I have this sad tales to share in my blog today. However, I need protect the identity the person involved as she doesn't know that I would make this as one of my post here. Sorry, Ms W.
In order to maintain her anonymity, lets call her Ms. W.
I had known her since our secondary school days. Which is exactly two decades...phew....am I that old hah ? Yup..we left our beloved all-girls school way back in 1988. She started working meanwhile yours truly went to an all-boys school for Form 6.
Both of us went separate ways but kept in touch thru phone calls and meet for makan once in a blue moon. You know lah..the gap between a student and a working personnel...two different world. Our topic of conversations were narrowed to merely exchanging greetings.
Nevertheless, our friendship still maintains right till today.
Over the years, we did visit each other and go for lunches together.
I received a call from Ms. W on Sunday morning. She sounded pretty sad as if she was facing some trouble. I invited her for 'dim sum' but she rejected. I suspected something amiss in her voice.
Ms. W's call still bothers me....so I ....
So, I went over to Ms. W's office this afternoon, hoping that I could get a clearer picture of it.
It's school holidays and my schedule wasn't tight. Furthermore, my boy had gone over to grandma's house. ...which means...yours truly could 'sneek-out' for a lil "jalan-jalan,buat siasatan".
There's a famous chicken rice outlet near Ms. W's office, so I thought perhaps we could have lunch together.
But her colleague informed me that Ms. W. is on MC.
To cut the story short, yours truly being a 'kei poh chi'.......hopped over to Ms. W's house which is a short distance away.
I was shocked to see her this time around. She literally looked like a walking aubergine @ brinjal. Her entire face were swollen and there were bruises on both cheeks.
She attempted to hide it with a face towel. Tears emerged from her redden eyes.
I didn't utter a single word but immediately hugged her. I knew she needed it badly from a friend...a good friend.
When she regained her composure, I began to investigate.....kei poh chi la... I realised that there were more blue black marks on her other body parts.
I wonder....What kind of homo sapien could have this heart to do this inhuman act to such a fragile woman?
I do not know what actually happened in her relationship with her man.....but I strongly disagree to see men laying hands on the weaker sex.
I really looked down on such beast ! What about you...?
Let's seek some justice...!
Ann's Advice for Ms. W.
-Lodge a police report.
-Leave him.
-Children ? You can bring up the kids without him as you're financially independent.
-Lastly....the decision still lies in your hands.
Hey..I'm not trying to be smart nor intending to replace Datuk Michael Chong.
This is just "Kei Poh Ann".
