an eventful night
last night as lishan, peishan whitney and i were getting ice-cream, the smell of smoke just filled the shop. we went out to look at the whole street from newzealand natural to another lygon eatery was really smokey. the firemen was there.. the police.. ambulance.. and of course the kpo crowd. there was quite a big commotion and they'd blocked out part of the street as well.
so anyway the 4 of us found ourselves in 7/11 after a fruitless search for pies. and as we were looking around, this big group of coloured teenage boys entered. while two of the headed to th back of the store, the rest crowded round the cashier and said something to the asian pos register guy. we realised something was wrong..
"no it's not right.".. "hey you two! come here!!".."no you come here!"
the register dude was just shouting and the group of guys were mucking around and the four of us just stood there in silence till i decided we'd better get out before stuff got violent.
so the 4 of us headed for the door but realise it wouldn't open. we were all trapped inside the store together with the people who were trying to rob/steal. i was so freaked out. then one of the black boys said "let them out"
and the register dude went "ok i let them out. you come here!"
the doors opened and we left as quickly as our hearts were beating.
then we saw the group of them leaving the store behind us.
so freaking scary. thank God we were safe. it didn't seem real at all.
about half an hour later we headed to safeway and saw the same group of guys heading out. they passed us as we walked in.. then we saw another of them running out of safeway. nothing happened.. we went in.. did our shopping and as we were about to leave we saw the guys outside still outside safeway. i think all of us were terrified cause no one said anything.. we just looked at each other and turned back to safeway to "do more shopping". it was so super scary.. esp for me with my sprained ankle cause if they were to do anything, i wouldn't be able to run.
well.
that added a little spice into my night.
