My aunt is being hospitalized today...I don’t know what’s wrong with her...suddenly she cannot breath and my mom is very panic there in Singapore. I wish I were there to help her... L @ least one of my cousin is there to help, my both brothers are there (oh lucky brother of mine who can skip work for every 2 weeks...*envious grin*) and I heard two of the daughter in laws are catching up there as well. I hope she will be alright. After all she is a very nice aunt with a very nice heart and soul.

I am staying home today. I am not in the mood to go out. I received some unexpected call from my old dear friend J It’s so nice to hear from someone whom I haven’t heard for a while. Only that he is ‘kerjai’ me a bit! Here’s the conversation:

Mr. T : Hello, can I speak to Lia please?
Me : Yeah it’s me speaking. Who is this?
MT: Well, I am someone you don’t know about but I want to get to know you, may I? My name is Rio
Me: Rio? (I was like scratching my head cos I had been introduced to another Rio recently and I was wondering if he’s the same guy). Rio who?
MT: My name is Rio. A friend of mine gave me your number.
Me: Who is your friend?
MT: N...
Me: N? He gave you my number????
MT: Yes
Me: How is N? I haven’t heard about him since long time ago
MT: Oh he moved to Germany, don’t you know that?
Me: Did he? Oh I didn’t know. When? The very last time I heard about him was that he moved to Ambon, not Germany. So he is catching up his little brother then
MT: I think he is. So how is your friend, Y doing?Me: Y? You know Y as well?
MT: Yes
Me: Which Y are you talking about? I have friends go by the same name you know
MT: That Y, your cousin, not your friend
Me : (I went silent for a moment ‘cos Y, my cousin, obviously doesn’t know N) Who is this actually?
MT: It’s Rio...(then he laughed)
Me: Oh my God! It’s youuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu...bloody hell....urghhh like I wanna kill you now!
MT: hahahaha I cannot believe it you don’t recognised my voice! I meant I have given you so many clues and yet you didn’t realise it’s me
Me: I was so suspicious ‘cos you mentioned N and Y at the same time and I know for sure both of them don’t know each other and you make it as if they’re friends and you are friends with both of them! So how is it going with you, man? It’s been a while and that’s why I received like 3 missed calls from this number last night and I assumed it must be from someone I know!
MT: Why is that?
Me: Cos if the caller didn’t know me, he/she wouldn’t dare to give me call mercilessly like you did last night. I had been asking around since yesterday morning. I thought it was my friend who called but she said it’s not her number. And your missed call was like colided with YO..both of you called me at the same time.
MT: Yeah he gave me the wrong number ya know. I deleted your number cos I thought you didn’t return here. So when I heard from him that you’re already here, I asked him your number and he gave me the wrong number! I couldn’t get you earlier, that’s why....
Me: Oh ic ic...I wonder whose number he gave you (chuckled). So how are you? How’s everything here?....

And the conversation went on and on until I had to end the phone call ‘cos I needed to call two other of my friends. I felt guilty when I called the real Rio and he was nearly asleep! (Sorry Rio). I smsed him earlier and promised that I would return his call as soon as I finished my phone call which ah well if I didn’t end it, I might go above midnight....by the time I finished calling Rio and Phem, I was very sleepy. I didn’t really finish talking to Phem, my sister was still talking to her and I left the two of them cos I couldn’t keep my eyes open. I hit the rack and listening to the songs I recorded earlier in my sister room and I was so smitten with this song “A Home for you”...it’s a touching song with touching lyrics. My sister told me it’s a church song...
