Apple's Accident

started worryin wen i received a call from apple last nite. he told me his car scratched a police car accidentally.

i went to look for him last evening to clear some admin stuffs and it was quite late wen he sent me home. both of us were dead tired for me spending the whole day facing the pc and him clearing piles of work on/off site. normally i would receive his msg abt 40 mins after i got hm, but it was past the duration and i decided to drop him a msg. he called me and told me it's a small matter, jus some scratches but my instinct/my 多疑 character told me sth is wrong. he doesnt sound right in the call. i knew i couldnt go to slp jus like tat and esp wen he haven reach hm.

i was tryin to relax myself, but if u noe my pattern, how to relax? no details was given by him, i duno where is he or wat is he doin. at tat pt of time, a lot of thoughts passed thru my mind:

- if only i took a cab hm, den this wouldnt happen
- if i din insist on being perfect on writing tat article, i wun drag tat late
- how is he doin? how serious was the matter?
- wil the thing affect his application?
- police car leh? wil he be fined and given demerit pts?
- his beloved 'wife' is damaged and how is he feeling? shocked from the hit?
and many more.. i dislike myself for being like this, but tat's my 紧张大师 character. always like to tink of the worst.

at tat pt of time, i reli wished i was there with him. but i cant. i could only pray hard at hm that everything's ok, and sent him msgs to "cheer" him up, give him some moral support. the msgs i got later in the nite was "no injury involved", "ok u rest earli k", and "ok gal". and it was pourin heavily suddenly at 2am.. and he isnt hm yet.. finally at 2.38am, he got hm but i stil couldnt slp due to over-anxiety.

this mornin, i dropped him a msg to find out how is he.. seems like 小红受伤了, meaning no small deal.. he was on his way to make a police report, get the tow truck to garage and service the car and make another report on the accident.

the feeling of helplessness was too overwhelming.. together with the worry-ness abt him.. thk god he was unhurt, safe and sound. but 小红就惨了.

a lesson learnt - dun be too 固执 and insist on perfection for my works. and to drive safely.

老天爷,请保佑苹果和小红都无大碍 - apple to be freed from serious penalty and the car not to disfigure too much. 保佑,保佑。
