Different Neh, Different Luck!
More Neh, More Luck?? Ni Neh Lar! Pui! Not every Ah Neh brings me good luck.
After having marvelicious dinner with my Indian friend, Nathan, we decided to go spinning (fishing with those fake fish) at Clifford pier while waiting for Zhiming to return his bike. Managed to get a parking lot along the single yellow line. Free parking from 7pm to 7am.
I fished at clifford pier with Singer Fat James and his friends before. Got one grouper weighing around 1kg, my favorite size and fish. Yummy! Yummy! But this time, there were too many rubbish & rocks at the jetty and hence, my fish baits kept on sangko. After trying a few spins, i lost 3 of my fish baits. It cost me few dollar per piece. Suay! So I changed my plan. Fish for sotong instead.
I was shocked when I returned to my car to get the sotong bait. The back screen of my car was broken, glass scattered all over.
One really black Indian man was at the back of my car, trying to escape with his bicycle. I shouted at him to stop. WTF Are You Doing? Thought this fucker Neh so brave izit? Dare to break into my car and steal? My car was parked along the main road, not a dark carpark or backstreet, plus there's so many cars passing by. Must be Kong Kum! Suay! Who Suay? He said he was trying to avoid a taxi that was driving too near to him. Then he lost his balance and crashed into my back screen. His hand got cut and was bleeding.
How? Who’s fault? Taxi driver or Ah Neh? Taxi driver gone, who’s going to pay?
I called my car dealer friend & mechanic to check out how much I should claim from this Ah Neh. Both of them estimated about $400-$500. Previously, I broke someone else's back screen before and it cost me $500. WTF! It was not really my fault and I had to pay for it. Forget it.
Back to the Ah Neh. He called his other Indian friend down and they requested for discount. He is just a construction worker and the fucking big company doesn’t allow them to draw advanced pay. He can only pay me on the 7th of next month. He kept on request for discount.
Neh! You Xiao Xi Bo? How to give you discount when I don’t even know the exact amount? KNN! Who is going to pay for my transport these few days without my car? Ting Tong! Will you pay me extra if my car mechanic under-quote? Teo Bo! Cannot be soft hearted liao. He's poor but I'm not rich either. So I've came to the final decision. How much the mechanic charge me, I will bill him. If it cost more than $500, I will pay for the balance. That’s it. We left after taking down his contact no, work permit number and photo. Actually cannot see his face cos he's as dark as a charcoal.
Must park my car at the work shop along MacPherson road. Just nice, near my office. But no news from Zhiming yet. It's already half an hour to midnight. Should I wait for him to return the bike so I can ride back home? Or should I take a taxi back home first, then go to work tomorrow?? Sometime I just cannot make decisions. Arrrrr… Don’t think too much, just go along with what came to my mind 1st. Very tired. So I've decided to go home straight with Nathan who have accompanied me the whole night. Zhiming finally replied an hour later. Said he will return the bike tomorrow morning… So am I lucky? Or Unlucky??
