It was the last day of the school year and a party was held for the class. There was this boy in the class who separates himself from the rowdy ones. He was a silent and intelligent boy just minding his own business. He did not care what most of the boys get interested with.

He got his fill of buco pandan and went back to where his friends were. One of the bullies suddenly threw a small stone to his cup of buco pandan. Without a word, the boy threw out the contents of his cup to the bully. Shocked, the bully stood up attempting to box the boy. The boy’s friends surrounded him protecting him from the bad boy. The bully swore and persisted to hurt him. The boy was led out and away from him, in tears, with thoughts that why there are demons living alive on earth.

The bully never touched him after the incident. The boy never talked to him anymore.

The following day, the hostess of the party, still ecstatic of the positive remarks, heard a comment from a friend that one of the visitors is complaining.

Hostess: What about?

Friend: There were excess, according to her, because the food was measured and it was the waiter who puts food on their plates.

Hostess: Is she nuts? Did she not hear what the emcee said about the food? Grace said they can go back anytime if they wanted to. No holds barred.

Friend: Well, it can be two things. She doesn’t understand English or she’s just plain stupid.

Daughter of the Hostess: It’s plain stupidity. Those people cannot find anything wrong about the party so they say words without meaning even if nobody asks them their opinion.

Hostess: I am not going to be affected. They mean nothing to me. But for goodness’ sake, do you remember the last time they had a party, they were choosing who to give 8 oz Coke. There was discrimination in the party. If you’re not well-to-do, no softdrinks.

Daughter of the Hostess: And why are you affected? Why the reaction?

Hostess: It’s so damn annoying, that is!

Daughter of the Hostess: But you said you are not affected.

In an isolated area of the university, an unknown assailant suddenly grabbed and dragged her to a more hidden area.  She was pushed to the ground and was about to go over her.

“Wait!”

The rapist startled, stopped, “What?!?”

“Look, can we go to a classy place?  Look at this place.  We can’t enjoy here. Besides,  I just bought new panties!”

After two years, her friend sent her a message. With a jolly thought, she answered and the exchange of messages lead to a phone call. She was very excited because it was such a long time she had not heard anything from him.

They told each other stories about what transpired the two years they had seen each other. Then the stories went back to the times when they first met each other. They recalled the times and their impressions. Out of the blue, her friend hesitantly told her, “You know, when I first saw you, you really caught my attention. I really got attracted.”

She was taken aback by the sudden confession and though it had nothing to do with her anymore, she felt a little excited, “Uhmm… so what happened?”

A burst of laughter came from the other line, “Then I saw your foot and your sandals! Where do you buy those sandals? They are so outdated. And your feet, bwa ha ha ha, they looked liked unwashed ginger pieces. I was really turned off.”

She banged the phone and promised herself not to talk to him anymore.
