“Kahit sa hollow block, adobe, marmol o kahit pa sa bato kung saan hinugot ni King Arthur ang Excalibur mo itaga, hinding- hindi mangyayari ‘yun!” ganting hiyaw ng abogada. “Unggoy!” Pagkatapos ay tumalikod ulit.
Akmang hahakbang muli ito palayo ng magsalita ulit ang lalaki. “Talaga? Kakain mo ‘yang sinasabi mo, balang araw! Ay, hindi pala. Next month! Next month hahabul- habulin mo na ako!”

Laglag ang panga ng babae. Aba’t! Sagad sa buto ang kakulitan nito! “May Asperger’s Syndrome ka ba?”
Sandaling nag- isip ang lalaki bago ngumiti ulit, “Bakeettt??”
“HINDI AKO HIHIRIT NG PICK- UP LINE!!”
