It's not funny

I scrolled on Facebook. I was hooked by someone's post so I clicked on it. Her post was about pregnancy. She is stating there that she's so lucky to have her first baby though it was not planned.

This was her post in Bisaya (Bisaya is our dialect):

"Kanang nag pa check up ka sa Doctor kay sakit ang imong kalawasan, ginaubo, tas sipon, sabayan pag sakit sa tiyan ug ulo nya mahibal-an nimo buntis diay ka 😩❤️ Lord, I’m not ready yet but I am so thankful🙏🏻. Mao diay mura kog malipong pirme ug init pirmi ang ulo, nya ginagutom pirme, murag tanan nalang pagkaon gusto nako kaunon.😘😘😘

#Blessing#1monthPreggy😇#2021baby"

Translation in English:

"That moment when you go to the Doctor to have a check up because your body hurts, you have a cough, a cold, a stomach ache and a headache, only to find out that you're pregnant 😩❤️ Lord, I'm not ready yet but I am so thankful🙏. Now I understand why I am always dizzy, I easily get irritated, and always hungry like I want all the food I want to eat.😘😘😘

#Blessing#1monthPreggy😇#2021baby"

I knew that girl so I was happy for her. I am about to end reading, and congratulate her but, luckily I tapped see more to read more of what she wrote.

Her Conclusion (Bisaya)

"Ps. Sana all tsismosa Gi COPY PASTE LANG NAKO NI

Mao diay pirme lang ko maglagot, init ug ulo ug murag malipong pirme kay

WALA LANG DIAY KOY KWARTA!!"

Translation in English

"I hope you're all gossipers! This is merely a COPY AND PASTE.

That's why I'm usually angry, heated, and brash, and I always appear perplexed

I JUST DON'T HAVE ANY MONEY!!"

Omg I was pranked! I almost message her and send my congratulations but then it's just for fun. Why didn't I think of that. Haha! I just laughed how I was fooled. But, something came out of my mind. I was thinking,

"What if I repost this one?"

"Would my friends believe?"

"Will my chismosang kapitbahay found this interesting too?"

"What if they will not finish reading it and think that I am pregnant for real?"

I don't know what happened but I just found myself on Facebook, navigating my way to add to story button. Copy, paste and click!

Copied, pasted and posted

Tadaaa! I just repost that girl's post to my Facebook story. I don't but I became a fool and dumb that time. I was just curious what reactions I will be getting. But I'm still nervous too because my relatives might see it and not read it fully. Omg! 😁 There's no turning back!

After a minute, I just received comments and messages regarding about it. Even @OfficialGamboaLikeUscongratulated me after seeing that. Sorry be! Haha!

Actually I divided the first part which is the pregnancy revelation to be in the first story, and put the "it's just a copy, paste" at the second part of the story. So if someone will just view the first one, they will not read that it's just a prank. They must also view the second one.

First part

Second part

And I was right! There are a lot people who congratulated me because they haven't seen the second part. 🤣 I was just laughing while I read the messages but then I immediately informed them that it's not true. I was also surprised because there are also some of neighbors who don't like me but duhh, still sent a congratulations. I didn't mind them. They are just waiting for something to be spread to other gossipers as well. I don't mind, let them think what they think.

Apart from that, my story also received more views compared to my usual ones. Some of my close friends didn't believe because they know me already.

Night came and still, messages and viewers are still popping. Some said, congratulations and some said, I knew this was a joke. I just felt so much fun in it. I also tried to joke around saying that what if it's true? 😁

It was the next day that the story has been deleted since it will just last for 24 hours. I checked on it and it's gone already. I also did not responded to some messages I got. I just went through my way on read.cash, read articles, give comments and publish mine. After that, I went through Facebook again. But after some time, I just realized that what I did was very wrong. I shouldn't joke about pregnancy. No one should take it as funny. How insensitive I am to not think about it.

I realized that pregnancy is one of the hardest part of girls' lives yet a big blessing. I was insensitive for not thinking of those woman who wishes to have a child but can't. I was insensitive for thinking that pregnancy is just a piece of cake. Lastly, I was also insensitive for not being able to think that babies are gifts. I should not make fun of them.

After that, I visited the story which is now in archive. I realized that I fooled a lot of people just for the sake of fun. I am so mean. I was planning to make another story to apologize but then I realized it would create a fire again so I decided not to and never do it again.

It's not funny

When I went home, my sister said something to me which made me laugh and annoyed a bit. She said that one if her friends who's my friend too say something to her.

"Wow! Congratulations, Nik. You are now an auntie".

I cannot complain. This is what I get for being dumb.

I learned my lesson.

Hello lovelies! How have you been? Sorry for this article. I know some of you might don't like what I did but yeah, let me learn my lesson.
