seeing wrongness Thursday, August 2, 2007 10:21 PM
i had to feel my heart being held hostage by my anger today.
but it's nothing to do with any sort of trauma.

perhaps just particularly crankier these days.

we watched Flashpoint today.
story's rather predictable,
but i must say the fighting scenes are downright EXCITING.

before the movie,
i was at the supermarket to get some lipton camomile tea bags,
to ease my crankier moods lately.
as i was browsing through some japanese crackers,
and soon noticed a young girl avoiding me rather obviously.

roughly 14 years old.
bespectacled, yellow tee, empty light blue opened sling bag --
the more i went to and fro the section,
she turned her back towards wherever i positioned myself.

after about 6 times of pacing left and right of this girl,
i said to myself this wasn't gonna work.

i HAD to catch her stealing the crackers with my very own eyes!
i walked towards another direction and turned back to where she was,
poof!
she disappeared.
it was a smooth move she had.
i got to the other lane and saw her adjusting her bag.
i supposed there was something in there by now.
but i prolly had no guts to go up to her and reprimand her,
so i went in search for a security guard.

shit,
there wasn't anyone proper looking i could talk to.

except for supermarket customers in queue.
so i went back to where i last saw her.
damn, she got away with it.
and man, do i feel guilty.
