March 09, 2010 when a man named Carlo suddenly came inside my room, approaching me without further introduction of the Acer Laptop he's selling with zero interest.I was hesitant for I have my desktop already with an LCD screen which I have bought 2 years ago. He told me that the down payment will be under his care. We subdivided the total amount prior to the number of months that I am going to pay . The offer was good..it was really enticing. I informed him that some may also be interested in purchasing his product, and so we went out. Five of us showed interest of what is being offered. The initial down payment of 790 pesos has been given by two teachers without thinking of deception or cheating . I, myself had given 410 pesos for it was the only money left from them. I actually had just borrowed. Carlo had promised that he will be back on Thursday at 9: 30, bringing our laptop. Afternoon that day., I have this eerie feeling inside of me.. I want to cancel my order thinking that it would be hard for me to balance my budget for the next few months and so I dialled the number he had left to us, but it was always unattended and out of coverage. That was the time that I my mind wandered, there was something wrong with the man, he might not be telling the truth. I called the other fellow informing them of what I have felt, so as not to judged him we have waited till Thursday believing that he will come back and fulfill his promise to us. No person came. My intuition has been true.
We had accepted the situation easily, as there is no best way to make things easier but to accept it and move on. Those money are his already. We hope that it can be of great help to him. We had come to a conclusion that it was a lesson well paid. Honesty is really such a lonely word. We can never trust other people nowadays.Everyone is so untrue.Although, just to be fair, of course there may be still nice fellow out there .Who knows, tomorrow will be a great day for us.Anyway, money is not the end of everything.
