haix. i cant believe it happened to me manx. although it lasted for only a few minutes, it was still scary... kaes. lemme relate it frm the start.
see, i went back to sn to help them do mm. then shingmin had to go back to nj coz of some special reasons. yeah. so i left with her. planned to take bus home. so, i walked all the way out of sch with her, down the long stretch of pavement. yeahs. then almost towards the end, my dad called me n said tt my sis's cca was over, n asked if i wanted to wait for free transport instead. yeahs. so i decided to go back all the way to sn. n stupid me went up the stairs to the void deck instead, coz there were pple walkin behind us, n i felt kinda lame walkin out all the way, then back again. right. so, i went the opposite direction by the "void-deck way". (hehs. i think only sn pple wld understand this.)
so, i walked up the stairs. then there was this guy standing at the top of the stairs. initially, i thought i cld juz walk past him. but, he seemed to think tt i stayed in the block of hdb flats there. he suddenly turned to me n asked, "excuse me, do u noe who is catherine?" i din noe, so i told him politely, "erm, im sorry but i dunno who tt is" n our "conversation" unfolded like this:
him: what place is this?
me: ang mo kio
him: i noe its ang mo kio. wad country is this?
me: singapore (at this point, i began to freak out. his expression seemed normal, but the tone he was speakin in was really fierce)
him: singapore right? then y is this place like this? i dun understand, u noe. singapore is like this. i told them my wife n i dun have money, we dun have food to eat! she said she was goin up to the indian woman's house to eat dinner. then i waited for so long, but still no one! do u noe how long i have been standing here?! if not for her, i wld not have waited. i wld have rather gone to hougang.
me: err... (*speechless. i really din noe wad he was talkin abt! my heart was really pounding like mad! kept thinking of ways n means to try to end the "conversation" n leave.)
him: we all fought for the country before. in 1985, we fought for the country... (n then i dunno wad else he was talkin abt alr. kept thinkin of how to cut him off n juz go. i din dare to juz leave like this, coz he looked like he was ready to do anything to me. n there wasnt anyone walkin at tt time! i was constantly looking at the pavement to look for familiar faces, or for anyone who cld help me! even looking for my dad's car on the road! i was really frantic then.)
finally, i cldnt take it anymore. when he stopped for a while, i said, "erm, im really sorry but i dunno wad u r talkin abt, i dun live here. i really dun live here! n im in a rush, to go to somewhere else! can i..." even b4 i cld finish, he started talkin again. n it din seem like he heard me. he juz continued talkin abt his wife, tt woman n their family's lack of money n wad-not.
omg. i almost died there. haix. then when he stopped talkin, i tried to leave again. all the while i kept pacing away frm him. but, still to no avail. sighx. n he kept talkin abt the same old thing! with tt expression! i dunno if he was exasperated or wad, but it was really freaky. esp when i had no one else with me!
then, i felt my phone vibrating. it was my sis calling me. but i din dare to ans, coz he looked like he was very in need of money. hehs. but he had a bunch of keys with him! oh man... anws, i answered her call. luckily. n then he saw tt i was busy. when i heard my sis's voice, the sense of relief was like, sooooooooooooooo great! then, i juz pretended to be very busy, rushing off. but the conversation with my sis ended real fast. n i was soo scared tt he wld follow me, tt i dialed home instinctively! n then i blurted everything out to my mum, who thought i fell again or sth(wad the...). n i walked real fast! omg. it was really horrifying! n i kept turning back to see if the coast behind me was clear!
hahhaa but lucky, i reached sn safely. but really... the fear cld really almost kill someone man! phew~ lucky i survived it... :S
