“Dear mga Ate,
Ok lang na pinagtawanan nyo po ako kanina
Ikaw ba naman mag Tumbler ng Pepsi at gawing Lunch Box ang Creamline Ice Cream
Kakain po sana ako sa isang kilalang park ,
11:45Am na kasi nakakagutom na ,galing pa kasi akong sentro ng Sorsogon. May mga nakaupo rin sa unahan kumakain din. sobrang lakas ng tawanan ng grupo ng kababaihan syempre madami sila eh. Ng binuksan ko na ang Baon ko na double pa ang tawanan nila. Una hindi ko alam kung anu ba talga o sino ang pinagtatawanan Nila. Hanggang na banggit nila ang “oh pink sure yan ice cream na kanin” tumingin sakin ang grupo at nagtawanan ulit.
Sa totoo lang po nawalan po ako ng ganang kumain,uminum nalang po ako ng tubig at umalis then naghanap ng lugar para kumain.
Alam po ba ninyo mga Ate kung bakit yan po ang ginagamit kong Baonan ng kanin at lalagyan ng tubig?Dahil po gusto kong tulongan ang ating kalikasan na hindi mag kalat ang mga basura.
Sana din po wag nyo po gawin sa Iba ang ginawa nyo sakin dahil may mga Tao na hindi kayang bumili ng magandang Baonan Kaya mas pinili nila ang Ganyan.
Pakiusap lang po kung mabasa nyo po ito..hindi po ito patamapaalala lang po na ang buhay ay parang Gulong.
Salamat po.”
