Solidarity (or rather, SABO...)
Since I made a fool of myself, I should pull someone else down the longkang too. =)
You know, in Taiwan, Kel was the one who always had money exchanging in his hands. I was the safe deposit. So there was once when we went to have breakfast. After stuffing ourselves, I expected him to walk to the counter to pay for our consumption. However, he just innocently (oh man, I'm using "innocent" on him!) walked in the other direction. I stared on in amazement, until the lady shouted after him. "Ni3 hai2 mei2 fu4 zhang4!!!" (You haven't paid up!!) Hahaha! It was so embarassing!! So he sheepishly fished out his wallet and gave her the due amount.
But that was not all! At Ximending, when we went shopping, we spotted a radiant red sports car parked in front of a shop, on the pedestrianized pavement. The first thought that came to our minds was that it was an advertisement... you know those promotions, contest, or launch of new car models? So Kel nonchantly went to open the passenger door and peered inside, going “Wow… very nice” and all. But what happened right after made my jaw drop and had me almost rolling on the floor laughing my heart out!
There was this guy who had this look of disbelief all written over his face when he approached the car. He got into the driver's seat with this sense of ownership… while a lady came over to the passenger seat. Guess what was happening?!! Kel was peering into someone else's car without knowing!!! Hahahaha! And the sporty red car sped off. Away from this curious maniac! It totally amused me and gave me an excellent tummy workout! *grin*
Booboos make the world a happier place.
