My sister sent me several rolls of gift ribbons. They reminded me of what happened to Edmund’s sister, Nenet.
Nenet went to Divisoria before Christmas to buy ribbons.
Maybe they’re giving away lots of gifts that she had to travel from Ayala Alabang, brave the half-day traffic just to buy cheaper ribbons.
It’s fun to go to Divisoria but not during the holidays.
Instead of riding in a car, she rode with their truck driver, maybe the guy was also buying things from Divisoria. While they were stuck in traffic around Divi (Tondo), it started to rain. She couldn’t close the window because there was no air-condition. She couldn’t open it either for security reasons. She kept it half close half open.
A big guy appeared beside the passenger window. She said his built was similar to that of Derek Ramsey, wow, what a comparison. He demanded her to open the door. He couldn’t wait, he reached for the door’s lock and opened it himself, pushed Nenet so he could sit beside her.
He poked a knife at her “pera lang ang kailangan ko”. She gave him her wallet which also contained her cellphone. She was worried that it also had her business cards.
Good thing the guy didn’t stab her. Most criminals hurt their victims even if they surrender their belongings.
