A friend I haven't seen for quite some time ran for councilor in a town in Laguna and lost.
"So you really thought you had a chance of winning?" I asked Fetus point-blank.
"Oh yes. The "vibes" were very encouraging." Apparently, this wasn't the case.
Fetus had no money, no political machinery, and a non-existent platform of government.
I told Johnny Bravo about this and he almost pumped his fist in triumph. Both Johnny Bravo and Fetus used to be the best of friends. "Used to" because currently, both are each other's worst enemy.
"Ron, you really expect someone who looks like a cross between Max Alvarado and a penguin to win? His presence in the barangay council might only cause a stampede...AWAY from him!"
Fetus has equally unflattering comments for Johnny Bravo.
"So how's your ageing-diva friend who has an incurable star-complex?"
"What's his next movie role, as food for the crocodiles, the hit-and-run victim?"
Last time they saw each other, they were close to trading punches. How they came to hate each other is a long story which, unfortunately involves me (wink, wink).
I knew it! You have such a malicious mind. You are mistaken, I assure you.
They'll eventually come around and patch up their differences. Well, maybe not anytime soon.
