Etic wanted to walk in Central Park but we had no place to park so we decided to proceed to Serendipity where we planned to have dinner. This is the restaurant in the movie of the same name starring John Cusack and Kate Beckinsale. There was a line and we were told that the waiting time was from 45 minutes to an hour and a half. We stayed in line and since other people left, we did not have to wait very long to be seated.Mind you, while we were in the car we were mentioning everybody we can remember from UP Iloilo while we were still there just because we could not figure out who Manang Rhode's BF was then. Anyway, as we were being seated, a familiar figure passed as as he was exiting the restaurant. Pinky recognized him as Eisen Espina, one of the names that cropped out earlier. Pinky said,"Si Eisen Espina," and wanted to talk to him but he was gone. After a while, as we were about to order, he came back and talked to us. He said that one of his children told him that someone had called out his name. His wife was with him and it turned out to be Naty Arandela,who was one year ahead of me at CPU Elementary. He was a practicing physician in Texas and was in NYC to visit their child who is working at ABC (TV Network). Speaking about SERENDIPITY!
