Halos wala ring alon ng umagang iyon kaya’t mabilis akong nakalangoy sa mas malalim na parte. I was professionally taught how to dive and swim kaya hindi ako takot na sumuong sa kailaliman ng dagat.

You know what the perfect battle cry would be?” “What?” “I’m going to teach you a new word: Laumlayag.” “Laun… Is that a Visayan word?” “Nope. It’s an encanto word.

My head was spinning, and his words didn't make sense. I understood Tagalog but needed to be more fluent and needed help to grasp some exact meaning. 'Swerte' means luck, if I am not mistaken. Was he calling me lucky because he was gorgeous? Oh, gee! What was he saying?

"Let's go to Pidong. It will be fun there tonight; there will be dancing and dinner! Sakaryo will be there to help." I didn't answer right away because I was processing the words she said for a while. "Isn't it embarrassing?" I asked when I understood what she said. "I mean, I'm just new here, and they don't know me," I added. The old woman laughed. "Oh! Don't worry because I already told Pidong that I might take you with me when I passed by earlier. That one is fine, and he's complaining that his skittle is too latite." (Tagalog word, can't translate because of the province words flow)

He ignored the woman and continued walking while still carrying her and not letting his guard down in case of the enemy's sudden attack.
