Judging by the big frown in his face, he probably had an argument with that girl who lives across the street from his house.

This has been happening for three months now. Of course it isn't always like this. Three months ago, things were very different. If three months ago you'd say to him this, he would laugh at you're face before slapping it to kingdom come. He was a very different person three months ago. You could say fate did this or the universe meddled with fate so he'd be pushed in the predicament he's on at this very moment. Pacing angrily to the town's capital giving absolutely no regard to his nearby surrounding. At one point some muscle-bound idiot driving his motorcycle almost glaze him but couldn't care less even if the said muscle-bound idiot shot his mouth off to give him a piece of his mind. Halfway to his destination. He's anger slightly subsided. The hard-pounding on his chest was no more and the grimace he was wearing all the way to the pharmacy next to where his uncle Mike's place is no more noticeable than the scar he had on his face when he was just ten years old. Realizing where he was, he decided to give old uncle Mike a visit. Plus, he was thirsty. Figured it was a win-win for both of them.

"Mano po Tito Mike", he quickly said as he reached the old man's hand. Old Uncle Mike was busy reading the headlines from a week old newspaper an didn't realize the interruption of the unexpected guest until he found his right hand on his forehead. "Ikaw pala ? Kumusta ka na?", Old Mike said out of the shock. "Saan ka ba naglagi hah?", he added. The man said nothing to Old Mike as he went straight to the kitchen and found himself a beer on the fridge.

Old Mike is his Mother's youngest brother of 6. Married on the age of 35. Had 3 children with his wife. Old Mike would say his wife left him because he was too out-going for her. His wife said otherwise. Like he's a bit unstable. He'd leave without any kind of notice and be gone for a week and would show up like nothing happened. Of course Old Mike's wife hope that's all she'll handle. She gave up all hope and one day while Mike was on his 'adventures', she packed one big bag with whatever she could fill up with, took the children and went East. She did left a note for Old Mike. The note said:

Dear Mike
