How much emotional baggage and depression could drive a man to involve others to his dilemma? How could a policeman who had served well in the past decades become so full of anger? I cannot blame Sr. Inspector Rolando Mendoza, but I do not agree with his means. May God be our source of strength... and justice. There goes media mileage mare… hay, today is truly uneventful.

And then Lolo Esting looked at me, and told me "Ang mga Lola mo, mga segunda mano" (your grandmothers are second-hand) pertaining to Lola Pat and Lola Coring who are their respective second wives. They were laughing (of course the Lolas weren't there hehe). But since I have never known my "real" grandmothers, I really consider Lola Pat and Lola Coring as the real ones. Especially Lola Coring, who took care of me when both my parents had to leave Sual. Sigh. I would surely like to see Lola Pat soon. oh i remember when Lola Anday (Garcia) passed away and we were having lunch at her house in Sual, Lolo Juan and Lolo Esting (Mama’s father) were there talking.
