JR, carrying a plastic bag full of snacks, sees his friends laughing and shaking their heads as he approaches them. They're sat at the top bleacher seat. Mariz is also with them, sitting next to Aljun.
Noel groans. "Gago!" he exclaims, shaking his head.
"THE FUCK?"
"Aljun!" Mariz exclaims smacking Aljun's shoulder, his face already red from laughing too much.
JR climbs up the bleachers and finds a spot one level lower than them.
His friends and Mariz give him acknowledging looks.
"Bai, awa bai," Aljun says showing him a photo from his phone of a guy accidentally getting a small of the foreskin on his penis stuck in the zipper of his jeans.
"BAI, LOOK AT IT, MAN."
JR winces in horror. "Unsa mana?"
"WHAT IS IT?"
Aljun laughs uncomfortably and cringes. Recalling how he came across the image, he says, "Lain kaayo no? Murag nafeel pud nako ang sakit sa akong..." He looks at Mariz for a bit and stops himself, embarrassed.
"SO GROSS. I CAN ACTUALLY FEEL THE PAIN ON MY..."
JR hands the plastic bag to his friends and they start distributing the snacks amongst themselves. He takes out a ten peso coin from his pocket and gives it Aljun. "Wala'y siopao."
"NO SIOPAO TODAY."
Aljun receives the coin and puts it in the front pocket of his school uniform.
"Nganong naa man ka ana nga picture?" JR asks, eyebrows raised.
"WHY DO YOU EVEN HAVE THAT PHOTO?"
"Nigawas ra siya'g kalit sa akong feed gabii sa Facebook. Siguro kay naga-follow ko'g mga meme nga pages."
"IT POPPED UP ON MY FACEBOOK FEED LAST NIGHT. MAYBE BECAUSE I FOLLOW A LOT OF MEME PAGES."
"Dili gyud naga-pambrief nang mga foreigner no?" Noel points out. "Mao nang mangaipit na lang na ilahang mga otin."
"YOU GUYS NOTICE FOREIGNERS DON'T WEAR ANY UNDERWEAR AT ALL?"
"THAT'S WHY STUPID STUFF LIKE THEM GETTING THEIR DICKS STUCK ALWAYS HAPPEN."
"Dili bai. Ginatuyo daw na nila. Nakita nako na sa reddit. Makadako man daw na'g otin nang ingon ana." He waves his hands about, as if doing a lecture of some sort. "Kay murag muhiyos diay daw nang otin pag-sige ka'g suot ug brip."
"NO MAN. I THINK THEY'RE DOING THAT ON PURPOSE. I READ SOMEWHERE ON REDDIT ONCE THAT NOT WEARING ANY UNDERWEAR MAKES YOUR DICK LARGER."
"LIKE CONSTANTLY WEARING UNDERWEAR SHRINKS YOUR DICK."
