Face to Face with Coco Martin

Our schedule for power interruption this week was from 12 noon to 5 pm. That is equivalent to five hours without internet and work. No internet, no work, no output, no income. So Langging and I have been going to Bobs Cafe to drink cold coffee and avail of free aircon and internet for the duration of the brown out. But today is different, there was no table available near a power outlet at Bob's. So we tried our luck at Bar 21 and luckily found a nice and quiet place to work.

While I was engrossed with my work, Langging interrupted me and asked, "Nang, artista na sa ho?" (Sis, is he an actor?). She was curious because there was someone sitting on a sofa just a few feet from us, and female guests kept sitting down beside him for picture taking. So I looked up and, gosh!, there was Coco Martin, one of the two Tayong Dalawa Teleserye male leads. I didn't expect him to be sooo .... young and handsome. Maybe ten times more good looking than in the screen.



So I prepared my cellphone and stood up with Langging getting ready to insert in the queue of ladies wanting to sit beside him. Well, my cell camera however refused to cooperate. I didn't even know how to adjust it. So we went back to our table disappointed and just stayed content by watching him in front of us. I even forgot that I could just shake his hand. So they went out and we returned to our work. Very nice interruption though. Just where was my digital cam when I needed it? Next time, I'll be prepared. :)

*Coco Martin was with Pres. Noynoy's sisters during that day, and they went to different towns to give away school supplies.
