Monday… Work… It’s the start of
the work week to welcome another bulk of transactions, and another day to
entertain this one “kulit” (stubborn) client. Weeks
before, this client of mine kept on proposing to introduce to me her nephew. In
our dialect, we call it, “pakilala.” She kept on asking me if I have a
boyfriend every time she transacts at my counter. And she said, there is this nephew of hers
she would like me to get introduced to.
I know her motives, “basi pa lang
may potensyal nga maging close kag magkadevelopan” (maybe there is a
potential between us to get close and be more than friends). And so, I was being polite to her but I
wasn’t serious in taking her proposal.
