PBoyz’ Christmas Surprise
Three weeks ago, after all the crying, and mending friendships in our retreat, Mark promised me to wait for something in the third week of December. The guys are planning a little treat for me. But I don’t know what it is and who among them. Hmm.. It may be Mark himself, who happened to be the person I can drag along to any place I want to, the one who belongs to the No-Girlfriend-Since-Birth, the First-Time-Suitor, the Merman, or my Walking Diary. Or it may be Noli, the Sentimental Guy, whom I can always confide to when it comes to guy stuff. Or it may be Kuya Greggo, the Weird Kuya, the Always-Misunderstood. Or it may be Jim, the Ex-Turned-BestBuddy, and the Playboy-in-Denial who’s always keeping a shotgun beneath his tongue for me, claiming he knows all the wiles of men.
Of course, Pangz was just too busy with his girlfriend now that we wouldn’t mind not having him along in our walks and get togethers. And Allen does have a world of his own, and too preoccupied with his list of girlfriends. And Eufy who always gets missed out because he has things to do on his own, or maybe hanging out with Bonjing. But in any other way, these guys are just important in my world.
Our usual Tuesday and Thursday afternoons were spent on walks in the downtown. With a pot of boiling rice, and a couple of canned goods stewed in garlic and onion waiting for us in Kuya’s room. That would be enough lunch for five to six hungry mouths. And sadly, i can’t go along with them these last weeks because I was too busy with my stuff.
