Yesterday (18th Aug, Wednesday), I was attended by a mom who'd like to register her daughter for the art programme. It was lunch hour so I have no intention to accept any student at the moment (I was resting.. it's Puasa). The idea that they might came in just to register was totally twisted. The mom said they're having transportation to send and fetch her; so I was asked.
Mom: Is transportation provided?
Me: Oh, no. Because the class is only for 2 hours.
Mom: But we live nearby. Is there anybody who can send and fetch my daughter?
Me: Hurm.. I believe no. Normally we didn't go out as so many stuffs to be done here.
Mom: Don't you have transport yourself?
Me: Errr.. yes but I have to monitor the centre. Plus, I'm staying in Gombak.
Mom: Maybe you can fetch her at home and send her back, but what time you came back?
Me: I came back late. 7pm... 6.30pm during Ramadhan.
Mom: It's pretty late, maybe she could do two lessons and you send her home afterward. What about that? I'll you for that. (Her daughter nodded in agreement)
Me: (speechless) Er... but I never been to that area before.
Mom: It's very near, walking distance. But of course I won't let her crossing the road by herself, thus I need someone to send her home. Can you do the favor, chibi.
Me: (OhMiGod!) It's gonna be late, around 6.30pm. (I am so stupid, I unable to say no... That's my biggest weakness)
I was restless and telling myself not to tell my boss about it. Furthermore, I already received the pay for sending this kid home. (What the..........) In the end I told her anyway and she said I should've say no. And advice me to tell me the mother that I will only send her daughter home today.
I wasn't make a verbal promise but seems the kid is such a good girl, I have no bad feeling sending her home. I actually tell myself it wasn't a huge favor and I shall responsible on what I've agreed. I send her yesterday, yes... it was so near and no hassle at all. I think I like her too.
Oh ya, I'm gonna fetch her for art class today too. From a hasitation I suddenly feel so delighted by the favor, it makes me less lonely. Shall I tell my boss I'm willing to do it? I gonna be paid anyway. (mata duitan kan.. bagus.)
