A call from a magazine editor took me by surprise one Wednesday night. I was told to pack up by clothes and go to Bantayan (the tip of Cebu) the following day. She wanted me to write the cover story of their May issue.
The next thing I knew was meeting my photographer friend Ian Javier and make-up artist and stylist Romero Vergara at the magazine's office. We were fetched by a car that took us a couple of hours tracking to a place called Tabuelan.
