It was not really a surprise that he can read a book in English (he learned reading from his previous "assignment" as a newspaper seller) but it's nothing than being able to complete the book without finishing his own day's collection of recyclable trash of empty water and soda bottles. As soon as finding out that the crumpled and torn pages are still complete, he sat under a tree and tried to read them one by one. One morning at the corner of De Los Santos and Makasarili Street, Taong Grasa discovered an old book from the trash can. Some people say that he was the twin brother while others have more comfort in believing that he was just the doppelganger of Buwaya. Taong Grasa was a homeless man who happens to look exactly like Joaquin Fajardo.
