i was walking back home after crashing sociology camp, it was already 12.20am but luckily i managed to catch the last train. suddenly a woman called out to me, she was a philipino maid carrying her bag and asking me directions to get to rivervale. i pointed here here there and she went ???. rivervale was a long walk from here.. doubt she could make her way there on foot.
“why not you take a cab from here to rivervale?” i asked
“me no money.”
“okaaayy… why dont you call your boss to help you pay for the cab when u reach home..?”
“employer.. not home.”
she gave the pitiful i-cant-walk-anymore look so i lent her some money to take a cab back to her employer’s house. we exchanged numbers so that she could pay me back.
when she got there she called my phone and told me she reached her place and sounded grateful. okay.
followed by a thank-you sms
the next day she messaged me at 7.30am
“hi.gud.mrning u wk up ready hw r u.” ……. “yep, okay im fine thx” i replied
“wt r u duing nw r u eat lunch read.” …….
(at this point it really started to feel wierd exchanging smses with a pinoy maid) i replied “yah, i had my lunch already…”
now, she sent me another message.. i dont understand what was she trying to say.
“wt cnd of ur cm r u using m1″
i didnt know how to reply her. maybe i will ask for my money back in a few days.
