MINALIN, Pampanga-"You always rode a train. Why did you ride a bus?" 17-year-old Gladys Cunanan said in a voice filled with sorrow.

The reproach was meant for her mother, Adelina Lagunilla-Cunanan, who died Sunday when a Palestinian suicide bomber turned a packed bus into a fireball in northern Israel.

It was all that Gladys could say after a relative working in Tel Aviv broke the news to her by phone yesterday.

Adelina's brother Pablo Lagunilla Jr. recounted her brush with death last year. She took a bus but decided to disembark at the last minute, suddenly mindful of the bus bombings in Tel Aviv.

That same bus later exploded. Since then, Lagunilla said, his sister had always taken a train to get to the house where she cared for an old couple.
