Just a normal day at the office then like the usual thing pag afternoon na is may nag aaya ng meryenda. One colleague mention puto bumbong and it triggered a core memory I have associated with that word.

When I was in high school uso pa yung textmate. May naka textmate ako na classmate ng elementary classmates ko. Yes, I transferred kasi from my elementary school to another school for my secondary education.

Ito yung panahon na piso pa yung isang page ng text kaya hindi uso dito yung nonchalant messages. Unless afford mo, why not ‘di ba?

So every message has substance for a point of view of a high schooler. Hangang sa hindi na namin matiis mag settle sa trip ni mariz na mag touch touch ng lang ng self. We planned how we could be alone. Definitely hindi pwede sa kanya kanya naming place. So we usually meet somewhere discreet but dark. Hindi naman kami nag tsuktsakan agad. Kumbaga if this kind of thing is a major subject in college, nasa introduction pa lang… so yes, momol lang.

Madalas choice of place namin is yung isang underdevelop na basketball court na hindi pa tinapos nuon agad ng SK. Dun kami naglalaplapan ng malala hangang sa mahaldi na parehas yung labi namin.

For some reason, we didn’t try to touch skin to skin sa private parts namin pero we did try over our clothes like pressing my thing against her or her touching my thing over my shorts.

Payat si girl and hindi lang dahil bata pa kami that time. Until now alam ko hindi pa rin siya nagdadalaga e… hindi pa kasi siya pinamumukulan sa dibdib HAHAHAHA.

Then time flies at naputol yung communication namin… Comes college nagkaruon ako ng girlfriend na warfreak.

Naglalakad kami somewhere sa mall tapos nakasalubong namin itong si girl na kamomol ko earlier sa story. Since hindi lang naman siya mere ka momol, naging friend ko rin naman siya kasi kaibigan niya yung elementary group of friends ko din, we greeted each other and I introduce my gf properly. Then si ate girl invited me to drop by sa kanila to try their puto bumbong. Nagtitinda daw kasi siya as side hustle lang. Ang sabi niya “daan ka sa amin mamaya, ipapatikim ko sayo yung puto bumbong ko”

It was such an innocent remark lang talaga even sa akin na recipient. Pero nung kami na lang ng gf ko. Inaway ako for the reason na gusto niya ituro ko yung bahay ni girl at ayoko kasi hindi ko naman talaga gusto ang puto bumbong even until today. And I’m afraid of what she might do knowing her.

But I still end up telling her kung saan kasi same subdivision lang kami ni ate girl. And nakakapunta at nakaka stay na si gf sa bahay namin.

So pag uwi namin sa bahay ko, nagpasama siya duon kina ate girl. Nagtitinda si ate girl ng puto bumbong with her mom.

Si gf naman dun siya sa mom ni ate girl bumili. Ang tigas pa ng pagkakasabi niya ng “pabili nga ng isang PUTA bumbong” Napalingon si ate girl sa kanya at namula Tapos yung mom is hindi na lang pinansin. Ako naman hinila ko na si gf pauwi sa amin para pakalmahin.

Hiyang hiya ako kasi well known ang family ko sa community namin.

Anyway naghiwalay na rin kami ni gf na yun.

Yun lang.
