Well, Tweety, as soon as “lazybones” over “here” gets her “act” together, you just “might” get a “package” with some “books” and “canton” and “other” “such” “surprises.”
Your “friend,”
“Minggoy”

“Hahaha.” Are “we” sending a “package” for “Vincenzo”? Let “me” “know”.
“P.S.”
Tweety? Certainly not, Vincenzo doesn’t eat like a bird.

Yes, Mabi, padala “tayo” kay Tweety “soon.”
At Ayer, “kantonero” na pala ang tawag “dun.” Hmm.
“Nagmamahal,”
“M”

“Bated” “breath,”
“Tweety”
