'P' for Parking

There was one Sun that I promised my hommie and friends to drive them out for dinner. When I got into my car, there wasn't any sound from my engine when I started my car. Oh Noooo!! Not again!!! Something wrong with my battery? It is an half-year-old battery. **start cursing from my bottom of my heart** Had no choice, but to abandon my car. My hommie drove.

When I reached home after the dinner. I took all tools I have trying to 'fix' the battery. Yea... tried to 'fix' as in unscrewing the battery and and screwing it back. Still it didn't work. Kept calling my brother in Ipoh for SOS. But still didn't work. I surrendered. Decided to call mechanic in next morning (Monday).

On Monday morning, sms my boss that I will be in office late due to car broke down. Then walked twice since 9am to the workshop down hill there to get a mechanic. Finally, the mechanic came at 10am. Then I showed him how dead is my car.

Mechanic: what's wrong?
Me: can not start lah. **take out key and try to start car** See, dun even have sound. Is it battery problem ah? My car is dead now, how to go to work? Aiyo.
Mechanic: Impossible leh. Alarm is working fine. Couldn't be is battery problem one woh. Is it autocar?
Me: Yes. Then???
Mechanic: Check the gear and see how?
Me: OPSSSssssss..... it's at 'R' = Reverse Gear.... Errrrr.... **put the gear back to 'P' and restar**
------ Start car and car is back to normal --------

**me looked at mechanic innocently and smiled**

Felt like digging a hole to hide myself at that point of time.

Reached office at 11am +++. Brother rang me up. He laughed aloud over the phone when I told him what was happening this morning. He just couldn't believe that I'm an Auto-car Driver.

And he teased me when I was in Ipoh last weekend. Cis!!!!
