Well anyway, its like this. I finished my work on friday and wanted to go home on time(5.30 p.m.). Unfortunately I could not contact HER (the lady I fetch home) and therefore was stuck in office calling her office phone every 5 minutes. Finally after 20 minutes I managed to get her.
Lady: Oh, don't tell me you are leaving now! I have so much work to do and some of it is urgent.
Me : Uh... yea I have finished my work n I actually wanted to go back some time ago but I cant reach you.
Lady : Oh, my office line isnt working properly. I'll call you back as soon I finish this urgent matter ok?
Me : uh ok....
(Flashback to last night- thursday)
Lady : Are you staying back until 9 tomorrow? (Friday)
Me : Well maybe...not sure
Lady: I hope you do, I have a lot of work to rush
Me : uh ok, we'll see
(Ok, back to that present moment)
At 6.40, still no call from her, i tried calling her to tell her I would be going out for dinner since I'm waiting for her but no one picked up the phone. At that time it suddenly started raining very heavily. Darn...looks like I cant even go back.
6.45 the phone rings
Lady : Did you try to call me just now?
Me: yes..
Lady : Oh sorry about that, the phone is still not working properly. Do you want to go back now?
Me: Uh, its raining heavily now, my car is parked quite far away.
Lady : Oh I didnt realise it was raining. Luckily we didnt go back earlier !
Me: Har? If we had gone back just now(1 hour ago) we wouuld have escpaed the rain and jam.
Lady : oh...hehe.... well so what time do you want to go back?
Me: Well since all of us are stuck in office, probably we will just stay on till the rain stops. How can I contact you when I want to go back, perhaps you can give me the cellphone number of your colleague?
Lady : oh, cant la, they are all leaving soon already.
Me: Uh ok.... call me back in 30 minutes then.
As luck would have it, the rain stopped about 10 minutes later, and I could not reach HER when I called her office. Fine... I then went for dinner with my colleagues. Oh well since it was already so late, I might as well just stay back until 9 pm and catch up on some tasks, and claim the allowance that comes with staying back for 3 hours.
8.00 p.m. the phone rings
Lady: So when do you want to go back?
Me: I think I'll stay till 9 after all.
Lady: AWWWW... Couldn't you come earlier? I'm SOO BOREDD and I have finsished my work.
Me (...............you said yesterday that you wanted me to stay till 9, and I was the one being bored in office with nothing to do WAITING for YOU)
Uh.. i'll try to get to your place as fast as I can after I leave office.
9.15 pm in the car
Lady: Ah, you are finally here. Sigh, its going to be a boring weekend, i brought so much work home.
Me: Eh, I thought you said you were bored just now.
Lady: Oh, theres still a lot of work, but I didnt feel like doing it, so boring la..
Me: ...................(bangs head on car window)
