Presidential sisters nine times nagro-rosary pangontra sa most dreaded month, ang August

ni Ronnie Carrasco III

PRESIDENTIAL sisters Ballsy, Pinky, Viel and Kris—having grown in a spiritual environment with their parents—have found a powerful  ”pangontra” to their most dreaded month of the year:  August.

Ito’y ang balitang pagrorosaryo ng magkakapatid at least nine times a day.

Tulad ng alam ng lahat, the deaths of their dad former Senator Benigno “Ninoy” Aguino II and mom former President Corazon “Cory” Aquino took place sa buwan ng Agosto.

Sa nakaraang SONA ni P-Noy, as his voice cracked ay napaluha lalong-lalo na si Kris sa tila may himig ng pamamaalam ng kanilang kuya—whether mula sa kanyang puwesto o sa mundo. Whichever, ang matalinhagang talumpating ‘yon ng Pangulo sent chills running down his sisters’ spines if only for its morbid undertones.

OA mang isipin that P-Noy’s sisters are saying the rosary nine times as the number of the proverbial lifetimes ng isang pusa, no one can argue with one’s spirituality.

Mahaluan man ng superstitious mumbo-jumbos ang “praying quartet” ng magkakapatid—let’s face it—iba pa ang kapangyarihan ng pagdarasal.

For now, as far as the Presidential sisters are concerned, they can only exclaim, “Oh, ghost!”
