“nasa rob place ako now, nakita ko ang batang ito na parang naliligaw, itinuro ko ang way palabas, sabi niya di raw siya naliligaw, naghahanap daw siya tindahan ng cake, bday daw kasi ng kapatid niya, 2 yrs old, sabi ko, samahan ko siya, pero 40 pesos. lang pala ang pera niya, medyo may kaunting halaga naman tayong natanggap today, walang tigil na nagpasalamat ang bata, taga pandacan daw siya, iyon lang
magandang materyal marahil ito sa isang kuwentong pambata
pero higit pa rito, may isang wish tayong natupad ng bata para sa kaniyang kapatid”
