I took gatepass from workplace this morning and went to JPN to collect my identity card, which perhaps ready to be collected 3 weeks ago! Busy…that’s what I told myself=(…after everything settle, on the way back, reach to a junction where I have to cross the road and TADA, a car stop all in sudden in front of me…now, that’s not place for car to stop…and me, you guys have to know that I get angry pretty fast with irresponsible drivers….gave a loud hon, with hope that the drivers know that’s it’s wrong to stop there….but, to my surprise, a lady came out of the car….
Lady: …”maaf ye nak….nenek tak larat nak jalan”
Me: (trying to defend) “kan boleh berhenti depan sikit lagi”
Lady: “maaf ye nak, maaf ye….”
God, i lost word. Seriously… when such polite and soothing voice, plus with her age apologize to me...felt guilty. In second, I imagined if she was my mom, would I do the same as the driver? Maybe yes.
I left without even looking back at her, but now wish if I could go back and say: “takpelah nenek…benda kecik je”
