We formed alliance called D'Originals during our
3rd year in high school. These are close friends
consisting of Carlito Manalang, Ruben Sarmiento,
Danny Recio,Rolly Meneses, Rey Faunlagui and Me.

Lito as we fondly called him was very close to
me. I hang around with him on weekend (when I
am not caddying at the golf course) and read
newspaper then sit in front of the house by the
rail fence and enjoyed watching pretty girls walk
by. We took turn on Saturday night at the movie
to splurge P2 pesos in treating ourselves with
arroz caldo, turon, pancit, okoy, halo halo and
specialty chicharon from Mang Estoy joint. We
never try alcohol nor tobacco. We always have
clean fun. He was with the group during my last
visit at Sangley Point Naval base before I left
for the States. I promised him a slide rule
since he need it for his mechanical engineering
course. I met him for the second and last time
on September 1972. We hang around together
and cruise around on his motor scooter. We
truly had fun that time. I told him remember
when you used to hitch me at the back of your
green bicycle? I have so many fond and happy
memories with Lito. I shall never forget him.
