Across the Multiverse

(SPOILERS AHEAD: I know not everyone has watched ‘Spider-Man: No Way Home’ because of the recent COVID surge so let this be a warning not to proceed further if you’re still planning to watch it.)

I reserved my ticket for the first day of showing (January 8) of ‘Spider-Man: No Way Home’ when Ayala Cinemas started pre-selling by the last week of December 2021. This was already delayed because foreign movies had to give way to local films because of the Metro Manila Film Festival.

So, I managed to not have COVID-19 since 2020 only to get it on the first week of 2022.

It started as an itchy throat by the end of December but nothing alarming. I chalked it up to having eaten something that irritated my throat. But the sensible part of me knew that I’d have to do something in case it worsens. So even if I was only having an itchy throat (not even painful) which kinda progressed to a dry cough, I already started wearing masks even while at home and kept my distance when I talk to my mom and the kids.
