Funny things always happen whenever we go out. I was happily late for my date (well, ppl always think that two person, a guy and a girl is out, it means a date. So! majority wins! Ain't going to argue on that.)
Standing along the road, no cab in sight. Then the opp lane, stood an orange MPV. The driver looked at me, I looked back at him, and our eyes met. He make a turn and stopped right in front of me. The MPV is taller than the usual cabs, I started a casual conversation with the driver, Mr Kenny, and gotten his number, in case of we need a 7 seater cab to the airport whenever our family goes on tour.
Upon reaching Suntec, I happily searched for my money.....then to my horror I remembered, that I transfered all my stuff from my previous bag but forgot my cash and card, into the tote bag I brought out!
That was the worst moment, I laughed and explained to the driver about my situation. He didn't blame me nor force me to pay up, but just printed the receipt, and I offered to write down my particulars for him, and told him I will pay him when I return home and he agreed. It was so smooth sailing, he dun even bothered to check if my ic no. was real.
Then Mr Kenny called me, saying that he is around the area where I alighted. I suggested to him that maybe he can send me home and I could return him the to and fro trip altogether. And he agreed!
So along the journey we chatted again and I apologised profusely for my absent mindedness. Upon reaching my home, the whole journey including the return trip, came up to about 50 bucks. I gave him a 55 bucks to make up for the trouble I have caused. Really felt so guilty for creating such a trouble...and always, surreal funny things always happen when I am out with you. LOL!!!
