A Close Shave

Last Sunday I brought Ethan to TPY Popular. After our shopping for books we decided to have lunch there. Just as I was unloading my “books barang” on the floor before I queued up for cash withdrawal @ an enclosed UOB area on the second floor, a big tanned man rushed into the area started to bang & kicked the door of UOB.

Ethan was shocked standing there. The man suddenly turned around & asked me “Is the bank open today?” I replied I am not sure. He was standing less than a metre from me. I started to panic , grabbed my things & pushed the glass door. I was so worried that he will do something nasty towards Ethan. I shouted “Ethan, run “. The poor boy was standing there dumbfounded traumatized by the man. I quickly pulled his hands & started running towards the escalator. The guy was still shouting & yelling at us.

With all these happening even though the mall is packed, no one actually stopped , asked or even helped - so vulnerable. This is how the society is—to each meant its own ….

Despite that the little one can still be naughty, active & getting rebellious...
