Part 6: THE REAL SURPRISE
so that was wengy's account. my turn--again.
i forgot to tell you that we had to stage another drama prior to our glorietta trip. tita cynthia instructed me to tell wengy to get cathie's suncel phone. tita had something VERY important to tell me.
after a very long series of convincing and lying ang arguing with her, she agreed to give her phone to him under my supervision.
with all the adrenaline rush and the hussle and bussle, we had no time to check our phones. while we were inside the taxi, i suddenly remembered i had to tell tita cynthia right away that we were already
free from cathie. we had three phones with us; wengy's mine and cathie's suncel. each phone had three missed calls, all from tita cynthia.
usually, we would smuggle wengy inside the dorm by sneaking him inside the dorm in the late hours of the evening when the guard was asleep. when we arrived, the guard was asleep. so i signaled for him to enter
but as he was entering, the guard woke up. he saw wengy and i. so, we had to go out again. it was 12 mn. we decided to go jogging in the ateneo campus and stay there until it was late enough so that when
we went back, the guard was asleep.
while we were jogging, tita cynthia called me up. i told her about my suspicion that cathie already knows about the entire thing. i narrated to her the instances and we both agreed my previous conclusion was
right. so, i also told her wengy and i have been having a hard time making up for a real surprise.
it turns out, she just had the thing to turn the entire party around.
she told me about the 2bU! section of the inquirer and how she wrote to the them for cathie's bday party.
as you all read in the papers, she asked them to represent her at the party. she told them about cathie's loves such as the eagles and the chucks. then she told me chris tiu was coming. i was shouting my heart out
in the middle of the night in the middle of ateneo. i knew how happy it would make cathie. then they would also try to bring other eagles. i was happy then. once again, i felt relieved.
so, amidst the happiness in my heart, the exhaustion of the entire day and the excitement for the party, my heart was pounding so hard, i knew i had to jog it out. wengy and i jogged.
before going back to the dorm, wengy and i decided to drop by 7/11. wengy bought food and we stayed there for awhile. then when we finally went back to the dorm (around 2am sunday), the guard was asleep
so wengy sneaked in.
we decided to postpone all the work later in the day because we were too tired. when we were doing our best to regain strength, the urge to sleep went away. but later on wengy was lured by the sandman.
so i worked on the movie until about 5am. my laptop kept on hanging. while waiting for my movie to be published, i napped a little an woke up at about 7am.
i kept bugging wengy to wake up and start working on the decors from 7.30-9.45am. but he eventually got out of bed by 10. we ate chippy for breakfast. (zero balance remember?)
so we slacked a bit and by 1pm wengy and i started working on the letterings. i chose the font. all of sunday was supposed to be planned from morning to afternoon but all our plans were shattered so we
just had to do what we remembered on doing.
