‘Lahat talaga nang-iiwan’: Janine Gutierrez draws ‘hugot’ after driver accidentally leaves her
In a hilarious turn of events, actress Janine Gutierrez got left behind by her own ride after her driver mistakenly traveled without her. The driver apparently reached Mandaluyong from Makati before he was even made aware that his passenger was missing.
Gutierrez made light of the situation by posting the event on Twitter yesterday, Feb. 26.
“BABALA: Lahat talaga nang-iiwan (WARNING: Everyone actually leaves you behind),” Gutierrez joked.
The actress narrated how she got left behind while withdrawing at an ATM. She went to the vehicle to grab her wallet and put her cellphone inside the car. When she returned, the car was gone—the driver thought she got in when she took her wallet.
BABALA: Lahat talaga nang-iiwan. I went to my car to put my phone inside & get my wallet. Closed the door and walked to the atm across the street. Pagbalik ko wala na kotse ko, iniwan na ko. Akala pala ni kuya nakasakay na ko. Umabot na po siyang Mandaluyong galing Makati ano po

In a follow-up tweet, Gutierrez shared with her followers how she got her ride to turn back. Since she left her phone inside the vehicle, the actress approached a stranger to borrow his phone to contact her father, Ramon Christopher.

(I do not have my driver’s number memorized so I texted my father. After getting amused about the situation, he called the driver.)
Gutierrez narrated her father’s interaction with their driver, JR. When Christopher called the driver and asked him about where the actress was, the driver said, “Andito po (right here).”
“Wala diyan si Janine!” her father said.
The driver appeared to be shocked: “Hala wala nga po!!! Nasaan po siya???” (Oh no! She is not here! Where is she?)
Naki-text ako kay manong, hindi ko memorize num ni kuya kaya si Papa tinext ko. After maloka ni papa at natatawa, tinawagan niya si Kuya.
Papa: "Nasaan si Janine?"
Kuya JR: "Andito po."
Papa: "Wala diyan si Janine! 😂😂"
Kuya JR:"Hala wala nga po!!! Nasaan po siya???"THE END
