THERE are two lechonsito girls, sugar and honey. Their mother Cecile has not been home for two years, caring for children in Qatar. Her husband Eduardo stayed in Tacurong, licensing officer 3 for the Tacurong City government. The overseas work was necessary to pay for the tuition of the two college girls. Honey studied in Manila, Sugar in Iloilo.

Both girls had not seen their mother for two years. Sugar had not seen her father for one.

I agree with Patricia Evangelista’s reading of Chiz.

“I am leaving my party because I believe that in this way I can achieve what I am to do and the role I am meant to fulfill with regard to the elections, at this time, at this minute, not as a member of any party, not as a partner to anyone, but only myself, as myself.” -Chiz Escudero

In a follow-up interview with TV Patrol’s Ted Failon, asked on what occasion his party has unfairly dictated his actions and choices, Escudero denied he can be dictated to.
