Quinquinevere

Suppose to pay for my mum's flight ticket by 10am before the airline cancel my mum's booking from Sin-HK. But i don't have that much $$ and my bro don have the $$ too. But he was the one who suggested to help my mum pay for her flight first by borrowing $$ from his friends. Then my bro called and say his friends can't help. So i was caught up in a dilemma to pay my mum's ticket by today yet have no $$. There is no way i could help financially so i called my bro and suggested that he borrow from his gf friends since they always hang around together. While waiting for my bro's reply, i went to take a shower.

While washing my hair, my phone indicated that i have sms (brought my hp along with me into the bathroom). It was from my bro.

Damien (11:14am) - What time does the travel agent close?

I couldn't reply him by sms cos i can't type while washing my hair so i called. I just pressed the call button without noticing who i was calling. My left hand washing my hair while my right hand was holding the phone. My bro and i speak teochew so the conversation went like this:-

Me: Chap je tiam pua (12.30pm)
Him : Si mik kai chap je tiam pua (What 12.30pm?)
Me: Le to de ko? (Where are you)
Him : Thompson Corner
Me: Thompson Corner?
Him:Si ah (Yes)
Me: *THinking...wat the hell are you doing at thompson corner? Isn't that in Kuching? S'pore got thompson corner meh? Got Upper Thompson Road la. But he was at Boon Lay and why is he at Upper THompson Road now? Nevermind! *Shrug it off* .... Che ni moik liaw? Le gai peng eiu neh? Kak e nang chiok soi la. (How liaw? What about your friends? Brrow from them first la)
Him: E nang ai seng interest. Ching kui gai interest bor. Gou pa sien interest. (THey want to charge interest. Very high interest bor. 5% interest)
Me: Boi che ni. Charge do charge la. Le tou ti u liu bo liu? (Nevermind. If charge then charge la. Do you actually have the $$ or not?)
Him: Bo ah. Wa u sa chap kow nia. (Don have. I only have RM30)
Me:Ooi..Ka meh liaw. Mai seng liaw. (Ooi..Quick liaw. Don't play liaw)
Him:Le toi ho ho lai le ka kok de tiang. (You look carefully who you are calling)

I look at my phone, saw the name...Marcel hp...I hung up the phone immediately. For a moment, i stood in my bathroom shocked and didn't know what to do. I can't believe i wasn't talking to my brother. I actually called Little hammer. And he played along with me speaking to me in teochew. I smiled and started giggling. I called Little hammer back and we both laughed at the whole amusing situation.

Called my bro back after that and got my mum's ticket in time :)
