It's Really Over?
... jeepny and all of a sudden, whose head pops up from behind the front seat?! Miko! All the composure I had gained on our drive to the airport was lost as soon and he started yelling, "Ate Lemissa! Ate Lemissa!"
We said goodbye to him again and then went to clear "security" at the airport. We waited for about a half hour until our flight was ready to board to Manila.
