It's raining, while eating lunch.. and at the carenderia, there's a stranded foreigner beside me, talking with a fellow filipino. The foreigner speaks so strange due to the fact that he got different accent unlike ours of course.
In my head, something tells me to join their conversation, without any good reason at all. So, after I'd finished my meal - I ask the foreigner "excuse me, where you from?"
then the foreigner replied - "I'm from amerika.. at California." Trying my best to act naturally I say, "So, what brings you here?" a long pause from the american and, " mmm. I'm sight seeing!" with a great smile from the stranger's face. He also told me that he wants to visit Mabini's house and the nonstop rain prevents him from doing so, Making him stranded..
Then after that two few sentence I made, I stand up and paid my bill.. Well - I'm not used to those kinds of scenarios. So, I don't know what to do next. My vocabulary seems to hide during that time with the american.. haha.. without even saying good bye or any farewell, I just left them there..
Until I realize that, that moment is the chance for me to practice spoken english. all the things that I wanted to say just came in the moment that i left them.. Oh, what a crap.. I just wasted the chance.
