The clouds were getting darker and we heard some “kulog” so we walked back to the house.
There were only 3 short parallel streets and one cross street in this barrio aside from the main highway.
Edmund and I are familiar with electric kilowatt hour meters because my Kuya Lito used to supply them to electric cooperatives in Luzon, to Meralco, National Power Corporation and to other countries like South America. In fact, when Julienne was only a year old, Edmund was sent to Korea together with two engineers for a month of extensive training on assembly and testing of kwh meters at the Goldstar factory in Korea.
When we saw these meters at the corner of the street, we concluded that the houses do not have individual meters installed at their vicinity and their power supply are operated by a cooperative.
While we were walking back, Edmund suddenly veered towards this house and greeted the old woman. She’s the mother pala of his playmate who is now a successful electrical engineer and contractor in Manila.
