the RED kancil

every morning, i go to the hosp by taking the public transport, namely mara bus that passes infront of my housing area. to go to the stop, i will have to make a three-minutes walk and i will be waiting by the road side. as i have to take the earliest bus possible, i usually leave the house at about 0655 hours, because the bus passes there at very inconsistent timing, sometimes late, sometimes early. to be safe, i go out even before i could miss it.

i have been taking the bus constantly for about 3-4 months now. during the school days, there will be other school going children waiting with me. sometimes, i will be alone, especially now that it is the school hols, and sometimes there will be other people there.

well, it is rather normal albeit irritatingly boring that i get cat-calls from the motorists that pass by. as usual, i will ignore them and keep on listening to my radio. so far, nothing bad has happened. but for the past 2 days, there is this certain RED kancil that slows down infront of me while i was waiting for the bus and kept on looking at me. the first day, i totally ignored him. then, he made a stop just a few metres after the spot where i was standing. i think he is expecting me to go over and take his ride. after a few excruciating minutes, he went off , seeing that his move was unaccounted for.

yesterday, as i was waiting there with one other person, the same RED kancil passed by, and this time, he stopped right infront of me!!! i was so shocked and scared, but i kept a straight face. his window was down and he dilligently offered me his ride. i just looked at him, shook my head, and said "no". then he went off. palpitations were already dominating my precordium.

thank God i have no hospital today. but of course i will have to repeat my wait on sunday. i hope after 2 days (today and tomorrow) not seeing me there, he will not pass that place anymore.

i can quite remember his face, but i didn't check out his plate number.

i am worried.
