Joel: pating! pagtarong ug tabok, makulbaan ko pag ikaw ako kauban ba!
A few weeks ago…
Lyan: tia pataka lang ka ug tabok. pagnaligsan ka na kauban ta maulaw jud ko ba.
tiara: di ka maguol?
Lyan: dili. maulaw jud ko.
A few days ago:
Stev: tiara! tanaw pud oi! aresgada kaayo ka noh, nidiretso lang ka ug tabok!
Just this afternoon (through sms):
tiara: D! I almost got caught by a traffic aide near claveria!
D: nag-unsa na pud ka? pataka ug tabok?
tiara: uh…yep. pero i was on the pedestrian lane. kaya lang green pa ang light, and when i reached the other end the policeman was waiting for me.
tiara: (defensive mode) wasn’t my fault. this girl at the bank pissed me off. gisapot ko.
D: ngano la man ka nadakpan?
tiara: uh… hehe… i told him not now, gisapot ko. then i just walked by him real fast. hihihi.
D: tia when are you ever going to learn to obey the traffic rules?
* the traffic aide was probably baffled that I dared to hold up my hand in front of him and tell him ‘not now, gisapot ko’ rudely. That’s the only excuse I can think of why I didn’t get a ticket, a warning, or something. And as for the last question… well, probably never. nyahaha. Just kidding. I’m trying, really.
