Bread snatchers

I feel cheated.

That's because I just got conned off my bread at Mid Valley! Seriously.

So I just bought my bread from Bread Story, and was waiting for Zaza at the entrance. A lady with Chinese accent walked towards me and asked me whether I can speak Mandarin. Thinking that maybe she wanted to ask for direction, I said yes. Then she launched into this story about how she has no money, that the ATM is not working, and she's so hungry that she's almost dying, and asked me whether I can borrow her some money so she can eat. I told her I have no money to spare, even when she promised to give it back tomorrow. So she asked for food. Reluctantly, I gave her one of my buns (and it was one of my favourite too!) to her, thinking that she will go away, but no! Apparently China people, especially those trying to cheat girls with bread, are very "muka tembok". After I gave her that bread, she asked for another one! For a friend, who immediately walked over to introduce himself, wait, sorry, not introduce, but who came over to ask me for ANOTHER bread. Sheesh....

I tried to not give it to him, but they were so bloody annoyingly persistant, so I gave it to them, thinking that they will go away after this. Again, I was wrong. Instead of leaving, they asked me for drink. I told them I have none, apparently, they saw the fruit juice that I bought, and asked for that! The nerve of them! I told them they can't have the fruit juice, but they kept pressing for it. Finally, after God knows how many NO I said to them, they finally got the message and stopped pestering me for it. BUT, that's not the end of it. They asked for money, AGAIN! I told them repeatedly no, and when they finally left, I saw them head straight out to the taxi stand and got into a taxi. After telling me that they have no money. The nerve!

So I was kinda pissed off, and kept ranting about it to Zaza all the way home. When I reached Tiara, I ranted about it again to my housemates, and also called dad to tell him about it. Dad actually laughed at me and said let it go since they only took my bread. I called Joy to tell her about it too. She said I should be thankful that I lost RM4.30 of bread, and I agreed with her. But I just wanted to rant till I ran out of steam, and now that I did, it's actually kind of funny when I tell people that my bread got robbed by China people.

Lesson learnt then. Sigh.... *wails loudly(my breaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaad!)*
