She said she was really getting ready to walk the rest of the way home, which is some distance from where she was.
Queen Charlotte said that without warning, a barangay patrol car stopped by. At the time, she thought she was going to be arrested, being outside her home past curfew hours.
To her surprise, the driver asked her to ride the car so he can drop her off to a gasoline station where he was going after all.
After reaching the gas station, she again started to walk but then, the barangay patrol again returned and stopped beside her. The driver was different at this time.
The driver then asked her where she was going and she answered up to the boundary. “Sakay na po kayo. Wala na po masasakyan eh. Nakita po kase kayo ni Kapitan, naglalakad. Naghatid po siya pagkain eh,” the unidentified barangay patrol driver told her.
“Talaga kuya? Buti di ako pinahuli ni Kap. Nasa labas ako, curfew na,” Queen Charlotte inquired, to which the driver said that he’s not there to arrest her but to bring her home.
The netizen was able to arrive home safely and immediately posted on social media her thanks to Barangay Captain Jojo Gawaran. She also narrated the entire story in her post.
“Hindi ako tinanong Kung botante ako. I was beyond amazed na pinansin ako ni Kap. Lakas ko po pala sa inyo,” Queen Charlotte ended.
