Nag-agto sa motel si Pedring agod magpangalipay. Igto imaw sa Room 69.
“Sir, may kaibahan ka?”
“Owa ngani.”
“Gusto mo?”
“May mga picture ka’t mga baye nga pwede ko makaibahan?”
“Hara, Sir, pili eang.”
“Pwede raya?”
“Sige, Sir. Hueata eang. After 15 to 30 minutes, may manoktok ron kimo.”
Pagkataliwan it 20 minutos, may nanuktok sa room ni Pedring. Binuksan na.
“Tay!” hambae ku baye.
