“si liao...”
I should start to think before I talk.
“where you now? 4 am already....” I asked.. just to change topic.
“me ar? Now at Jurongpoint there. The interchange. I run from home.”
So I asked him what happened before that. He answered me in a mix of hokkien, english and mandarin. Im gonna write in english since I know only basic mandarin and hokkien vulgarities... nothing more.
“Just now I in my room with my sister. She ask me help her do homework. So difficult arh! I do her primary six work ar like doing sec three work! ...”
