Jeepney Fare

It pisses me everytime I ride a jeepney and seated near the driver where you have to hand him all the "pletes" from commuters who can't even say a simple "thank you" or "salamat" and there are also those who don't know how to say "please"... Grrr... I don't have a choice, do I? hahay.

Anyway, there was one incident that made my head lice flew. I am never mean to anybody but this girl irritated me super that I almost wanted to kick her off the jeepney window.

I went out sometime ago and rode a jeep going downtown. There was only one passenger when I hopped in - a girl around my age. The build of that jeepney was long in width and can accommodate 30 passengers so just imagine how far you have to move your butt forward to give your fare to the driver. From the thrreshold of that vehicle, that girl was sitting before me. I took my purse and got coins. I showed it to her so she'd realized I'm gonna pay my fare and that I'll get hers too. I even played w/ the coins for 5mins but all I got was "deadma" so I was thinking she already paids hers. I glided toward the driver's seat and handed him my fare and went back to her side. Then I heard, "plete palihug!" she said. Bil*t! After all those waiting... I'm gonna drag my butt forward again? Bagag lepz!!! "Di ko!" I replied

Was I mean? I didn't see her reaction but my reply was good enough to let her know I was pissed. I watched her moved and gave the fare herself. Gaba! Deep inside I was laughing but I was burning in furty outside! What was she thinking? That I'm a gentlman?! Sorry gurlash but you got me wrong... :p
