Tuig 2080

CEBU, Philippines - “Right now, Gal, we have no more friends left in our country, because, imagine, we are away from them for 70 years ahead of time. They’re all dead and the newly born when we left, are already 70 years old if they are still alive.”

“Why did it happened, Rudy?”

“It’s the theory of relativity by Einstein because we are travelling as fast as the speed of light.”

“What if we just try to go back to the Philippines at this time?”

“Okay, it’s just a matter of an hour or two. Well, Rhea, we’ll go back to the Philippines at this time.”

“Yes, sir,” dayong liso sa babaye sa lever control. Kapin sa usa ka oras, didto na sila ibabaw sa Cebu City. “Hey! Rudy, there’s a new city near Talisay City and another just in the vicinity of Talamban.”

“It’s just the SRP before and I think it’s still part of Cebu City.”

“Where shall we land, sir?” Nangutana si Rhea.

“Just in front of the Cebu City Hall, Rhea and make it slowly.”

Hinayhinay nga gipaubos ni Rhea and spaceship duol sa krus ni Magellan. Wa pa maabli si Rudy sa gangway, nag-atang na ang mayor sa Cebu City. “Welcome to Cebu City,” maoy unang misugat sa tulo sa ilang pagpanggawas. “Ako ang mayor sa Cebu City, palihug, kinsa man ning akong mga bisita ug diin man kamo gikan?”

“Taga dinhi ra gihapon mi, Mayor, apan gikan mi sa tuig 2010,” mitubag si Rudy.

“Ha!” Nakurat ang Mayor. “Tuig 2010, 70 anyos na ang milabay?” Unsay nagpaabot sa tulo sa tuig 2010? Atangi ang sumpay. - (BANAT NEWS)
