: Hi...pinay ka di ba?

C: Opo!

M:Hay salamat di ako mahihirapan...kasi Ate Carla may nakasabay akong tukmol sa plane tapos nagkapalit pala kami ng bag! Paano kaya yun?

C: Eh bakit naman kc kau nagkapalit???

M: Eh kasi magkamukha kami ng bag...pati nga suot namin pareho eh.

C: Ahhhh....uyyyyy Good Evening Sir, how can I help you?

R: Good Evening...I would like to report...hey Nicomaine! Nagkapalitan tayo ng bag!

C: Magkakilala kayo???

M: Long story Ate Carla.... ikaw Richard, akina yang bag ko! Sinadya mo ito ano? Papansin ka eh!

R: Excuse me kasalanan ko ba na pareho tayo ng gamit? Panglalaki kasi ito bakit ka gumagamit ng ganito?

M: Eh anong pakialam mo!

Suddenly, a tall man in white uniform walks in... he's the Captain if Maine's memory serves her right...

C: Good Evening Capt. Faulkerson!

RS: Good Evening! RJ what is this? May kalokohan ka na naman ata...

M: RJ???

R: Richard Faulkerson, Jr., Apprentice Captain of PenStar Cruises at your service...

RS: Is he bothering you Ms....

M: Maine po...Nicomaine Mendoza Sir.

RS: Maine...such a unique name, alam mo hija kung hindi mo inaaway ang anak ko iisipin ko girlfriend ka nya eh...tignan mo pareho pa kayo ng suot.

M: Weird coincidence lang po! Nagkapalit din po kami ng bag....huy ibalik mo na ang bag ko!

R: At paano ko malalaman na hindi mo ginalaw ang bag ko?

M: Of course I have to...

RS: RJ, hindi iyan ang behavior ng gentleman (Maine shows her tongue at Richard) why don't you two sort this out in my office, Officer Carla please take them there...bring them coffee and snacks na din.

M: Thank you Captain!

At the Captain's Office

M: Okay let's settle this...I have to check your bag to find IDs or contact number, check mo wala akong ginalaw dyan...

R: Fine...ako din naman nag check ng bag mo... here...

M:Pwede ka naman palang magibg civilized eh

R: Sungit mo kasi...let me guess k k break up nyo lang ano?

M: None of your damn business...ikaw nga may scarf pa sa bag mo eh!

R: That's my Mom's...she died years ago, pag may cruise ako lagi ko siyang dala. It's her favorite Cardam's scarf.

M: Im' sorry...ako din naman may dalang scarf, also my Mom's...she died from car accident, with my Dad nung elementary ako.

R:Im' sorry....can we start over? Hi, Im' Richard, Apprentice Captain.

M: Alright...hi Richard, I am Maine, Sous Chef ng Bellevue Hotel but I am here on a vacation to forget certain things.

They shook hands and smile...at the corner of the room were Capt. Faulkerson Sr and Officer Carla...

RS: Carla....naiiyak ako!!! Ito na ba ang hnhintay ko?

C: Parang ganun na nga Boss...tignan mo tenga ng anak mo namumula...

RS: Hay ang saya....
