laughed at the promise. It's probably because I was surprised that a dirty child was clinging to me. Why should I be happy, right? "Naturally, I was surprised, Gen. Maybe later it will be kicked and bitten." "There are no ghosts here. There are no ghosts. There are monsters." This is the answer. "You know, it's amazing that you know folk tales. Do you know the words you use in Tagalog? Can't it be Korean, Japanese, Russian, or Italian... Why Filipino and English?" I asked wonderingly. Of course, I'm Filipino, I just happened to ask here.

The Bali Girls of course accepted him wholeheartedly afterwards, especially because he and their outside blocker Trish are actually an item now, but, and at Babylee’s own suggestion, he no longer joined their sleepovers. From Mrs. Lapuz, Kate had heard stories about an unspecified hometown as Kate was growing up. During bedtime storytelling, Mrs. Lapuz, who liked going all out, getting into character and changing her voice, told her tales a la Hansel and Gretel, but the grimmer and definitely scarier version because it sounded like it had been lifted from real-life superstition – or what was, in Kate’s own words, “rural legends”, because they retained distinct motifs of countryside animism.

Inilubog ko ang aking mga paa sa kulay pink na buhangin at malaya kong tinanaw ang malawak at medyo maalon na karagatan. Doon ay muli kong sinariwa ang mapait na love story ko na naganap sa Maynila. Love story na kung saan ay ako lang ang nakakaalam ng totoong kuwento. At ako ang naging pangunahing tauhan dito.

Wala ring makapag-isip. "Saka dapat yung story kabisado ng lahat." "Uhmmm... Hansel and Gretel.!" Nagsitinginan sila. "Red Riding hood na lang para masbata lalo.!" Pilosopo ni Dino. "Taken na kasi yung Beauty and the Beast. Yun pa naman ang master piece ng taon ngayon." Wala...di aki makaimik... Sila na ang bahala.... saka baguhan ako dito.

dagdag niya. Is that even a good thing? Well, this is Philippines. Theater is something old for this country. Hindi ito katulad ng mga pelikulang inaabangan at pinagpipilahan sa sinehan. At isa pa, after the chaos I made that stained lalo na't Pilipinas 'to? This is something impossible. But not counting on last night's event. Ang daming tao! Iniisip ko palang ulit ay parang susumpungin na ako sa kaba!

The first performers were grades 7 and they danced. Next is grade 8 students. Jeez! They made the whole court sad. They sang “Huwag ka nang umiyak”. The second singer sang “Kahit Isang Saglit” while the third was “Remember Me”. Is there a burial? I feel sleepy because of their performance. [Huwag ka nang umiyak, Kahit isang saglit, and Remember me are one of the famous Filipino songs that are popular in the Philippines.] The next performers are 9th-grade students. They are acting Romeo and Juliet with Love Story by Taylor Swift as background music. The others played by Noli Me Tangere.

Tawanan na naman. Habang nakatingin ako sa kanila sa ilalim ng papalubog na araw ng Antipolo, habang umiingay ang paligid namin dahil sa samu’t saring kwento ng panalo at pagkatalo—napangiti ako kasi minsan, hindi pala tungkol sa medals at hindi rin tungkol sa rankings kundi tungkol sa katotohanang kahit ilang beses kang mapagod, bumagsak, o masaktan—bumabalik ka pa rin. Long Story Short, I survived.

magaslaw, kalog, kabisado ang bawat galaw sa Maynila. "May kulang pa ba sa mga ikinuwento mo sa akin kaya ka nagbalik?" tanong ni RaiLen nang buong katamlayan. Nagpapatuka ito ng mga manok, itik at mga bibi. Titingin-tingin lang si Jorge. Nasisiyahan siyang masdan ang simpleng ganda nang dalaga. Malamig sa mata. Mahinhin. "May mga tenga ka pa ba para makinig sakin?" ganting tanong ni Jorge na nakidakot na rin nang palay at inihagis sa mga manok.

Mara laughed; this kid is really smart. "Yes, sort of, Quil. But it’s Tagalog, a language from the Philippines. You know the Philippines, right?" Quil nodded. "Yes, mother superior said it’s a tropical group of islands near the Pacific Ocean, and I learned that the Philippines has three main parts: Luzon, Visayas, and Mindanao. I wonder what the Philippines looks like," they added. "Don't worry, Quil, we will visit the Philippines soon," Mara said to them.
