From the time I was able to ride a bike, a motorcycle or a car, there are only four people who have made me feel safe during the ride. Whether it's a fast drive or a slow turn, I do not feel like dying the moment we reach the next curve.
Why am I in RECALL MODE? Well, for a week now, I have been going home through a single motor. It is known to many here in Cagayan de Oro as "habal-habal"... from Cathedral to Balulang, it will cost P 30.00, and I can go home fast. No more waiting for the multicab to be full and move. The drivers are careful but I am not exactly comfortable riding with strangers. Soon enough, the guys have become familiar and friendly but still, I do not feel safe. I silently pray during the ride, for God to keep us safe, the driver and I, as a little girl awaits my coming home.
I love my little girl... and since I am the only surviving parent she will ever know... I can't DIE now... NOT YET anyway... Dear God, please hear this prayer...
