Unplanned Weekend "Go-Away"

The sun rising in Calubian.

I went on leave from Thursday ‘til Friday two weeks ago. I only told him that I went on leave on Thursday because I want to surprise him by dinner time. I want to spend time with Dub Dub. I planned the whole weekend too. I want to go swimming and then eat out. We like pizza and pineapple juice a lot. We like watching movies too. We haven’t watched a good movie lately. Well, this was s’pose to be my plan. However, his professor invited him to go to Leyte. It’s another big island east of Cebu.

We had a big fight. I don’t and to go and if I don’t go, I won’t let him go with them either.

The beautiful view of the strait from the next hill top.

Finally, I decided that we go. It was for fun anyway and we would also be earning a bit of money. It would help us in our daily expenses as well. The trip was free anyway and we need not to pay a single penny.

So off we go to Leyte. We took the ferry for 4 hours then we had a road trip for 2 hours. When we reached our destination, it was a great place. The small shrine is located on top of a hill overlooking the strait between Biliran Island and north-west of Leyte.
We had fun, even if we only had less time to sleep. Early in the morning, we went back to the city. That was Sunday. The skies in Leyte were dark. It promised rain and unfortunately we were drenched in rain. For two hours, we were soaking wet. I got sick. In fact, I still have my colds and cough. We were also absent the Monday after. We were so tired so we had to stay home together.
