9 Feb 2010 is the most unlucky day of my life....
Met into an accident just as i was leaving my office, there was this very big lorry in front of me who stopped at the stop line. While i was waiting for him to drive off i turned and talk to my sister and when i turned my head back after 5 seconds, the image of the BIG lorry got so near and big. Before i could hit the honk or do anything, it reversed onto my car. Haiz...... That driver called and informed his boss who happened to be our business acquaintance, decided on a private settlement. Case closed!!
Just when i thought my luck was bad for the day, i received a phone call during dinner at MIL place which scare the hell out of me. My maid called and asked if i have brought my dog (bebe) home? I was stunned for a moment and said "No"!!!! She then told me in a super anxious tone that bebe is not anywhere at home and went on blabbering that bebe might have ran out when she left the door wide open to shift in the plants from outside. I cut her off her explanations and ask her to go search for her and i will return immediately.
I turned and told hubby that Bebe is missing and he thought i was joking cos my bro once played a prank on me. When i confirmed with both my brothers that non of them brought her out, i almost fainted cos this time is for real. When i told hubby that we need to go now, he told me this "You go first" then pointed to his rice. I was dumbfounded and stared at him with my jaw wide open. I cannot imagine that he still have the mood to eat when our dog is missing. He only realized that it isn't a joke when I burst out in tears.
When i was about to start running up the stairs to search for her, i saw my lil bro. He had just ran all the way down with no sight of her. I was disappointed but decided to try running up again. I called out her name continuously then i suddenly heard barking coming from a unit at level 4. We thought it was bebe and knocked frantically at the door only to frighten the auntie who hesitate awhile before opening her door. We were disappointed when we saw that it was not her.
Hubby began running up and i followed behind, just then i think i heard my lil brother shouting out to me "Da Jie, 我找到Bebe了" I paused for a moment before running to where his voice is coming from. While i was running down, i saw bebe in his arms. I broke down and hugged her so tightly. Both of us were trembling so badly. Everyone took some time to calm down as this incident certainly scare the hell out of everyone.
My other brother along with grandparents and uncle arrived shortly, they had initially wanted to help with the search but is glad that we found her. All thanks to this kind lady, who was walking her probably hoping to bump into us. She told lil bro Siang that bebe was caught in the rain earlier when she found bebe. I believed this lady must be a dog lover too, she cleaned up bebe and even wore a leash for her. I am truly grateful to her and regret not thanking her in person cos Siang just grabbed Bebe and ran off to inform me.
好人会有好报的!!! =) She will be blessed !!
I was telling this to them, am i really suay or are all these incidents actually blessing in disguise?? I had an accident but it was not major and no one was injured, dog went missing and i actually found her back. N not to mention that i was issued a $50 summon for that mere 10 minutes at my MIL place.
Oh well.... glad that everything is over.... For now, i just hope all my bad luck will go away with the end of this lunar year! May everything goes smoothly in the coming Tiger year!!
