twisting and turning of fate in everyday life

Today my hubby had to get up early to send me back to the uni.. In order to make sure he will catch the 7.30 train to KL Sentral from Serdang (that's where we live), we supposed to be on the road by 6.30 am to send me first to Bangi then turn back to Serdang to catch the train.

However, as usual (this has happened a few times), we were late (it was already 7.00 am) so I offered to take the Comuter to UKM. As usual also, he will argue with me because I brought along such a big and heavy bag and he (as a good husband) didn't want me to carry it by myself (oh so sweet and considerate). But I managed to convince him (because I don't want him to be late for work) and we end up at the KTM Serdang Station.

When we get there, there was a train to Rawang (he was supposed to get into that train) but it was just 7.11 am so he said that he will catch the next train. Just as the train chugged by, there was an announcement about power outage in one of the station so there will be more than 60 minutes delay for the next train (until they solve the problem). Duh!! So, what to do? We went out of the station (on the way to the car I stopped a few people to say there is a one hour delay but they didn't seemed to believe me so I didn't bother to tell other people that I met later) and he sent me to UKM by car and said he will drive to KL Sentral and park there (there's a bus there to take him to his workplace in Damansara).

At last, he was the one who sent me back (after much of arguing and convincing in the car before we reached KTM Serdang Station which used my voice and saliva a lot), I didn't have to carry that monstrous bag, he end up driving to Damansara (had to park very far from the building he work in because there were no more parking space) and was late for work. Hmm...so much of not wanting him to be late. Well, fate has something for us and this is just one of it!

Well KTM Comuter service, please be considerate to people and upgrade the system. Another duh!!!
