Part 9 Telephone
It was 11 plus at night. I am looking at the clock and waiting for
his call.
I was supposed to go to a countdown party with my friends, but
after Sky
called, I decided not to go and went straight home.
My hp finnally rang. Just as what I've been thinking, it was sky. I
was so
excited and anxious till nearly speechless..
Lynn: hi.....
Sky:"Sorry Lynn, called you up so late"
Lynn: No...nothing is ok...
Sky: Merry Christmas!~
Lynn: You too...
Sky: How are you nowadays ?
Lynn: Why did you suddenly appear again ?
Sky: ....you not happy to hear from me again?
Lynn: No.. i am just surprised..
Sky: Sorry I did not contact you for months as I had something very
important to do.
Lynn: I know..you are busy with your homework...
Sky: Lynn, I did not have time to call you as I can't even use the
phone. My parents had been
very strict to me after they knew about you. THey had kept my phone
away even..
Lynn: huh me??what you talking ? your parents know me meh?
Sky: ah nah...cos' that time I refused to go Australia and I told
them is because i don't wana leave

Lynn: Sky, I think you must understand one thing. For your age now,
if you can study, go ahead..don't

for sure.. not many people can afford to go
overseas to study ...you know...
Sky: Ya i know lar.....but I really don't wana leave you

Lynn: Is it....then how did you manage to come singapore now
?
sky: I.....actually run away from home......I refuse to attend my
lectures to rebel my parents. They had stopped
my credit cards and only gave me money when I go to school.
Lynn: What? !! Sky...you are wrong....how can you do this...
No...you better go back to your parents...
Sky: No ...since I already in this route, i am not going back
anymore..Lynn, i can only trust you now..
Lynn: .........how you manage to come to Singapore ? Did they
follow you ?
Sky: I sold all my valuable things..my playstation, my discman and
my watch...some of my limited stamp collection.
Then I managed to have enough money to buy tickets to
Singapore.
Lynn: oh my goodness..those are your favourites.....
Sky: No choice..I really miss you.....
Lynn: Sky...so where are you living now in Singapore?
Sky: I am currently at my friend's house.. tomorrow he will
introduce me to work in factory.
Lynn: what? you wana work ???you wana continue like this forever
?go back to your parents and tolerate for 2 years and
you can choose to do what you like wat... why so stubborn!?~
Sky: I like to do what I like..so that's why I left. Don't you
understand..They even matchmake me over there..want me to
get married so that I can take over their business.
Lynn: Your parents think for you what.. you are their only son.. of

I hanged up first..I had lots of thoughts after hanging up. I felt
Sky has becomed a changed person. He's not the one I loved
anymore..I can
feel it...Or is it the problem lies with me? how come the way I
talk to him seems to be like a normal friend..to me......I better
don't think so much..
I am so tired..I don't wana think anymore....is too much of things
and sudden to think about..all these..
