Brown Money
DISCLAMER: Please read with a mature mind.
Nanay and I discussed her planned shock wave (laser operation to remove her gall stones) and we arrived to the topic of the cost of this expensive procedure. Nanay said, “Kung tumatae lang ba ako ng pera, eh di kahit linggo-linggo ako magpa-opera.”
“Nanay ko,” I answered, “tumatae ng pera? Masakit ‘yun!”
“Hindi!” she replied, “kung ten thousand ng ten thousand kada tae (Php 10,000) eh di ok na.”
“Pero, masakit yun,” I replied, “papel lalabas sa pwet n’yo?”
“Eh kung nakabalot yung pera sa loob ng tae, ‘di mo na mararamdaman ‘yun,” Nanay answered.
