Yesterday I was doing my best not to be late for work. Fate was smiling at me. Commuting was a breeze. I immediately flagged down an almost empty Megamall FX and did not wait for a Quiapo jeepney just to be sure I will be able to get to work early. Since traffic was smooth we arrived at Tektite with 20 minutes to spare. I was debating whether to walk the distance from Tektite to our office (around 10 minutes walk) or stay in the FX as it wound its way around Megamall and getting off at Medical Plaze, which is nearer our office. I decided to walk because I was afraid that the FX would get caught in traffic somewhere along the route and I did not relish being the last to get off, which is often the case. When I got off the FX I looked at its plate number to see if I will encounter in my walk. Sure enough, when I got to Medical Plaza I saw it stop in front of me while a passenger got off. Waaahhh. I could have saved myself the trouble of walking, on the other hand, it was a much needed exercise. At least I was not late for work.
