SULTAN(s) OF (s)WING


Wings. As in Whisper, with Wings. For extra protection.

The sultan is actually my college fraternity brod Moises Cipriano who also works for an NGO.

Yes, he was the Moi waiting forever at the CLSU main gate for his Ebeng although he's not sure if she'll be coming or not in those mobile phone-less days.

Right again. He was the Moi waiting until midnight to sneak a visit to his then sick Ebeng whose parents hated him so much that smelling his presence is enough to induce a heart attack

Yoh! He was the Moi who sold his Levi's jeans for love and killed cigarettes in his head in those desperate days.

And one starry night in that haunted MASP safe house in Bantug, they lay in the grass and counted the diamonds in the sky. He said: "Alam mo bang noon ay isa kang bituin na para sa akin ay imposibleng abutin?".

They now have 4 kids and happily married. Forever I hope...

PS: Neither of the 2 ladies behind the Sultan is Ebeng. They are in fact sales ladies of a stall in Davao City's Aldevinco Shopping Center who gamely posed for the photo.
