Last night, my family and I attended an event at The Cambridge School Doha, my sister’s school. The occasion was called Food Festival where in variety of foods from different countries will be presented in each of their booths. The entrance fee was 20 riyals. My sister has already paid when someone offered her a free one. We went straight to the Filipino section but all we have reached was Pancit. It was delicious. My sister bought ice candy for 2 riyals at the adjacent stall. We then searched for drinks, and then went on the British stand for cakes and pancakes. My sister and I was about to go the water closet when the name of her Filipino classmate was called to perform on stage. We went back, actually my sister ran back, to where our parents were. After Jana’s performance of Miley Cirus’ Party in the USA, we decided to go home. Walking to the exit, we encountered Sister Gemma and pointed Iya, daughter of Brother Noel Manalese. She plays the keyboard. Cheska and I went to her at the field. We had exchanged hi’s and hello’s and immediately separated. Sister Gemma called me just to whisper “Hindi na kayo close ni Iya ano? Magkaiba na kayo?” Was she talking about the height? Of course not, she was saying that it has been a long time since Iya and I was not able to be with each other. I reflected and found out that Iya and I were not really close even before. I could only remember one time that we were together and that is when we attended a British Church’s fellowship. That’s all. We had only talked to each other for one day. She was so quiet and so was I. Back to the Food Fest, we were about to go out to where we entered when a Kabayan told us that “Entrance po yan, dun po sa gate na tuk, tuk, tuk, maingay ung exit.” Haha! He was really funny. He even made those sound effects in directing us where the exit is. We went home. My parents attended the bible study. I practiced keyboard and attended the eating.
