disclaimersince de most dramatic experience happened
i shall quote directly from her
and editting in green
Today, was the end of A levels and I got into this whole huge drama thing at Bugis Street.
LONG LONG LONG STORY.
Involving some thief who stole my phone and how we got it back and how traumatising the entire thing was.
(
It's like a scene outta some drama serial. )
Well, So we were at bugis street and I kinda wanted to get another earhole.
And I was messaging before that and I left my file and phone on the display counter and turned back for awhile to talk to Sihui.
(a conversation that lasted 2 secs)When I turned back again, my handphone was gone.
Then I started panicking and searching my bag.
And told them to call my hp cuz I was dead sure someone took it.
Before that there was 2 women in the shop.
One went out and I thought she was the one who took my phone.
I went up to her and asked whether she saw the phone.
And she said no and opened her bag.
And she also asked me for the phone's model and she said she saw the woman beside her holding the phone I described.
The other woman was leaving the shop and I approached her and asked her whether she saw my phone.
She was kinda aggressive and insisted that she didn't take it and opened her bag for me.
(kinda is an understatement. she was spewing vulgarities like no ones business and de tattoo uncle retaliated)Then she said she got stomach ache and went to sit down on the chair outside the shop.
Then I checked her bag another time and there was really nothing.
(basket! cos its not even in her darn bag bitch of a ah lian)So I went back to tell everyone that there wasn't anything and asked the woman whether she was sure she saw her take it and she said yes.
(cos she ran into de toilet)Then when I turned back she was gone.
Luckily, her bf was still in the shop.
(stranded with de shopowners questioning him)The lady who works in the shop also went after her, together with Wenna.
(de lady is also a ah lian and she changed my perception of them cos she was super nice and uber helpful plus fantabulously fierce knocking damn hard on de door aking de thief to come out)She was in the toilet and they told her to give back the handphone.
(which she gladly shouted I DIN STEAL! in her best language ever muster-able)
Before that, when they called my phone, it was still ringing and all.
(and must be vibrating superbly vigourously on her)But when she got to the toilet, it suddenly became unavailable.
(and we highly suspect she flushed it away cos no sign of it in de bin)When she came out, she still kept insisting that she didn't take my phone.
(still in a adamant tone exclaiming loudly)A lot of people also gathered around the place to see wth was going on.
(there was a huge crowd gathered around it was so embarassing)Then the guy working at the tattoo parlour said that they're gonna call the police and all
(he even told me de girl was on drugs and tell de police dat and they would arrive in minuteswhich they really didhe stood there throughout and helped us detain de girlhe was super fierce and cursing in hokkien which wenna translatedde girl was kinda scared of himhe said he had seen far too many like herin drugs stealingwah sounds damn heroicmy sis was like saying he soundsike he used to be a gangsta personnel and allbut has turned over a new leaf sorta guy)He also used his leg to tap her boots cuz he said he saw something bulging out.
(de uncle super observant)Being the frantic and mad person that I was.
I DASHED AND GRABBED HER DAMNED BOOTS.
(she actually fell to de ground in de glammes way and hugged de ah lians leg with her utmost might)She tried to struggle with me and I was like MY PHONE!!!!!!!!
When I grabbed it right, I felt the damn thing there already!
I kept tugging at it and hoping the phone will come out and she was like shaking me off.
When I finally let go, she still kept insisting that she didn't take it hor.
Like, helloooo.
My phone is inside your smelly boots.
I kept pleading with her to return it to me and told her I wouldn't call the police or anything.
But she still kept saying she didn't have it.
Finally, she took out my phone and she flung it on the floor.
But it bounced off Amy's foot instead which caused her a bruise.
Ouch. I went 'MY PHONE!!!'
Ran towards it and grabbed it and stood far far far away from her after that
(missed this part cos i went to call de police)Everyone else settled the matter for me.
(aunties are superbly niceone kept consling abide other one told her not to give in so easilyand one emptied her bag of chestnuts so abi could use de plastic bag to contain evidencesuperbly cutewho said aunties were just busybodies)Her bf at first said that she was on drugs and told us to let her off or something.
(her bf told wenna she was on bail and asked us to let her offonly when she realised we did indeed call de police did she get scaredshe told her bf she din wanna go into de lockup againand insisted on seing abi to ask her to drop de caseand NO words of sorry!!!! how rude!)And then everyone started to shield me and told me not to look at them.
So I didn't care lah.
I searched my phone and I also realised that she threw my sim card.
Actually, I wanted her to give me back my sim card and I'll forget about it.
Everyone told me not to bother about her and wait for the police to come.
She also kept insisting that she didn't know it was my phone
(she said she din steal she only took it)That I just left it there or something. GAH.
Anyway, the police came and all. And they handcuffed her.
(and they only handcuffed her to her back cos she was being a major irritant trying to ask her boyfriend to rush to her sidebut her bf was warned to leaveand she kept saying if he left he would be dead)Super drama.
The police told her bf to leave but the girl refused to let him go.
She also said that if he leaves, she's gonna leave him.
Hahaha. But the police just said that they'll arrest the guy too if he helps.
(they got de policewoman to relay de msg which de officer blatantly broadcasted to de crowdand de other malay policeman said to make it fast and not make him wait like a bloody foolde bf din wanna leavede tattoo uncle was like asking him to leave and dump de gurl in hokkien)After that the guy kinda asked us to drop the matter and all.
But we already reported what.
Then we just left the place and went to the police station
At cantonment road to take our statement and all.
(which took uberly long)Then my parents came and made a big fuss and made things even worse.
But now it's fine.
Figured that I'm starting all my sentences with Then, And, Actually, But..Oh welllll.
It was traumatising and all.
Seriously! Thanks to everyone who was there.
The tattoo shop uncle
(de hero of de day)Some aunties who hung around and protected me from the scary ah lian
(breaking all stereotypes of aunties)
The lady who went into the toilet to catch her
(de heroine)And esp Sihui, Yiling, Wenna and Amy.
(no probs abi :))THANKS YEAH.
Hoho. I just landed someone in jail.
(hooray! one lesser evil on de streets de guy should just get another girlcos he seemed very nice and understandingwithout even like threatening us when he knew we called de policeand she even lied to him when he asked if she stole de phone)disclaimer yet againall de ah lians speech is in chi
