During 'O' level, I studied from 11 pm till the next morning. At 2+ am, I was very hungry so I decided to go to 7-11 to buy food to fill up my stomach. After buying my food, I stroll my way back as the night was very cooling.
As i was walk along HDB flats, I saw one ah ma about 70+ yrs old pushing a cart walking towards my direction. Her cart is those garang guni use one the shape of 'L' type. I thought, "wah, ah ma is so hardworking, 2+am liao still searching for cardboard". If you ask me, I do not find anything wrong with the ah ma.
For me to go home, I have to cross a green light pedestrian crossing and then roughly a 8 minute walk to reach my block. After 3 or 4 minutes, i reached the green light pedestrian. Then to my horror, I saw the ah ma again. Exactly the same person, everything the same, the clothing, the hairstyle, the cart, everything is the same. And she is walking towards my direction again. my heart started beating very fast but I force myself to carry on crossing the traffic light. All this while, I was looking downward and don't dare to turn back.
After that I run all the way home, I don't why but then I was running around inside the HDB area for more than 10 minutes because I end up at the same place. I decided to run straight and thankfully saw the traffic light again. I stood at the traffic light until 6+am then I return home.
