The title of my entry is not a Japanese word (the least I know but I cannot be too certain) although it may most likely sound like one. In fact, it is a contracted term (Pangasinense linguist, correct me if I'm wrong) for "Ay agi!' which means "Oh brother!/ Oh sister!" This is often used to express utter disbelief, bewilderment, agitation, excitement, and yes, even horror. There is more meaning to this term depending, of course, on how a person would say it.
But there's one unique person I could unhesitatingly identify who he is through his manner of saying "Ayagi!" His has a prolonged emphasis on the last syllable that I could picture him like a child exclaiming Jollibeeeeeee with excitement. Hahaha. He has the style. Nothing compares. And when I heard him again exclaiming "Ayageeeeeeee!" on the other line last August 7, 2008 at 3:45 p.m., my heart leaped with joy. I knew right then it was him. Apparently, his expression was brought about the excitement (not horror) of hearing me say hello again after several years of no [verbal] communication. He must have missed my sweet voice (no joke, it's a gift, hehehe) to take the trouble for an overseas call.
"Adonis? Bakla!" was everything I could say when he said "Ayagi!" No offense meant, it's given. In fact, I am so damn proud to have him in my life. He's a precious friend and I'd rather have a bunch of him than domesticate the real-men-but-bunnies type. You know, playboys. Hahaha. I was really thrilled to hear from him. And funny but thanks to my blogsite because he got my number from one of my entries where I was begging for donations for our local school. He even apologized for that, I mean, making the call not for the donation but to check out on me.
We talked about guys from the past -- his and maybe mine and sometimes we cannot distinguish who's whose. Hahaha. Could you believe it? I need not mention who those are because I think (I'm crossing my fingers) they already have their peaceful (ulk) married lives. We (Adonis and I) could not afford to be homewreckers unless coerced. Just playing.
He got my IM ID. He has to rest, this workaholic gay, so we have to cut the overseas call short. He said he will catch up with me soon and I am looking forward to it. Sometime soon, I know, a message will pop up on my screen, and if message windows could shout, I'd only hear Adonis say "Ayagi!"
I miss him sorely. :(
