Three Heroes early in the morning and doing good deeds makes me feel BETTER! :)
Yeheyyy…! I was a bit early in going to school…. It’s 7:20 when I left in our house…. So, I will arrive before 8:00 at school. It’s my first time!!!... When I’m about to ride in the “pedicab”, I saw an old woman that was our neighbor, she was alone. And when I ask her where she will go. She answered me, “Sa anak ko lang s may CAA”. Then I asked her again, “Nay, bakit po kayo mag- isa lng?. Di po ba kayo nila (mga ksama nya s bhay) ihahatid?. Bka ano po mangyari s inyo s my daan, masyado n pong delikado para s inyo”. . Then she answered me back, “Ay naku ineng, ako’y mainipin p nman. Ang tagal nilang dumating, sbi nila 8:00, anong oras na.!!. Mabuti n lang nkasabay kita. San nga punta mo, s maynila?? (Funny, hala… just kidding!).. I answered back, “Hindi po nay, s CAA din p0”. She answered again, “Ay edi sabay n lng tayo…” And I give her a big smile…: D... So, when we are on the “pedicab”, she keeps on telling me a story… After a million of years, were there in the highway. I handle her with care as if she was so fragile… Oh, I miss my mama in Bicol, (my lola)… Back to reality, we were in the “jeep” going to Casimiro, the people are staring at us,… I didn’t mind them because I was busy keep on staring in my wrist watch… It’s 10 minutes before *… Oh, I will be late….huhu… Fast forward…. We are riding in a “tricycle”, going to school.. But, wait! How is Lola??... If I go straight in our school, how is she??? .. Will I go straight in our school or will I stay with lola and guide her where she will go? Think, think, think…!. … After a million of years of thinking….. I decided to guide the “Lola” wherever she will go even though I know that I will be late… So where there in the “tricycle”, she keep on telling me the story again… And I keep on telling me, “Lola, wag po kayong uuwi ng mag- Isa ha, delikado po…” Then she responds, “Oo ineng, at ako’y mgpapahatid n lng s kanila.”... Then I took a deep breath… After a long silence… I was ashamed because it’s too far from what I expected… I ask Lola, “Lola san po banda yung s inyo??. Then she answered, “Ay, naku ineng, ako’y naliligaw n ata… tatlong buwan n ko di nkakapunta doon… Doon ata yun sa may palengke….” Then I took again a deep breath…. Then I said to myself, in my mind of course… “Naku, patay… pnu n 2???” ... Ktapusan q n ba??? :'( … haha… (Just kidding) … I decided to say “Manong, dito n lamang po kmi”… But the “manong” replied… “Eh, dun n lng nman yung may palengke eh… “ … Thank God… (Hero c manong)... :) .. Then, we were there na in the terminal going “somewhere else”… Sorry, I’m not familiar with the place… I know only our school & our home… :) … So there, I was about to call a “pedicab” but Lola told me, “Ineng wag na, malapit lng nman…” … So we walk, walk, walk, walk… Then, suddenly Lola stop, “Ay, parang di dito yun… Ay, pasensya ka na ineng, nliligaw n ata tayo… Di dito yun eh… Then, I was teary- eyed that time… “ … Then suddenly, Lolo came (another hero) :) ... Then he asked Lola, “ San punta nyo, k edna?” … then Lola said yes… Thank God… Another hero came… :) … Then Lolo gave us instruction if where is the way of Aling Edna’s house… We follow the instruction that was given…. After a million of years walking…………. There! Finally! But Lola said that… “ d pa d2 yun ineng…” … Oh, I thought it was… Then, we walk, walk, walk … Then suddenly Lola stops in a house……… she said, “ito n yun”…. Finally…. We found the house of Aling Edna…. Then Lola introduces me to her…. She’s thankful for guiding her and walk with her until we found the house…. :) … And me, I said “wala pong anuman, wag nyo po papauwiin c Lola ng mag – Isa ha?? … And Aling Edna said yes…. Lola hugged & kissed me after that incident…. I was teary – eyed that time.. Then, I started to walk away from Lola… Then, called a “pedicab”, and I said, “Manong, Southville lng po…” …then when I’m getting money in my wallet… Oh, I don’t have enough money going home… :( … Good thing is that my immediate head gave me money for my dinner because I am overtime that time in office work… So, she was my “third hero” … :) … Doing good deeds early in the morning makes me feel blessed and better… :) .. I have three heroes this day… :) … Hope Lola will be okay in going home… :)
