i was riding the bus on the way to bicutan to process some papers. in one of the bus' many stops, an old guy gets in, scans the seats and finally chooses to seat beside me. the bus begins to move.
he motions to the conductor and when he comes asked, "magkano ba para dalawa papuntang alabang?". the conductor was surprised. but he complied, giving a figure and the guy paying in coins the exact amount.
i wondered, this guy came in alone and will definitely go down alone. why in the world would he want to pay for two?
then i thought of something - maybe the guy lost his wife. maybe they are from alabang or were supposed to go there. maybe because he loved her so much, he feels her presence wherever he goes.
maybe i'm pushing it too far with that theory. but if that was really true then everything makes sense.
at least to me.

oo nga. kakapanood ko lang kasi ng isang drama. namatay yung tatay ng bida. e dapat manonood sila ng sine sa weekend. ginawa niya, bumili siya ng dalawang tiket at nanood siyang nakababa yung upuan sa tabi niya.
