by Ardy & Dave

 True enough, after Ma;am Ardy drank her bottle of soda, she approached me and definitely said: MOADTO GYUD TA SA MUNISIPYO. ATO GYUD NGA PAKIGKITA-AN ANG SUSPECT.

I said, “HA? NA PUD?”

Ma;am Ardy did not care what I said, Maybe, she did not evem hear me say “HA? NA PUD?”  

I was really kind of surprised about the decision of Ma’am Ardy to see the suspect because I thought the last instruction I heard from her was: “It is getting late. Manguli na ta!”

But I quickly realized that Ma’am Ardy is known to be a risk taker. She also dares what is rare. She will never stop stop until all stones shall have been turned. She is an example of the saying, “It there’s a will, there is a way.” She is also practicing the theory which says: “If there is a way, then she will!”

After I left my dining seat to get another glass of water, I proceeded to the another long table in an ante room. It was sort of antiquated matching the pulse of the beautiful ante room. After another glass of water, I went back to the main dining table. But I suddenly stopped as I heard that the topic about Mary Joy was resurrected by the group. Some of the questions discussed were:

  • Dili kaha nga na-ibog ang suspect ni Mary Joy kay hitsuraan man ang dalagita?
  • Ngano man gyud nga wala man makatabang sa panghitabo ang iyang inahan, si Laura, nga daghan man sila uban iyang mga anak?
  • Nganong wala man pud takbasa sa suspect si Laura nga diha man unta pud siya? Wala man gani koy nakita nga samad niya ug bun-og ba kaha.
  • Ngano man gyu nga si Mary Joy ra man ug kadtong iyang manghud (nga anak sa suspect) ang gi-ayo ayo ug samad sa suspect?
  • Ngano man nga ang suspect sige man ug tutok sa mga higalang lalaki ni Mary Joy niadtong hapon sa dihang nagpa tutor si Mary Joy sa iyang lesson?
  • Unsa kahay position ni Mary Joy sa dihang allegedly gitikbas siya nga ang iya mang mga kamot maoy nangaputol?
  • HALA NO? 

Then, somebody loudlay asked: GUSTO MO MUTAN-AW SA SUPECT? GUSTO MO NGA MANGADTO TA SA MUNISIPYO? (To be continued)
