Sa aking puso, maaari akong mabuhay at ang kapalaran ay mananatili sa aking panaginip. Ang pag-asa ay bigla itong dumating ...hindi inaasahan…. "Kaibigan, ikaw ba ang ... Ibig kong sabihin…sa barko na nagmumula sa Bacolod City?" Tanong ng lalaking hindi ko kilala. Pero sinagot ko siya, "Oo, kumusta?" "Nasaan ang iyong mga bagahe, naglalakbay ka nang walang dala ... Ibig kong sabihin bag, supot o anumang bagay?" Tanong niya. "Bakit ka nagtatanong?" Galit kong sina
