The Accident That Was

It was supposed to be a lunch date with three (actually, four, Ghing included) of my girl friends. We never thought that a simple lunch date would turn out to be a not-so-disastrous one.

It was like ages since we had Tin and Ghing with us. It was always Glenna, Iris and me. Since it was Tin's rest day, she joined us for (free) lunch courtesy of Iris, who just celebrated her first year with a big time company.

And since Tin would be driving her car, we decided to dine at Market! Market! for a change of scenery since it's always been Glorietta or Greenbelt for us. Off we go. We just decided to meet up with another friend, Ghing, since she worked at the vicinity. After all the troubles we had in finding where the exact location of Market! Market! is, we finally found the building parking across it. The only problem now is to find a parking space. If we only knew that the second level was not as crowded as the first one, we should have gone there instead of going in circles trying to find a space. We were like on our second attempt and we're about to go to the second level parking when we all hear a thud, like we're slightly thrown off our seats. The picture says it all.


Luckily, no one got hurt, but I guess the car owner, Tin, was a bit shocked of what happened. On my point of view, it was not our fault (really!), I saw the other car, a Chevrolet, slowed down, I guess, a few steps before they hit us. I was wondering then why still it happened since Chev's driver was aware that they did slowed down. He was just telling us that it has something to do with his brakes. I guess he was man enough to talk to us calmly and was aware that it was partly (but I think it was mostly) his fault. They settled what needs to be settled, exchanged numbers, signed papers then off we go to the second level to park. At last!

I almost forgot about Ghing who was to meet us up for lunch that turned to be a late lunch (it's more proper to say that it was an early dinner, rather than late lunch since it was already past 3PM). So much for wanting to have lunch with friends.

postscript:
Tin, I can't help myself but to get involved when you were talking to Mr. Chev. Without you knowing, I had this "tampo" because of something. I guess it's my nature to care, and that's how much I love you, all of you. (^_^)

It was a different story that you guys have to see how my body reacted to the foods that I ate, in that case, the anniversary cake. The cake was superb, it's just my allergy hinders me that day to finish what was left. :p

awww...i know you still have tampo noh. but i was really touched when you helped me talk to manong. And I know you love me - us. Love din naman kita eh. Yung sa davao tuloy yun. Im still checking the flights. Kung wala na yung promos ngayon, we can still wait a couple of weeks, feeling ko by july or august meron na naman. Same procedure na, ako na muna magpapabook, bayaran nyo na lang ako basta confirmed na yung cast of characters. :)

one year with a big time company? lolol

sorry, am reacting to an insignificant part of the whole story hehe.

it might be a little twisted but i think the whole accident was meant to mend the tampo thing too. hehe
