Scene: Void Deck
I was waiting for my dad’s car at the void that when I saw this old man in his sixties. His grey silver hair has been parted to the right side and the side burns are cut straight. Well judging from that little hunch that he has, he should be about 1.65 metres tall. Just like any old man, his face is wrinkled and his eye bags were huge and sunken. He has a distinct mole on his left cheek that is approximately 0.5cm huge.(not really sure becuase it was about five metres plus away.) Dressed in black pants and stripey white collared shirt with an inside singlet, he stretched in his pocket his “Winston Reds” cigarette box. He took a cigarette out and lighted it with a blue lighter. I can picture a dragon tattoo hidden under that cloth of his, at the back of his torso. Well I am placing him in the lights of a secret society member in his younger days, running around chasing people down with “parangs”, just like those “chiong swau/pia chwee” kind. Picturing him as a relatively “suave” guy in his early days that has exhanged those “heroic” moments for a much more “stable” life after he found his significant other through the midst of his “missions”. However, I was wondering why he smoke Winston Reds when he can choose a stronger taste of cigarette like Camel brand or Gudang Garum. But then again probably that ah pek has been smoking Winston Reds all the while. And from his shifty eyes, he looks like he would possibly stub his cigarette out by stubbing it on my skin. Then after which he had this sense of satisfication face when he takes his puff, which seems like how he is picturing what he would be doing after he finishes that puff. Maybe he would just go to the Kopitiam nearby for his drinking sessions with his “kakis” who also just like him, has pledged himself to one woman and limited his own freedom.(not really true;marriage can be real bliss  too-my take) And drinking leads to spouting of nonsensical stuff about everything. Even politics! But this ah pek gives you the feel that you won’t want to mess with him. He may just be the “Godfather”.

Scene: Bus 74
I got onto bus 74 from the bus stop just outside NP to head to AMK to meet my girlfriend. And I headed for the upper deck of the bus and landed my bum onto a seat beside a girl whom seem to be her late teens.(Probably 18) She is quite petite in size and clothed in a plunging neckline black dress. She has black lacy stockings/leggings(whichever you call it) on. As I was sitting on her right, I could only see three piercings on her ear. She owns an IPOD Classic which has blinks on it. The last song which I caught a glimpse of was “Right Now” by Akon. As she decided to get off the bus at the stop near AMK hub, she said “excuse me” with a whiny “ah lian” tone and I saw the tongue piercing. As she walks, her ass sways.(Its so obvious that you won’t have to stare hard to even notice it. Judging from her “bad girl” image, I assume she is heading towards the K-POOL near AMK Hub to probably meet friends or something. She will draw attention the minute she walks in due to her “booty” shakes, be it intentional/unintentional. Her dressup sure draw gawks too at the Pool place and surely that plunging neckline will get more distracting when she bends to play pool. Some idiot sure will be like “Oh my fucking god, check out her boobs!”(which I have reservations about; because its not really flat but then again its not that big-so shall leave it to your imagination) Maybe some might nose bleed. And definitely that idiot will be noticed by the boyfriend of hers. On the basis of the girl’s image, her boyfriend can be no better. Some ah beng kia who want to act “big” too and “showoff” in front of his girlfriend. He would walk towards the idiot and ask “stare what stare”. Idiot denies. Boyfriend gets pissed and smashes idiot’s head on the pool table. That pretty conclude if you have a “attention seeking” girlfriend like her, surely draw “weird” eyes looking at her-not that I am weird; I got an assignment to do and she just happen to sit beside me, convenient eh? haha.
