4,096 Likes in just 10 minutes! Definitely unbelievable but does it surprise me still? Nah, not with my friend Dell.
Almost uwian time na and yet it feels like time is running so slow. I'm done with my tasks for today even my friend and seat mate Avs and now like what most of the people here in 15th floor are doing during these hours, FB! They say the project is lenient naman about employees browsing FB but sometimes I feel guilty. Anyhow, what has started as a weird day with a disturbing encounter with that girl in big copper rimmed spectacles has turned out to be boring as the hours went by.
Dell just posted an after gym picture and friends and people went crazy on his profile. 24 years of age, mestizo, average height and built, the guy is just so lucky. He's one of my online friends to whom I shared interest in photography with. He's a freelance photographer on his leisure hours. Yes, coz he doesn't need to work. Actually, he can spend his lifetime doing nothing and yet still live an extravagant life. He's half Italian, one fourth Spaniard and the rest Filipino, hence the Adonis creation and gift to all ladies in the world. Their family business is in realty here and in the US and of course the very popular source of great income to their empire which is probably one of the finest winery in the world, Tuscany Elixirs. This was once rumored to have Sorcerer's stone effect...immortality back in the 14th Century and now one of the luxurious must haves to the rich and famous.
I think with the rate of Likes he's getting in FB, he'll be one of the biggest names on whatever industry he'll plant his personality on or better yet, his picture. Sometimes I think he doesn't need to travel anymore just to find that elusive subject he was always telling me about, his picture would be enough. But what really strike me when I first met him, is his true passion when it comes to photography. He hasn't formally opened his gallery yet but he shared with me a sneak peek of his latest masterpiece, "13", as simple as that. Thirteen pictures of elements you won't believe to have very deep effects to people who have great passion on the arts particularly photography like me. This may sound corny but I felt with him after looking at those pictures. The pieces are like different plays on light and shadow and surprisingly wind. Yes, I don't know how he did it but the illusion of the wind as invisible as it may seem through the naked eye has somehow materialized on those pictures. It was eerily genius for me as I told him.
"Shay!", always with the exclamation. Dell pinged me on FB.
"FB during work hours?...tsk tsk tsk :-)" he said.
"4,096 likes in 10 minutes...latest Guiness Record?" I joked around.
"Haha, okay u got me, what's up man? Last time we talked you were telling me something about a boy in white?" he said.
"That was just the half of it, he communed to me through my mind." I said
"Whoa! Third eye finally open? I told ya you're different Shay. Remember the aura on one of your pictures?" he asked.
"Yeah, I remember but I don't know Dell, there's something more to it. I haven't told you the rest."
"Wait man, mom's calling. She went to her annual Europe trip... Okay let's catch up later, I'll pick you up tonight 8PM?
"Alright, but where to later?"
"Nothing fancy, jan lang ATC there's this Tarot booth I wanted to check out too, my cousin Meira's bugging me for weeks now to see her craft and I think she had another "attack" as she calls it earlier today she texted me. Don't ask, even I don't know what these "attacks"are. I'll introduce you to her, she's a killer, lol underneath all these eccentricities surrounding her."
"Ah..Mm alright."
"Great! See ya later man."
"Meira?" Could it be that girl..."attack?" Hmm, okay I take back what I said earlier about how boring this day is.
