i often dream of how nice it would be if i have a supersonic cruiser just infront of my office so when i knock off late at night, i could just step onto it, press the "go" button and i could be at my house the next minute.
however, life's isn't that perfect, which is why we all have dreams in the first place! guessed this is as close as it can get...
9.50pm. As i shut down my computer, i give shuttle bus uncle at the guard house a call to inform him to wait for me at the porch at 10pm sharp. most of the time, bus uncle would be late even though i told him to be there at 10, and not leave the guard house at 10. 10.05pm. I quickly walk down the stairs. the aircon seems to be colder since everyone has left. i board the shuttle bus and dail Prime taxi's number. i always luv to dail Prime taxi for cabs because they are always so so efficient. its really a blessing to be able to get a cab in this part of Singapore where i'm working, esp at night. I guessed I have become Prime taxi's frequent customer...
" yes, miss, a cab for you at the same location as yesterday's?"
"yes, pls"
"ok, miss, pls wait for a moment"
the waiting music starts to play. the shuttle bus now is waiting for the traffic light to turn green. good, if everything goes smoothly, the cab will reach the guard house just as when i will alight the shuttle bus.
"ok, miss, taxi number 2068, waiting at the guard house, arriving in 2 minutes"
"thank you!!"
10:13pm. shuttle bus reaches the guard house. the security guard checks my bag. I walk towards taxi number 2068, board, and i'm on my way home!
