As I was reading an ebook (from my phone) last night (at around midnight), I was shocked to see someone calling.
What was more surprising was the number flashing on my screen:
0927-5**-4*3*
My thought: WADDAEFFF??? Why is my own number calling me?????!!! For a minute, I was honestly baffled (I thought my mind was playing tricks on me).
After I finally understood that it wasn't my number (the last digit was different), my mom asked me "why aren't you answering?". Against my better judgment, I pressed the answer button. The conversation went on like this:
Me: Hello? Sino 'to?!
Other line: Ahm, si Mark po.
Me: Sino ulit?
Other line: Si Mark po.
Me: Ahhh, okay. Teka lang ah...
And then I ended the call.
Mom: Sino daw?
Me: Mark daw.
Mom: Eh bakit mo binaba?
Me: Eh loko-loko lang yun eh. Boses tambay (sorry for being judgmental)
Mom: Kaw, malay mo si Mark Bautista yun
Me: ........
Mom: O kaya si Mark Herras (pasensya, kapuso Nanay ko)
Me ...
Mom: Sana kinausap mo, malay mo si Mark na kapitbahay natin o si Mark ... si Mark ...
Ako: *poker faced*
And then I burst out laughing (my mom did the same too). REALLY, sometimes conversations with my mom are so crazy! HAHAHA
