Sunday morning when I woke up I got a text from my friend Duncan who was organizing the Animation Comic Game Convention (ACGC) that was taking place at Berjaya Times Square.
He asked me to drop by if I’m free so I asked Sam if she was keen to go and she said okay.
I got there around twelve-ish and it was great.There were all these computers around for the people there to try out some of the online games around today and even a Call of Duty 4 competition.
I love First Person Shooter games. Heck I was damn bloody good in Half-Life and CS (Especially Half-Life) but I’ve never before played Call of Duty 4 so I didn’t even bother trying to compete.
I’m so left behind in computer games now it’s actually shocking. And to think I used to call myself a hardcore gamer. Ish… shame on me.
But hey since I was there I decided to try on some of the games they had there.I tried on this game called…. Ok I can’t remember what it’s called but it’s some MMORPG game from Korea (yeah I know.. I’m not exactly narrowing it down for anyone here).
Anyway….. I figured that since I couldn’t really play many of the games there, I would just walk around and check out all the people dressed in Cosplay.
Heck it was pretty fun.
I mean we had people dressed like Hellboy.Girls dressed like some Anime characters that didn’t really ring a bell to me.
Whom I really don’t know who he’s supposed to be.
It didn’t take long before a girl dressed in a Japanese School Girl uniform came up to me and offered me a balloon.
Now when a hot Japanese School Girl offers you a balloon you take it!!! You JUST TAKE IT!!!
Heck even if she comes and offers you a lump of dog shit you say
“Arigatou gozaimasu!”
I was a little excited though.
I mean heck… the last time I got myself a balloon was when I was a little kid. Ever since then, nobody ever bothered to give me a balloon seeing that I’m all grown up and all so when handed me a balloon.. hey I felt young again!!!
I decided to give my balloon a name at the point in the time.I called it “Behloon“.
Armed with my Behloon I walked shamelessly around the area to check out more of the Cosplay outfits.
They were all pretty cool so I decided to take pictures with a few of them (With Behloon of course).
Since Sam was there with me I would say
“Hey could you please help me take a picture” and go ahead and pose with whoever the Cosplay character was.
Now here’s where it started. Before a woman unleashes her wrath on you, she will always give you a few warnings. A few may be less than 3 but definitely at least ONE warning.
The stupid thing with men is that more often than not, we don’t notice those warnings until much later on.
The first warning came when I was going looking at the girls around and saying
“Holy shit.. that girl is pretty!!!” and Sam replied with a
“Where got hot… her nose not nice”. (She was actually quite pretty but I didn’t take a good photo).
Being the man I was, I ignored that warning unintentionally.
Then I went on and saw this girl in a Maid Cosplay kind of outfit.
I got so excited and went up to her and said
“Come come take picture with me and my Behloon”.
Sam grunted
“Why like that also you want to take picture with? Please lah!!!”.
That was my second warning but I ignored it again.Finally, I was walking around when I spotted this girl dressed in a pink outfit.
I have no clue what she character she was supposed to be but she looked kinda cute to me!
I wanted to go take a picture with her but so did everyone else and she was so busy taking all those pictures, I didn’t get a chance so I tried repeatedly to get a good picture of her.
After this picture I felt that I didn’t get a good enough picture of her so I tried again and again.
That was when Sam shouted
“I SWEAR YOU TAKE ANOTHER PICTURE OF HER AND SEE WHAT WILL HAPPEN TO YOU?!?!”
Now that warning was pretty pretty clear even to a dumbass like me.
So I backed off and said
“Okay okay… lets go home”.
I grabbed my Behloon and started walking off.
On the way back to the car I was playing around with Behloon, bouncing it off Sam’s head and going
“Boing.. boing… boing…” you know just for some childish fun.
Sam looked pissed. She didn’t look entertained at all
I mean online when you see her blog you see cute cute pictures of her like that you think she’s a little harmless puppy right?
But let me assure you… if you get on her bad side… she will finish you off!
So I decided not to push her limits and I walked ahead of her a little bit with Behloon.
Suddenly I heard a loud BANG which echoed off all the walls in Berjaya Times Square’s lobby. Almost at the same time I felt a GUSH of air between my arm and body where I was carrying Behloon like a football.
I turned back to see Behloon on the floor, destroyed.
Sam looked at me and started laughing away
“HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAAAA YOU SHOULD SEE YOUR FACE RIGHT NOW!!! LIKE A SAD LITTLE BOY WHO JUST LOST HIS BALLOON!!!”.
I got angry and I shouted
“WHY YOU BURST MY BEHLOON?”
and she defended herself with lies.
“I didn’t burst your Behloon, it just burst itself”.
Even that didn’t made sense to me… HOW IS THAT POSSIBLE? HOW CAN MY BEHLOON BURST ITSELF??!?!She just kept laughing away.
So there you have it everyone.
Hell Hath No Fury Like A Woman’s Wrath.
You piss her off, you get on her bad side, and she will hit you where it hurts.
In this case, it was Behloon, the very first balloon I have had in many many years.
As I drove home, the silence in the car was deafening.
We didn’t speak to each other.
