This high-handedness seemed natural enough, for Pablo Cabading, Lydia's father was a member of the Manila Police Depatment. Her father usually took her to school and fetched her after classes, and had been known to threaten to arrest young men who stared at her on the streets or pressed too close against her on jeepneys. The Quitangons understood that she was an only child and that her parents were, therefore, over-zealous in looking after her. And off she would go, wherever she was, to tell her father, though it meant going all the way to Makati, Rizal, where she lived with her parents in a new house on Zapote Street. And whenever it looked as if she might have to stay out late, she would say: "I'll have to tell my father first". Leonardo and his brothers noticed that she almost never spoke of her home life or her childhood she seemed to have no gay early memories to share with her lover, as sweethearts usually crave to do. Lydia was then only 23 and looked like a sweet unspoiled girl, but there was a slight air of mystery about her. They went to the movies and to baketball games and he took her a number of times to his house in Sta. He liked her quiet ways and began to date her steadily. Then, at the University of Santo Tomas, where he went to reach, he met Lydia Cabading, a medical intern.
Leonardo Quitangon, a soft-spoken, mild-mannered, cool-tempered Caviteno, was still fancy-free at 35 when he returned to Manila, after six years abroad. 1 TABLE OF CONTENTS The House at Zapote Street…………………………………….
