accidents

friday was kinda interesting for me. i had an accident and 2 near accidents. here's the story about the accident.

i was on my way home from my facial (yes, very tai tai lifestyle ya? lol!) and as i made my way out of the car park, an mpv suddenly shot out of the car park lot in front of me. it just so happened that at that very moment, my mind was away and next thing i knew i had crashed into the side of the car. there was a quick moment of stillness where the driver of the other car and myself looked at one another. for me, it was a "wtf, here i go again" moment, but for the other driver, which was a lady, she looked kinda bitchy and gave me the "hey, f***er, wtf have you done to me car" look, or at least she gave me that impression.

i moved my car to the side, walked to the car and took a look to assess the damage. there was none. by this time, the lady had also made her way out. i was all ready for her to bitch me big time and to admit error on my part. and in anticipation of this big screwing session from her, i gave her my most  apologetic look and expressed my apologies (very sincerely) when she started drama-mama-ing the same too. "oh, i am so so so sorry..." she started. now, this was a very petite-sized, suave, smooth acting malay-ang mo mix-blood exotic looking lady. "i had not check my view and drove out too fast. oh my oh my, are you ok? is your car ok? tell you what, let me give you my number and i will pay for the damages", she continued. if she's any bigger frame, i would have thought she's a drag queen. yes! in a really positive and very pretty womanly sense. doh! i sounded so contradicting. haha!.

huh? it was my fault... my mind raced. "no, no, no, it's ok. no worries, my car is an old car, no worries." i quickly replied. it was, to me, quite obvious that it was my fault, i thought to myself. and looking at the 3 kids in her mpv, i quickly added, "no. please, please, is your family ok? what's important is that they are fine. i am so so sorry if i had scared them." my response took her by surprise. "tell you what, why not i give you my number and if there are any damages, do call me." i continued. and before i could go on, she said "no, no, it is my fault. really, it was my fault. let me give you my number instead, do go ahead and repair your car and i'll pay for the repairs." we ended up ding-donging this it-is-my-fault-and-not-yours conversation for a while more and finally decided that we should just go our ways, each refusing to obtain each other's number, considering there was absolutely no damage to our respective cars.

kinda interesting right?
