Serendipity, is it?

You have to welcome me back! LOL, wow it’s been a while since I’ve written anything coherent.

 

If my memory is not tainted, it was about a week ago when I was on a shuttle on the way somewhere when I overheard the conversation of the two women sitting in front of me. The younger woman is in the age of 30 and the older woman is in her golden age I presume. I’m never good at eavesdropping nor is it a habit of mine but at the time I couldn’t help myself but be engrossed with their conversation. I came to know that the younger woman is a dentist and they were talking about the common people they know. Towards the middle of the conversation, the older woman said “Ilang taon ka na ba?” – “How old are you?” the younger woman said “30” subsequently, the older woman asked another question “single ka pa ba?” –  “are you single?” the younger woman retorted “I’m very single” while giggling. Now wait, whatever it is that you are thinking now, I am telling you, YOU ARE WRONG. So let me continue…

 

They were both smiling while conversing. The older woman said “yung panganay kong lalake, lawyer at single pa, papaligawan kita ha?” – “my eldest son is a lawyer, I would like him to date you?” the younger woman responded positively with giggles and chuckles in between, repeatedly. It made me smile and listen more, I also noticed that the girl sitting on my left was also smiling vehemently and she tilted her head slightly forward just so she could hear them better. The older woman fired another question, “nagluluto ka ba?” – “do you cook?” the younger woman quickly responded “opo” – “yes” (with respect LOL)….sloth is taking over me, so I have to make this short.

 

As the older woman was ducking herself in satisfaction, she told the younger woman that she will have her son visit her soon in her clinic. While she was repeatedly accentuating her son’s visit, she took out her wallet and showed her son’s picture and the younger woman responded positively with giggles and zealousness. And oh, did I tell you that they were complete strangers to each other before they got on the bus.
