Free Ride

Sibulan - I AM DRIVING my kids to school this morning. When the car turned right from the subdivision gate, I saw a small girl wearing the same uniform as my youngest daughter. So I asked my youngest second grader son, "Is she from your school?" Yes, she is.

When I reached her I tell her to hop in the car instead. The time a few minutes past 6:30, and to take public utility vehicles to school means a two-ride trip, she would be late if she will walk all the way to the highway, which is almost half a kilometer far. When she and her mother join us in the car, the mother said, "our cabbed motor pool did not come so we decided to walk instead."

She and my children reached the school on time.
