Bad trip. Two close fer comfort.

“what the hell! It’s freakin hot!”
‘tis comin from a helper who accompanied me I the front seat.
I probly shon’t be teachin ‘em English.
Hehe.
Not curse words at anyways.
As usual, my blasted dino car acted up again.
Bad civic!
No aircon.
Sunday is work day fer me.
Usually spend half the day at the shop.
Still, tat’s work. Lazy ass.
Haha.
Had to drop by torres fer a quick delivery.
Jun, my helper din show up.
Dang! And I had a hangover too.


The city hasn’t completely used the new traffic system yet.
Actually when they first ran it… spell chaos.
Even heard mayor got pissed.
So they decided to skip some blocks,
And shut ‘em off.
Magallanes corner Quirino was one of those shut off.
Halfway through tat crossing,
I noticed the red light above me.
“doesn’t tat mean stop, not? (my nickname)”,
Mickey exclaimed.
I haulted.
Already occupied the adjacent lane when tat happened.
Gulp.
My first instinct was to do a reverse real quick.
And I did.
Almost hit a cab behind me.
There he was in front of me.
The green nightmare of all motorists,
Traffic cop.
“Go straight ahead, then pull over the curve”
Im in deep shit.


“chief, I din realize they turned tat thing on”,
I hurriedly explained, as I rolled my window down.
-“tsk tsk”
-“pangatlong araw na po ngayon sir”
While reaching fer this book of ticket violations.
-“license and registration please”
I was sweatin like a pig.
The humidity din help too.
“it’s my first time violation sir”
“swear to god”
Hittin my forehead wit my palm.
So stupid, I thought.
Constantly shakin my head back and forth.
And he bought it.
He actually let me off the hook.
Sigh.
Couldn’t stop trembling.
Things like ‘tis don’t happen to people like me.
I’m a freakin careful driver.
Haha.
Such a sissy.
My passenger was laughin the entire trip back.
Tsk.
You’re so gonna get fired.
Heh.


‘Tat incident got me real paranoid.
It has been a week since tat stupidity.
Same block,
Hmmm. Ok green means go.
It was night then.
A cop pointed to the curve again.
JesusMaryAndJosesph!
What did I do now!?
-“defective headlight sir”



Geez


-“oie! It’s no longer your first time”,
‘wit a grin on his face.
Almost insulting.



Good God!
You thought right.
It’s the same cop!
Talk about bad luck.
‘tis is gettin really ridiculous.
“fine. Gimme the ticket”




Tsk tsk.

Badtrip.
