LEONARDO-DE CASTRO, J.
As for San Diego's testimony, it is not unnatural for him to have a detailed recollection of the incident.  "Different persons have different reactions to similar situations.  There is no typical reaction to a sudden occurrence."[31]  It is worthy to note that San Diego was only sixteen years old when he witnessed the stabbing of Adovas.  It was his first time to witness a person being stabbed right before his very eyes.  He testified that three months after that night, the events were still vividly imprinted in his mind.[32]  It is thus not improbable that he could, with certainty, identify Asilan as the man who stabbed Adovas that fateful night.

Zenaida's behavior of leaving her husband unattended after he was shot is not contrary to human experience and would not necessarily imply that she did not see her husband being shot.[62] Not every witness to a crime can be expected to act reasonably and conformably to the expectations of everyone.[63] Different persons have different reactions to similar situations.
