Early this morning, I accompanied one of my boardmates to the Partas Bus terminal in Gov. Pack Road. She was to take the 8AM trip bound for Bangued, Abra, as she was going home to our hometown Manabo. Had breakfast with her while waiting for the bus to go, and read newspaper.
I left her when the bus was about to embark, then I headed to Session Road. Just when I was in front of PLDT, I saw two of my Korean students walking down the sidewalk. They just came from, perhaps, Naver internet shop - a Korean net shop. I walked faster to catch them up.
I caught up with them in front of BDO, then I discreetly poked one of them! ^^
"Ah! Sir!" ~ one of them exclaimed, while the other one just smiled. I asked where they came from. The one I poked replied, "Home, sir." Thinking about where they just came from, I verified, "Home?" The reply was, "We are looking for someone."
As the covnersation progressed, I learned that they were looking for one of their housemates, a 19-year-old lady, who went out during the night but never returned till that time. Because they were bothered, the two of them went out to seek her in places that are frequented by their fellow Koreans. Then we parted ways in front of Prime Hotel as they said they'll head to Burnham Park.
As I was going down Session, i was thinking about what could have happened to that Korean girl... Then suddenly, things i heard from radio newscasts and articles i've read flashed back into mind.. I hope nothing bad happened to her.
