Warning: Another supposed of those supposed-funny stories of mine
This is a story of a hell of an adventure. So lets start with the main casts. Well there is Me, My GF and her Gay friend in the picture. Lets call her friend as JR short for junior. I can’t remember the exact date but it was around April few months after my girlfriend finally made our relationship official.
She sent me message that her friend JR invited her to be one of the judges in a pageant. This will be held in their place. She asked if I could accompany her there because she is not familiar where it will be held (so did I).
So well, I said, “Yes, no problem.”
I went to fetch her. I was asking what kind of contest she will be judging.
She whispered, “It’s a gay contest”
I said, “What!? And you dragged me into this?” Its my first time to see gay pageant. Oh well, for the experience what can I do I can’t leave my girlfriend alone and be an assh***. Hehe She introduced me to her friend. He said, “Hi so you are the famous BF of my friend here.” with that comment I turned to my girl and she just smiled. I asked myself, “Did they talked about me? Oh well, what can you expect, girls.”
JR told us not to be shocked. I suddenly have this funny feeling that we are in for something different. He asked us to ride a habal-habal. Well, I am used to the transport because during my college years it was the only means of transport we have that time. For those who are not familiar with the vehicle, its just a single motor vehicle that could carry 3 loads of passenger. It has rather big tires compared to the city motors. So we rode it. Again JR asked us not to worry because the driver of the vehicle is very much experienced. Now, I wander. Why would he kept on reminding us that?
And so we begun the journey. In the beginning of the road it was fine but wait until we reached the middle, it was bumpy. Well I can say I am still used to it. My girlfriend isn’t so I held her tight. Whew! Somethings telling me that it was an advantage. I’m just kidding. Anyway moving on with the story. It was bumpy alright but the real nerve wrecking experience just actually begun when we found ourselves at the foot of a mini-mountain.
My girlfriend: Are we going to climb that one?
I: Maybe we’ll just go around it somewhere..
Driver: Nope, we have to climb that one and get ready now, it will be one tough ride.
No kidding, we actually rode like 3 or 4 mini-mountains. It was like roller coaster ride. Indeed it was scary yet fun. I can still feel imagine the feeling of your guts left in the air as your body go with the gravity pull. Damn! Opps..
The ride was really something.
When we arrive in the little baranggay. I noticed that some of the houses were not lighted. I guessed that there was no current when we arrived. We were still riding the vehicle when I finally asked the driver where the hell is JR’s house. He said we are near it already. I thing we are lost. My imagination was filled with cannibals just about to stop the motor and eat us alive NOOOOOOOOOO! Well I was overreacting. Within five minutes after he said that we are near, we saw JR waving. He said, “how was the ride? Are you both OK? I apologize for the inconvenience. Let’s go inside.”
I said to my girlfriend, “Finally, our foot’s on the ground. We are safe!”
Girlfriend: “Were you nervous?”
I: “No, not at all.” (well just a little actually)
Of course, she didnt believe me. Hehe. I asked her back, “Were you?” She said, “No.” I said, “Liar. You held onto me real tight you know.” She just laughed. It was cute.
So we went and to my surprise. There are gays inside the house. I was about to go out when my girl stopped me and said, “Relax, I am here.” Cool GF eh? Hehe.. I said to her, “Never leave me here or else!” These gays were actually looking at me making me feel really uncomfortable. I asked her, “Why are there so many gays here” She answered, “They will be transforming here.” I said, “What?” She replied, “They will be changing into ladies later here.” Well, why here?!
So I never bothered to ask that question.
It was around 8:00 PM already and these “ladies” were actually putting on their make ups and all without any shame that I was there. Well, who am I to them anyway? So they proceeded. My GF told me that this is their lifestyle. They would organize a gay pageant and all that are interested to join may participate. It’s all for fun. I think its weird though. Anyway, if that makes them happy, well go on. I suddenly asked where the hell is JR. He left us there.
I was shocked when I realized that the lady approaching us now is no other than JR himself. He is really like a lady. He dressed and act like one with all the make up. He was transformed. What in the world happened!?
Well so much for that. The pageant according to this other gay who was in the house will now begin shortly. So these gays hurried. My GF and I went ahead to the place where the contest will take place. We walked. JR said, that the place is near. Well, it ran five minutes walk! Now, my girlfriend was shocked.
GF: Where is the stage? The tables and the chairs?
I: Must be somewhere. Are we in the right place? I asked. We never knew until JR arrived and said that we have not mistaken. This is the place of the contest.
GF and I: Whatttttttt?
LOL
I was suppressing my big laugh when we noticed that the stage is just an improvised plywood connected to this truck. And yeah, heaven’s forbid, the sound system is like ages ago before I was born. This is real mess. I made a look at my GF and she was also suppressing that big laugh. This is going to be fun.
We were seated to the table. The organizers pulled the table and 4 seats for the judges and 1 for me. They pulled it somewhere from the little hut not far from the point we were standing. Well, so the contest begun. All the contestants were making their funny spiels in front of their audience. There were kind and derogating compliments from the audience. Laughter or mockery from every corners is very audible in my place. I held my GF’s hand. It was warm. Well this is my first time watching gay pageant.
As I was silently sitting beside my girl. I just feel that the wind was extra cooler. I said to her that I think its gonna rain any time soon. She looked up and said, “Oh, I hope not.” Well, just as she was about to write the scores for the candidates in her tally sheets, the lights went out! I mean the baranggay had a blackout. So the organizers prepared contigency. They lighted candles. Sweet! If it was a dinner out it must have been romantic but it was not.
After the candidates made their turns, the rain started to pour. We scattered and panic where to go for its an open space. The contest was held in a basketball court. So we went into this meeting hall few meters away. The “ladies” were screaming and laughing at the same time. They were soooo noisy. The organizers apologized for this. Saying that the rain and the blackout were not anticipated. Of course they did not. Instead of being pissed for the mess that we were in, I just smiled because this is a funny tragic.
The organizers decided to pursue with the contest. They held it there in that small meeting hall. While there is no lights, sounds, chairs and tables, and while rain pours its might hard enough to hear each other’s voice. It was really funny.
They finished the contest there. Thank God its over. The lights are up and the rain is just drizzling now. I was wondering how we were supposed to go home with wet road, with all those mini mountains. Whew.. another nerve wrecking experience again this time.
Luckily, we were able to go home safe. Thanks God. It was an anecdote. Something to treasure for the laugh I had that night. It was funnily weird though. Anyway…this is my piece of crap. Hope you enjoyed.
Well I ain’t that great writer you know so please forgive my style for the moment. Ciao!
