Isang Liham

Pansamantala, habang wala pa akong naisusulat na bago, isingit ko muna itong nabasa ko sa imeyl. Isang liham. Tama na ang ganitong intro, umpisahan mo na ang magbasa.

Dear Ate Charo,

Thank you for considering this letter of mine. I'm writing about Ben. We're in our twenties and both work in Makati . In fact, we used to be officemates. I've known him for almost two years and all the time, I've been in-love with him, although we are just friends and he has a girlfriend he intends to marry.

Ate Charo, I can't help but fall in love with him. He's perfect! He's responsible, intelligent, resourceful, thoughtful, loving, sweet, caring, upright, kind, family-oriented, and a God-fearing individual. His good looks are just an added bonus. I can't believe such a man still exists today and I will forever be thankful for his friendship.

It is a pain to be so in-love with him because he and his girlfriend are perfect for each other and are so happy being together. I don't know if he's aware of my feelings for him, but winning his heart, I think, is out of the question. His girlfriend is too precious for him. Losing her would truly hurt him, and I don't want to see him in pain. I know, however, that a part of me wishes he would reciprocate my love, but he's just too good for me. He deserves someone better, like the girl he has now.

Knowing he's happy with her is enough consolation for me. I want his happiness even if it would mean my own despair. God knows how much I'm suffering. Writing this letter alone is already a torture. I've been trying very hard to forget him. I've done ways I know to free myself. Pero ang kulit talaga ng puso ko, ayaw sumunod. Ate Charo, I haven't seen or talked with him for a long time and I thought his absence would somehow cool down the feeling, but it hasn't. I don't want to miss him, but I do miss him terribly. How can I forget him?

Whenever I see a place, a thing, or a situation, my mind automatically associates it with him. His memories occupy most of my waking and sleeping hours. His face pops into my mind in the middle of my lunch, when I'm talking with my friends, cleaning my house, or just doing something which has nothing to remind me of him. Odd, but true. I'm not bitter, Ate. I don't blame myself, him, nor God for this situation. As a matter of fact, I'm thankful. Painfully odd as it is, this situation has made me the mature person I am now. But I can't help ask myself why should someone fall for another when they are not meant for each other? Why Ate Charo? Why?
You know Ate, whenever I pray, I always ask God to help me let go of this love. I just want to feel the same way he feels for me... as a friend and nothing more. I know I can get through this because I believe that God wouldn't give me something He knows I couldn't handle. Someday I will be able to smile again without being hurt when I remember him. God has His reason for all of these and until I know the reasons, I want to hear words from you. Attached is my picture to show my sincerity and let you decide if am really not meant for his love.

Please Ate Charo, help me.

Sincerely,
Berta Ang Kasagutan...

"Especial Surprice" Letter

Minsan naka-inuman ko sa way-em itong kaibigan nating si Jojitah. Ate Jojitah na pala, kasi aminado na siyang matanda na siya. Nabanggit ko sa kanya na hindi ako magsusulat ng mga labistori ko dito sa blag na ito. Sinabi din sa akin ni Mamiyeng na subukan ko din daw. Aminado na din yang si Mamiyeng na matanda na siya. Puro na lang gurang ang nakakausap ko. Whew!

Ang ginawa ko naman, naghalukay ako ng baul ko, nagbabaka-sakaling may mahagilap na kwentong pwedeng isingit dito. At heto nga ang nakita ko. Isang sulat. Hmm. Hindi siya normal na sulat lang. Pitong pahina ng kuponban na may isteypol sa dalawang sulok sa taas at isa sa gitnang taas. Kulang na lang eh samahan ng polder para pwede nang ipasa sa titser, dahil mukha ng proyekto sa iskul.

'Yung kauna-unahang pahina, ay isang liham. Makikita niyo ang larawan kung ano ang nakasulat.

Kung hindi niyo naman mabasa dahil may edad ka na, malabo na mga mata mo, klik mo na lang 'yung larawan para lumaki. Kung hindi niyo pa rin mabasa ang nakasulat sa larawan, magpatingin ka na sa mental ospital espesyalista sa mata.

Mangiyak-ngiyak ako habang binabasa ko 'yan. Napaluha ako sa sulat niya dahil sa ingles niya at sa ilang ispeling. Bakit hindi na lang siya nagtagalog para mas madali ko naintindihan. At 'yung pangalan ko! Ako lang ang sumusulat ng tunay na pangalan ko dahil ayaw ko ikalat. Masyado akong nababaduyan sa pangalan ko, tapos ginawa pang "B" 'yung "V" ko! 'Yung ibang pahina naman at naglalaman ng mga kotabol kowts at iba't ibang kalandian, kadramahan, kaartehan, kakornihan, kasabihan na may kasama pang mga larawan ng kung anu-anong hindi ko maintindihan.

Talagang todo-eport sa paggawa dahil kolorpen pa mismo ang ginamit na panulat sa anim na pahina. Sa unang pahina lang siya gumamit ng bolpen. Hindi ko pa siya kilala nung alayan niya ako ng ganyang klaseng sulat. Marami pang sumunod na talagang nagpasakit ng ulo ko.

Balak ko isulat ang kwento niya-slash-namin nung panahong hindi pa uso ang teks kaya sa sulat na lang dinadaan. Pinag-iisipan ko lang kung kaya ko bang magsulat ng tungkol sa labistori ko.

