On February 16, 2005, bestfriends Lunatic Beauty and Complicated Dude finally bumped into each other after getting some time off of each other. Though no verbal confrontation had resulted from the case being investigated had ensued, it was silently agreed by the accused and respondent that they need not see each other and will not say anything about the 'snobbing' incident to their friends.
This has to be transmitted that the accused had received a rather awkward SMS message from his bestfriend, the respondent, last January 28, 2005. The message established by the accused and was not contested by Lunatic Beauty is :
ISNABERA! - to which the accused denied categorically
Further investigation revealed that on the day the crime was perpetuated, both parties were in the same area of proximity. Complicated Dude is looking for a new timepiece to replace his lost Swatch, and with a female officemate in tow, had searched the entire department store looking for one that would look fab but fits within his tight budget. Dude and company had found a rather elegant Timex piece that was on a 30% - sale. Dude was ecstatic of the purchase that he decided to treat his officemate to dinner and headed towards KFC.
Lunatic Beauty, meanwhile, was with his two boylets at the mall about to watch Elektra starring Jennifer Garner. The three were just outside the 2nd floor department store entrance when Beauty decided to admire his reflection in the mirror of the department store - which is now partially dimmed because half the lights inside were turned off because of nearing closing time. At that same moment while Beauty was quite immersed in how 'beautiful' he is, suddenly catches one familiar face - Complicated Dude.
Being the egotistic that he is, Beauty waited for Dude to say hi and hello. When they were about two meters apart, Dude just gave him a fleeting glance and totally ignored his presence. Shocked at his bestfriend's unexpected behavior - he did not confronted him on the spot. He hope that he was just mistaken, because Dude might not have recognized him. When Dude is making his way to the escalator going to 3rd floor, he did a backward glance towards Beauty's direction - but still did not give Beauty any sign of recognition. Beauty is now convinced that Dude did not want to see him. When Beauty was sure that Dude is already at the 3rd floor, he produced his cellphone and typed I... S... N...A...B
The investigation established that 10 to 30 seconds after reading Beauty's text message, Dude replied with
"Pnta k KFC, now na!" to which he wasn't able to get a response. He tried calling Beauty but failed. As Dude expected, Beauty had turned his unit off. After finishing their dinner, he once again received a rather accusing text message from Beauty:
"Ito n nga ang knattkutan ko, n drting ang arw lalagpsan n lng ako ng paningin mo"
