Yesterday, I drove to my baby house to fetch her to work. When I reached at my pi block, and was trying to park my van into a parking lots at the multi-storey car park, an old man who was riding on a bicycle had stopped cycling and was looking at me.

He had caught my attention and I was wondering why is this old man staring at mi for ? This old man looks in his late 50s, I thought he might intend to quarrel with mi which something might have offended him. But it's turn out different as what i thought.

The moment I step out of my van, the old man walk up to mi. He spoke in hokkien to mi, he claimed that somebody had been following him around the car park. I was confused. Follow on, he said that the person who follow him is a friend of his China woman's friends.

So I had play along with him, " Why is that so ? " I asked him. He said that he got to know a woman from China and became friends later on. He claimed that he had nothing to do at home while he is jobless and furthermore her daughter had grow up. He was alone and so he had gone to make new friends with some China woman.

"Oh. Really ? " I reply. I continue to walk to my pipi nearby market to buy cigarette, and the old man follows. While he was riding on his bicycle side by side with mi walking towards the market, he said that the China woman had cheated his money, and he emphasized that she had cheated more than $30,000 from him.

"Wow, that's a lots of money ! " I reply.
