Today I was at church to do rehearsals for the upcoming HOF and Cebuano services. Yes glory be to God I am now playing for his Name! Hitherto I have been always praying and wishing that one day I can be used by God in the music ministry. And at last, my prayer has been granted. Now I am playing the synthesizer. I really enjoy doing it. Anyway what I'm going to talk you is not about me playing but to one person whom I have not known quite well. I'll just name him Jehovah or J or short. And here goes my oration:
After we were done rehearsing, haply me and J got to go own the stairs together. And going down the stairs with someone is the most awkward feeling ever! But fortunately he dared to open a conversation with me (which in my case I could not because I don't have such guts). And he asked me if I was going home already. I said "yes" but it was a lie. I was not going home yet... I was about to be fetched by my aunt together with my uncle, brother, and cousin. Of course I just slipped my mouth off and still magage to rebut my statement. Well I think he was convinced. And so we exchanged some words with each other. And I found out where is he residing (although I perfectly knew where it is) and I also shared mine. I guess that's the only information I could remember from that conversation with him. But as we reached the ground level, he did a peculiar turn. He turned to the left and stared walking to that direction. I found it strange because he metioned earlier that he was going straight home but of course he has to ride some transportation because his house is quite far. That transporation is just ready across the street but he didn't crossed the street at all. Instead he started walking to the direction where possibly could lead him home. My hypothesis for this is that he had insufficient money in his pockets OR he is just meeting someone going somewhere and that he just made a white lie. I came to think of this: transportation fee from church to his recidence just costed around 8.00 or at most 16.00 (if he did a double ride). So I can say that my latter guess is more believable and practical. However if he really was in the former, well I'll be damned. Because I could have given him the price for such petty issue. I just hope he's okay and safe. Tomorrow we'll meet again with him, probably I'm gonna open this up... if I could dare. I ask Providence to grant me confidence. To be honest, I like to be his friend. He seems nice. And he always prefers solitude (which I do too). We can be a pretty good team. I just hope he's open for friendship with a miserable man like me.
