A way back from 1879, I
met a special friend while I was playing with my other friends in our backyard.
I saw him sitting on a bench and I think he’s waiting for someone. But he
always likes to spend time only by himself. He doesn't like to socialize with
others but I tried to talk with him. He is my exceptional friend I ever met
although he is shy from us.
One day I planned to go to their house. I asked his
parents about him and they allowed us to go outside and spent the whole day
with me. They want also their son meet many friends and hangout with others so
he will not be shy anymore. We’re having fun even though we spend a short time
only. We played hide and seek. Bought what we want and tease other friends with
him. I very happy when I saw he smiles a lot now not like past days.
He’s a very obedient son to his parents. Since he was
born his father saw his potential in searching or knowing about a thing that he
wants to know. I wondered that he will become a famous person when we grow up.
We studied hard and we finished are education. After that, I was amazed of his
skills and talent. He can do anything he wants. But we didn't see each other
because of family problem between us that brought us to go far places.
I heard news from my other classmates that we will have a
reunion this coming weekend and I am so excited for that because of my job and its
years past since I have gone to other places. I was startled
when I heard that my special friend became a teacher, novelist, leader,
governor, and senator. Also his books that he had written including Los suenos
de rizal, kundangan and others. His very wonderful person. The days come to my
mind when we are just playing like a little cute kids and teasing each other and
now he is a very popular person already. I’m very glad to see him again. I will
treasure all of those activities we have shared. What a great day with Lope K.
Santos. “Father of the Philippine National
Language and Grammar.”
