Brothers Alyosha and Alaric both made it through Ateneo de Manila High School; oh what a relief. For a while there, their mom and I were in tenterhooks, fearing that the last Math exam would consign them to another summer of extra work, a virtual "pass-out" in favor of a DECS high school diploma, or sheer ignominy and a life spent as a counter attendant in Jollibee or Starbucks.

The first two had passed away early, many years back, I was told. Joe Zagala, my bully of a seatmate for four years of high school, had "gone AWOL." Nobody knew where he was; he could’ve taken off for the States a long time ago. But then, as punong-abala Lino Dionisio said, he and Nito Abad in the US had kept track of most of San Beda College’s High School Class of 1960, including those abroad. Zagala was one of several exceptions.