Kung sa tingin niyo eh hindi kayo makatingin, at kung sa palagay niyo eh hindi kayo mapalagay, tulungan niyo na lang akong magdesisyon. Kung ikakalat ko ang aking mala-Maalaala Mo Kaya labistori.

Persona Ingrata!

Muli ko na namang nasilayan sa aking mga mata ang isang liham mula sa isang babae. Isa yata itong dayariya. Hmm... parang sakit sa tiyan 'yun ah? Dayari pala ang ibig kong sabihin. Matagal na itong nakakalat sa mundo ng sayber, pero subukan kong ilathala ulit dito.

Pakiintindi na lang po, taglish ito pero may mga parte pa rin ng sulat na ang hirap unawain. Kaya umpisahan na natin ang pagbabasa. Mas maganda kung basahin natin ito "with fillings."

We’ ve been friends for a long time ago. We come from the same alma mother. Actually, our paths crossed one time on another. But it’s only now that I gave him a second look. I realized that beauty is in the eyes. The pulpbits of my heart went fast, really fast. Cute pala siya. And then, he came over with me. He said, “I hope you don’t mine. Can I get your number?” Nag-worry ako. What if he doesn’t give it back? He explained naman na it’s so we could keep intact daw. Sabi ko, connect me if i’m wrong but are you asking me ouch? Nabigla siya. Sagot niya, The! Aba! Parang siya pa ang galit! Persona ingrata!!! Ang kapal niya! I cried buckles of tears.

Na-guilty yata siya. Sabi niya, isipin mo na lang na this is a blessing in the sky. Irregardless daw of his feelings, we’ll go ouch na rin. Now, we’re so in love. Mute and epidemic na ang past. Thanks God we swallowed our fried. Kasi, I’m 33 na and I’m running our time. After 2 weeks, he plopped the question. “Will you marriage me?” I’m in a state of shocked. Kasi mantakin mo, when it rains, it’s four! This is true good to be true. So siyempre, I said yes. Love is a many splendor.

Pero nung inaayos ko na ang aming kasal, everything swell to pieces. Nag-di-dinner kami noon nang biglang sa harap ng aming table, may babaeng humirit ng, “Well, well, well. Look do we hav e here.” What the fuss! The nerd ng babaeng yon! She said they were still on. So I told her, whatever is that, cut me some slacks! I didn’t want this to get our hand kaya I had to sip it in the bud. She accused me of steeling her boyfriend. Ats if! I don’t want to portrait the role of the other woman. Gosh, tell me to the marines! I told her, “please, mine you own business!” Who would believe her anyway?

Dahil it’s not my problem anymore but her problem anymore, tumigil na rin siya ng panggugulo. Everything is coming up daisies. I’m so happy. Even my boyfriend said liketwice. He’s so supportive. Sabi niya, “Look at is this way. She’s our of our lives.”

Kaya advise ko sa inyo - take the risk. You can never can tell. Just burn the bridge when you get there. Life is shorts. If you make a mistake, we’ll just pray for the internal and external repose of your soul. I second emotion.

Sana ay may naintindihan kayo sa mga sinulat niya. Adios!

Hate Letter

Habang nagsesearch ako ng mga "types of letter" sa internet, tulad ng Application letters, Business letter, Love letters at kung anu-ano pa. Nang mabasa ko itong isang kakaibang sulat. Isang Hate Letter?

Hindi ko alam kung totoo ito o hindi, pero nakasaad naman sa isang websayt na nakuhanan ko nito na hindi daw ito gawa-gawa lamang ng kung sinu-sino. Isang sulat daw ang nakita nila sa isang bar sa Maynila. Iningatan nila na manatili sa orihinal na pagkakasulat at walang kahit isang letra man lang ang nabago sa nasabing sulat.


Ating basahin ang nilalaman ng sulat. Mas maganda kung basahin natin na may kasamang feelings para mas enjoy. Hehehe...

To Marjie,

I am not surprise or wander why Dennis leave you. Why? What reason you can think about but you're very fat body. I thought before that Dennis only use me to his toy but sooner and later I'm realize that he really can't not beared or stomached to be with you anymore because at first,Dennis say he could not stand you're habit of making pakialam all his walks [lakad] and always calling to their house what he go home or this or that and then he say he get ashame to met iether in school or in his family and then asking you to exercise you're very very ,very fat body but you hate it thoughth your the most preetiest girls he knows about what do you think you are "Beautiful Girl " of Jose Marie Chan even you are beautiful face to your think) you do not have the right to called me whatsoever or else different name one time or the other for the real purposed to insults my personality because I'm never call you names iether in the front of Dennis or in the backs of Dennis, but if you start already to calling me different name, I don't have any other choice but to call you other different name to like you are a PIG, FAT, OBESSED, OVERWIGHT, AND UGLY SHAPE girl. Shame to you're body that is to a BUDING. You can't not blame Dennis for exchanging you to me because I am the more sexier than you when you look to us in the mirror. I'm repeat again that you are like Ike Lozada when she is a girl.

FROM: THE SEXIEST GIRL OF D.M.

P.S. You say that I'm the bad breathe but who is Dennis want to kissed. Me or you? You or me? And the final is me. There you go.
