4-24-2011 Friday, around 3:00AM I arrived @ Jackoona Cafe near University of San Carlos (Main) to work on something very important. As I entered the cafe, I was shocked by the sight of a baby lying on the floor. Beside him was a woman (probably on her mid 20's) laughing in front of the webcam talking to some foreign man. I assume she was the child's mother.
kusog kaau ang aircon. Ubos kaayo ang temperature. Then iya gibutang iyang anak sa COLD FLOOR, while she's I-don't-know-maybe-flirting with some white Joe! Panuhuton ang bata! Masakit ang bata...
The child was just beside her feet as she sat comfortably on her monobloc chair. I felt the need to talk to the mother. But I was afraid to make a scene so I just threw tiger looks at her and back to her baby. But she just went on with her laughing while her baby's sleeping on the cold floor in this cold room.
Yes. Irresponsible mothers do exist. Her baby's a Caucasian boy, perhaps a year old. Her other child is sleeping beside her. An hour later the other one woke up and cried, then she yelled to make the child stop "Distorbo kayo ha!"
Around 5:00AM I noticed it was getting colder. I wore spaghetti underneath a three-fourths blouse. I unbuttoned and took off my blouse to "blanket" the baby. He was so tiny, it covered him shoulders-feet. The mother was so busy with her business, she didn't even notice.
Dili man mi ka tingog ani ako'ng usa ka kauban na laki diri kay mura'g isog man ang girl nya tagalog. Hasta ang attendant wala kabadlong. I think naa ni sila'y CCTV diri. I don't know if maka keep ni sila recordings.
