CHAPTER 11
UNCLE D-NORT


Narrator: Back inside my house, Koji and I were talking during the Toyota halftime show in ESPN. A minute later, the doorbell rang.

Jay: I’ll get that!

Narrator: As I reached the front door, my good ol’ uncle D-Nort was standing.

Jay: Yo…

D-Nort: (shakes his head sadly) I… I can’t believe Lakers are playing so badly right now.

Jay: I know… (as I opened screen door)

D-Nort: (entering house) Tss… this is embarrassing. How many points are the Lakers down by?

Jay: A lot… by 18.

D-Nort: Eh what’s the score?

Jay: 64 – 46.

D-Nort: Haa?? 64 to 46? My gosh…

Jay: Too many given up 3’s, that’s why.

D-Nort: That can’t be. Oh gosh… here we go again.

Narrator: As we were heading to the family room…

Koji: Tito Nort! (as he waves at Uncle D-Nort approaching him)

D-Nort: O, musta kana dyan? (as he and Koji laugh)

Koji: Okay lang.

D-Nort: Ng paso kaba?

Koji: Opo.

D-Nort: Saan?

Koji: Sa Cypress po.

D-Nort: Ah talaga? Dun ng pasok dati yun Ate En En mo.

Koji: Talaga?

D-Nort: Yep. Ng graduate siya last two years.

Koji: Anong major niya?

D-Nort: Nursing.

Koji: Cool.

Jay: Do ya guys want beer? Coors? Budlite?

Koji: I want Miller Lite.

Jay: Okie. One Coors and one Miller Lite coming up. (as I walk away from family room)
