In a local family compound here in Liberty Road where I currently take residence at, I occupy a two-room boarding house I share with Eric, a 3^rd Year Nursing student at HTC who is a nephew of a family friend. The house sits adjacent the house occupied by the family of Leah and Liit, the identical twin sisters who always wake me up with their tiny yet earsplitting, screals, I call them --- screams + wails. They are lovely little girls @ age 4 who go out and sport different dresses but with the same hats covering their both curly hairs. They sing together and smile exactly the same way. If not for their difference in size evident from their monikers, I could hardly distinguish who is who….

“Ang kulet, kulet mo!!”

“Aaaah! Hindi naman ako kulet!!”

“Bad ka!!!”

“Waaaaa! Mama o!! Di ba hindi ako bad?!!”

Again, they woke me up with these screals today. I didn’t even know who was saying what. I couldn’t tell who’s accusing who.

I’m beginning to get used to their screals, though. They serve as alarms for me to get up, have breakfast and start on my readings for the day. I even begin to withstand their screals while am hooked up with my readings.

God bless Leah and Liit.
