David is a RYE School english student currently at level 1.

David lives with his grandparents, two aunties and two uncles. His Mother and Father live in Sibuyan, another island as they have a small cantine there which they run. His parents return to visit David 3 or 4 times a year.

His parents decided to go elsewhere to run a business as there is no money for such an enterprise in Cawayan. They hope that David will be able to finish his studies so that he can be educated enough to get a good job.
