Like I said, somebody died in this car I’m driving, but I’m certainly not going to tell that to my future passengers, especially if it’s someone I might want to hang out with and drive around, maybe to Tagaytay, because I know it will freak them out. Heck, I’ll admit it, owning this Ford Escape freaks me out—and it’s only been four days—so much so that while I love this car, I’m ready to convince my dad to sell it and maybe find something else. I’m sure we can clear a profit of at least a hundred thousand pesos on the deal if we move fast. My dad and I can split that up and maybe I can buy an iPhone 4S with my share. It won’t be a car though it’ll look good too. But first I have to get some papers from the widow. I didn’t realize all the IDs and powers of attorney—which apparently she’d managed to get the professor to execute for this and that emergency, in happier days—that you need to transfer a certificate of registration. I’m going back to the wake tomorrow for those odd details, and to listen to all those speeches long-faced people make about what a nice man and brilliant colleague the dear departed was, but also to ask a few more questions of Lalaine Sanvictores. I hate these tired clichés, but there’s more to this woman—let’s just say there’s more to woman—than meets the eye.
