Home Sweet Home
By JEROME P. YANSON |
|
For couple Boy and Flor,
twenty-four hours seem too short to wrap up their day. They
go to sleep at midnight and wake up at 4 o’clock in the
morning. “We get up early so that the costumers could eat
their breakfast on time,” Boy, who’s the chief cook and
cashier in their small eatery business, says in his native
Masbateño dialect. |

Upon
waking up on a Saturday morning, 12-year-old Sarah readies
herself to play with other children in the neighborhood.
After a couple of hours, she goes home, sits on the sofa and

A daily
sight at the Ninoy Aquino International Airport is an OFW

Wednesday nights. |

From Dusk Till Down
By BRENALYN PEJI |
|
They
come out at night. No, I’m not talking here about vampires
although I might as well be. With their odd working hours,
the equally unusual time for rest and recreation, the
zombie-like appearance some of them carry as they come home

version of nocturnal creatures. |

the kids from school. |
