The Fly Strikes Back
Woe on me. The Fly* is back….again.
Jolll: Hello
Fly: Harlo Joanne… How are u??
Fly: Do u know who I am?? (I hate, and I mean absolutely abhor pple who wants the other party to guess who they are. Why can’t they just identify themselves? It’s basic phone etiquette by simply saying I am so and so. What’s so hard about that? Only pathetic pple wants their identities to be speculated. Anyway I digress…)
Jolll: (Alarm bells ringing.. Ohh no.. it’s the dreaded fly…again. But no way am I giving him the satisfaction that I could recognize his voice. In my sternest, meanest, no-nonsense voice I answered) No. Who r you?
Jolll: Ya… Whats the matter? (Go away.. Shoo shoo.. Stop annoying me!!)
Fly: U free or not? Want to go for dinner? (1st attempt at dinner)
Jolll: No. Still busy at work. (Damn it, damn it.. I shouldn’t have answered the phone..)
Fly: Oh, u busy with tenders ah…
Jolll: hmmm…
Fly: So what time u finish work, lets go for dinner lah. (2nd attempt at dinner)
Jolll: No I am busy. (Don’t u get it? I said no already..)
Fly: Can lah, we can go for dinner afterwards mah… (3rd attempt at dinner)
Jolll: No. I have to go home after work!! (BloodyAnnoying fly… trying to push me into agreeing… No way!!)
Fly: Oh.. ok lor. Then next time lah, I buy u dinner. (4th attempt at dinner)
Jolll: See first lah… (No promises shall be made to you, even if I don’t mean it)
Fly: Can lah, next time we have dinner together hor.. (5th attempt at dinner.. still trying to get me to say yes..)
Jolll: I said I will see what happens next time. Ok, I gotta go. Bye.
The fly is back. Again. Got to get my fly spray ready at all times.
