Blue Box

Just like real weddings with tiny tokens for the guests, I have also prepared blue boxes, one for each of my guests- Yen, Nyke, and one for my co-celebrant, Edmund.

I bought 3 flat boxes from National Bookstore last Sunday but when I saw this blue box in Greenhills, I thought the size and configuration were more appropriate.

I was in Greenhills yesterday. I went inside this jewelry shop to have my old necklace and bracelet repaired kasi naputol.

While waiting, I noticed this lady with very long hair.

A——– Miss, ilang taon bago humaba ng ganyan ang buhok mo?
Miss—– Isang taon.
A——– I don’t think so.
Miss—– Sunsilk pink, malakas magpahaba.
A——– ano yon, shampoo?
Miss—– Oo. Araw-araw ako nagsa-shampoo.
A——– di ang gastos sa shampoo nyan? At mahirap matuyo.
Miss—– Limang piso isang sachet. At sais yung conditioner.
A——– Ang nagagastos mo sa isang buwan ay three hundred plus a month and four thousand pesos a year sa shampoo and conditioner mo lang.

A——– Miss, magkano yang blue box?
(Siguro 50 pesos lang ito sa 168, pero sa traffic, pagod, abala at gasolina, mas mahal pa aabot, kaya dito na lang).

Miss—– P250.
A——– Tatlo ang kukunin ko, may discount ba?
Miss—– P200, anong kulay? Red?
A——– Blue, lahat blue.
Miss—– Eto , pink, maganda rin.
A——– Yung blue.
Miss—– Eto oh, yellow.
A——– Miss, blue, ang sabi ko blue, lahat blue.
Miss—– Kung red?
