someone once told us that the former occupant of the house where we lived died or committed suicide there who was a male lawyer and once that showed me he was walking in a room while the light was off there and at that time we were playing my brother did the same to mama he saw it in the cabinet with his head cut off.
mayroong nagkwento sa amin dati na ang dating nakatira sa bahay na tinirahan namin ay namatay o nagpakamatay doon na isang abogadong lalaki at isang beses ay nagpakita iyon sa akin naglalakad siya sa isang kwarto habang nakapatay ang ilaw doon at nung panahong iyon ay naglalaro kami ng mga kapatid ko ganoon rin kay mama nakita niya ito sa cabinet na putol ang ulo.

maria, juanillo, ernesto and anita were some of the names given to a few of the children that lived here. they all had really pretty names but there was one child with the oddest name, and no one knew why her name was bituin.
bituin had no idea that the other children in sunnyside thought she was strange. she was always out of focus, always unaware even when things went wrong and she always seemed to have no clue of what was happening about. she was like a broken toy as they say that never ran out of batteries

when i was living with my family feeling, i was happy even though we were incomplete, even though we lived a single life we couldn't buy everything we needed, even though dad had left all of us for a while just to be there for us. that
noong nanirahan na ako sa piling ng aking mga pamilya,masayang masaya ako kahit na hindi kami kompleto,kahit siple lang ang pamumuhay namin hindi man namin mabili lahat ng pangangailangan namin,kahit matagal na kaming iniwan lahat ni papa basta nandyan si mama para saamin sapat na

"death takes the train" a train car is empty. groups of people shuffle in and settle in to seats to the right. people are talking about their trips and their destinations and how tired or hungry they are. then after a pause, the grim reaper walks on to the train and sits alone at the left side of the train car. mel is that who i think it is? mitch i think so. mel what's he doing on this train? tina how do you know it's a he? mel death is always a guy. tina always? mel i think so. tina but he's wearing a dress. mitch or is more of a moo-moo. mel robe... it's a robe. guys can wear robes. tina after a shower. mitch or if they are some kind of judge. tina death is a like a judge. mel true... i see what you mean. tina a justice of the peace? mitch a justice of rest in peace. tina nice one. mitch thanks. tina you're welcome. mitch so what's he doing here? tina he's got a client i guess. mel one of us? tina no, he's probably on his way somewhere. mitch why is death taking the train? mel his winged horse o' death didn't have the guts to go there... get it... because it's a skeleton horse... no guts... tina please don't explain the joke. it's not funny if you have to explain it. mel geez... i'll just let mitch make all the jokes then. tina thank you. mitch you're welcome. tina death taking the train doesn't make any sense. doesn't that take too long? wouldn't death be in more of a hurry? mitch maybe not... modern medicine is keeping people alive longer. maybe he's not in a hurry anymore. mel maybe he's on a tight budget like the rest of us. the bad economy is even affecting life and death. tina i like mitch's theory better. mel of course you do. tina mitch has a point. people aren't dying as quick as they used to or as often. modern medicine can keep people alive for years beyond what normally would kill them. mel so death saves money and takes the train. mitch and he's being very environmentally aware too. trains burn much less energy than planes and cars. death is doing his part to help the earth. mel wouldn't death like pollution? tina not necessarily. maybe he likes the natural order of things. maybe he's doing what he can to help restore the balance that people offset through technological advancements. mitch well said. tina thank you. mitch i wonder where death takes people? mel to the h-e-double hockey sticks place down below. tina what if they're good? mel heaven. mitch wouldn't that be an angel then? tina we're all assuming there is a heaven... mitch i'd like to think there is. mel it's nicer that way... thinking there is someplace good we go if we lived a good life. and that bad people are punished for being bad. tina but who decides what is good and what is bad? mel god. tina what if you don't believe in god? mel that's okay. god still believes in you. tina i'd feel a whole lot better facing death if i knew for sure. mitch just the fact that we see death sitting over there gives me hope that there is something more beyond life. tina wow, who would have thought seeing death would make you feel hopeful? that's some serious optimism you got there, mitch. mitch i wonder if he would talk to us. i'd love to ask him about all this. life after death... good vs. evil... mel he doesn't look like much of a talker. and what if he speaks latin or ewok or something like that? tina ewok? mel i'm just making a point that he might be from somewhere else. tina i'd go with latin over ewok. mitch or maybe he has a universal translator that helps him understand all languages. tina that would make sense. mel no it doesn't... none of this does. doesn't it strike you as weird that we've never seen death before? tina true. i've never seen him before. mitch you don't think that means... mel what happened to mr. optimism? mitch he jumped the train.
