I UNFOLDED my legs when someone approached me from sitting in a steel bench inside the airport. I must say, I’m glad that they arrived ten minutes late.
“Ser, dumating na po ang sundo n’yo..” Said by one of the guard in the airport.
Kinuha ko ang maleta ko at isang duffel bag. I didn’t bring lots of clothes.
Ang guard na kumausap sa akin ay tiningnan ako, “Tulungan ko na po kayo d’yan Ser..” He even extended his arm to yank my bag.
“It’s okay. Thank you.” I firmly said to him. Kasunod ko siya habang tinatahak ang labas ng airport. I stopped when I saw Matteo’s driver and smiled at me. Nang tuluyang makalabas ay agad niya akong nilapitan at kinamayan.
“Welcome back to the Philippines, Sir Rix! Kamusta po ang byahe n’yo? Ako na po na d’yan!” Sunod-sunod niyang sabi sa akin.
