TRUE CONFESSION

QUAGMIRE

By Vict. V. de la Cruz
(Based on the history of P. BUENTIEMPO sent by CAA, Los Pinas, Metro Manila.)

Illustration: Setting is at a bus terminal. Brought there by Bojo, age 32 yrs old, is Pia, age 25 years old, heading to Manila. Pia brought nothing with her but him, except for her long hair ribbon. She wears a simple T-shirt and pants. Bojo, a typical male, with a nice form, is also wearing a simple T-shirt and pants. There is not much else to the terminal. They stand there as if it was a bus shelter and talk.

Caption: "You still think I'll follow you, Pia," he said.

"W-what?"

Subhead: Sometimes. Theater just like life when you do not care ends up as defeated place ....
