In the photo, it read that Cheska was somehow embarrassed and was panicking at the same time.
“She came from our house in T.Padilla and was on her way to Mabolo, so pag plete niyang 100 pag sukli ni kuya niya balig duha ang gi kuha,” said Nikki with a laugh.
The driver remembered Cheska and took the liberty to deduct her previous fare this time.
“Gi hinay niya og sulti nga gi kwaan daw niyag apil pag last kay na mukong daw ko, na uwaw gyud ko ay,” said Cheska.
