The Antique Roadtrip

April 30, 2016

The boys and I (Rens, Ken, Saj, Gin and myself) went on a road trip down south to San Juan, Antique, Philippines to celebrate their town fiesta.

Too I bad I wasn’t able to take as many pictures as possible because of connectivity issues.

Anyway, the food was overflowing! From every house we’ve visited, sumptuous meal were on display for our consumption. And I don’t think I’ve eaten as much as I did over the weekend.

But more than the wide array of dishes served, what I enjoyed the most was the very scenic town and, as I have an affinity with open waters, the beach!

Below are some of the pictures I’ve taken using only my mobile phone. Hope you guys like it!

“Marc”

“Po?”

“Halika sandali”

“Bakit po?”

“Open mo nga yung electric fan anak at naiinitan ako”

“Opo”

I entered her room, shocked at what I saw.
Her sitting at the side of the bed,
Trash bin held tightly.
And blood…
Fresh blood…
All over the floor.

I sat next to her and started rubbing her back.

“OK ka lang po ba ‘Ma?”

“Paki tapat mo sa’kin yung electric fan ‘nak ko”

I did what she asked and sat back next to her.
She looked at me and said

“‘Wag mo hahawakan yang dugo”

I held her arm and replied

“Opo”

She coughed. But not just any ordinary cough.
She coughed again and there was blood.

“OK ka lang po ba ‘Ma? Uminom ka ba ng gamot kanina?”

She looked at me again with tears in her eyes

“Pa’no ka na ‘pag wala na ako?”

“Ano ka ba ‘Ma?!…
