Have your parents ever warned you not to mix around with that particular kid? That boy your parents tell you to stay away from? And everything your parents don't want you to end up to be like? I'm that guy.

Guys, gaining experiences are awesome. It's unexpecting and random yet useful. It gives us a deeper insight to our 'life journey'. Sometimes, these experiences motivates us & some tears us apart. But what happens if that particular experience just leaves you speechless?
The other day, me & Lily was randomly approached by this chinese guy. Probably in his mid-3os and was wearing casual wear. Now, being approached by a stranger was mentally shocking enough but the thing that made me came up with various scenarios was his 'story'.
The details might be a little foggy so I'm just going to summarize. He approached us and told us that he needed cash to get home. He was 'disturbed' by a group of people near the coffee shop and his home telephone line was cut off. He continued his life story with a little background of his dad's death and how it changed his life from an Ah-Beng to a responsible citizen. I swear I couldn't find any link to his detailed story but one thing for sure, he needed money and I didn't believe a single word from his mouth.
I had to come up with my own fake story & so I told him I lived nearby and that I didn't bring any money. At first I thought he was asking me to beat up the guys that disturbed him. Then I thought he was going to rob us. He got polite and left us after I apologized that I didn't have any cash with me. He left us with a finally greeting- 'Don't need to apologize. Selamat Hari Raya!'
As much as shocking it was, I learnt a valuable lesson from all these.
Guys, if you want money, just go straight to the point.
