'Helpful' Neighbours

Random green antique car that caught my attention while waiting for my cousin at SMK Batu Lintang

I mentioned about the slight problem which turned into a botheration on my mum's car at my previous post. Let me stretch into the details by inserting several characters - my neighbours.

Honestly I always thought that my neighbours were awesome people. Kind, helpful and generous if judged by their appearance and noble occupations they own. Neighbour X is a police officer while neighbour Y is a secondary school principal. The pre-existing profound quote that goes on reverberating in my ear " Do not judge a book by it's cover " apparently proves to be exactly accurate. Truth till the every bit.

Mum's vehicle broke down yesterday just when she was about to pick me from class, alarms were on madly and it wouldn't stop despite experimenting various buttons in the car. Soon after, the engine eventually died off leaving the vehicle motionless unable to work.

It caught the neighbours attention of course and trust me they did lend their helping hand... charitably and generously helpful when mum needed help the most.

Neighbour X : This one confirmed is because of 2 things, I can guarantee you it's because of these 2 things only. Nothing more than these 2 things [ as he went on mentioning about 'these 2 things' repetitively. ] First it must be your car battery! It has to be your car battery!!! Then second it's because your car has not been sent for servicing. I can confirmed you it must be....

He just went on blabbering repetitiously about these 2 things and mind you, he didn't even bother to examine mum's vehicle meticulously and came up with his conclusions.

Neighbour Y : *Glanced and smiled... finally went back to his house*

What sort of principal are you?? He just glanced and smiled, showing no concern or whatsoever &%*$# !!!

I'll try to be "The Best Neighbour" from now onwards. ^__^
