當你正走在坎坷路, 我會伴你在左右?
It was rest day today. I was wondering if I want to go for the hike or not. I went in the end. I thought I am late, but people came later. Alright, enough said. We set off and it was good. The walk was alright, the hike was alright, the conversations were alright. Towards the end, I was lagging behind and J was way behind looking at things. I struggled to keep up, trying hard not to lose sight. They just kept walking and walking and walking, without an intention to wait up.
Then for a moment I turn to look behind. J was there at the junction wondering which way did we turn to. I stop and waved at him, the rest walked on. I decided to wait for him, the rest was already out of sight.
Both of us walked on. We reached the tower, J said they might be on the top waiting for us. He went up, I waited below. No one was there. J made a wasted trip. We carried on walking. We took the wrong path and walked back. Then the call came. We were asked to go back on our own.
No bag, no mobile phone. All I had on me was $3.40, an EZ Link card and an almost emptied bottle.
We carried on walking. We reached the road, we walked along the road to where we do not know. Then we realise we are in the middle of the high way. We crossed over, thinking maybe we can walking along Eng Neo flyover or something that work. We saw the hill and we almost wanted to climb over. We walked back to where we came from.
Finally, we saw a bus stop.
I wondered why no one waited. I know someone is in a rush, but would waiting for a little while eats into your precious time? So much for " 當你正走在坎坷路, 我會伴你在左右".
The feeling of being abandoned.
