I got tired listening to Dionisia aka Junie’s life story. I excused myself and told her I had to go.
I was disoriented when I went out of the Worlwide Building. I ended up on an elevated walkway.
20 years ago, I didn’t mind the long walk from Central to Causeway Bay, mas malayo pa nilalakad ko. But now, hindi na kaya, madali na akong mapagod.

I asked for directions from two OFWs but they gave me two different answers.
I asked a 3rd one but she gave me an incoherent answer kasi she was eating turon. Then a friend of hers appraoched us and asked her “siya ba ang amo mo?” Muntik ng nabilaukan yung tinanong nya. I smiled and left. The good thing was, mukha pala akong amo. Pero I wouldn’t mind if she had asked “kasama mo rin sa trabaho?”. Okay lang sa kin yun.

I asked a policeman standing at the entrance of the MTR station instead and he advised me to just take the train because it would be a lot easier. I did.

There was a street fair near Sogo and along the street going to Park Lane Hotel.
I bought a maleta for HK$350 from a store across Sogo department store.
Hila-hila ko while I made usyoso the street fair. Ang hirap pa kasi merong natatalisod.
