There was a time in my life I was without a mobile phone. I kept telling myself that I can be without a mobile phone. I mean what is the big deal right? Well those days are gone. Ever since I had my mobile phone, now I cannot be without one. The times has change. Now I do not travel anywhere without my mobile and if I did, somekind of crisis were definitely happen. What's more with the lousy public telecommunication service in Malaysia.
Just yesterday - 4/5/06 (Thursday), I took a half a day leave from office to go and get my hair done. I left the office in a hurry and did not realize that I left my mobile on my desk. By the time I realize, it was to late to turn back. I told myself okay nevermind no big deal, will try to make my day without my mobile. Boy Oh Boy!!! Was I so.......... wrong. My arrangement with my hubby is for him to pick me up at the town centre or at the Subang train station at whichever time that will be arranged later. Upon my hairdo which was at 5:30pm I went to a restaurant nearby to grab something as I still had not had my lunch. Morever, it was raining and I could not make way to the train station. When the rain stop I made way to the train station and call my hubby but he was not picking up. I borded the train anyhow and made way to Sentral station. Call him again and he was not picking up. I called my collegue to find out if my hubby called him but to my dissapointment he did not. So I I left message with my collegue and waited for a while at the Sentral station before calling him again but there were still no answer. So I decided to board the train and make way to Subang. I reach Subang almost 10pm and I try calling him again but to with no result. Finally I had no choice but to get a cab back home. The train station near Subang can be a very creepy especially at night. So I was a bit scared to take a cab but I had no other choice left. If I were to wait at the station I do not know how long more I had to wait and whether or not my hubby is going to come. So as time was an essence here, I had to dare myself to grab the first cab and hit home. Believe me I was praying hard by this time seeking GOD to accompany me on my journey home. The cab driver was very wierd. Halfway through he told me that he is going to take a different way as he need to pump petrol. Eventhough I was like a nervous wreck, coolly I told him that it will be alright with me. I just did not want to show him that I was so scared. However, upon reaching the petrol pump he told me that he decided not to pump there and continue his driving. By now I was almost worried to sick but still maintain my cool. He drove into some housing area which was pitch dark and I was praying harder now seeking GOD to protect me. Thank GOD finally I was on some familiar road again heading for home. The moment the cab stop infront of my home I was so relieve the I quickly jump out of the cab and handed him the cash and made my way to unlock my house door. Oh yeah! I did not forget to thank GOD a million times.
Finally my hubby call me at home and I shouted at him for not picking up his phone. He told me that he left his mobile on his desk as he could not take it along with him as he was having a discussion with his big boss. He then explain further that he came out few times to check if there were any messagges that I left for him and asked me why I did not leave message. I told him that I did not see the point of leaving messagges as he was not even picking up his phone. So all in all the day ended very badly with arguments (I was the one who was arguing, my hubby was only listening and trying to explain his situation).
