Well this is the story of how i found it.
2:00am Friday: (Eskor) Feeling hopeless and depressed.... (thoughts)
How could I have been so careless... now Im laptopless and its all thanks to my forgetful.... (Pause)
Eskor: (Out loud): OMG! OMG! (now rapid repetition) OMG OMG OMG!
(Amanda stirs in her sleep! Eskor quickly hushes so as not
wake her, but rushes out to the dining and Savy is sitting a at the table)
Eskor: (to Savy) You wont believe what happened...... I found my laptop.
Savy: (excited but not enthusiastic): How?
Eskor: (rapidly) Someone found it and returned it to the police and
I got a mail that says i should call and reclaim.
Savy: (sleepily) Oh cool!
Eskor enthusiastically goes to bed forgetting to switch off Amandas room lights. the Ingrate.
NEXT DAY (TANGLIN POLICE HEADQUARTERS) 2:00PM
After a brief wait a short, stout china man in police uniform comes out behind the counter. He has a certain air of self importance. He pauses looks questioningly at Eskor and beckons him forward. Eskor timidly takes two steps and pauses as the man gives a second look of obvious curiousity. Eskor continues on and takes a sit. It feels like he walked 10 miles to get to the seat.
Police Officer: (thick high pitched singlish accent): So you're Eskor Ah?
Eskor: (Amused by his unexpected accent): Yes.
Police Officer: You loss a Macbook Ah?
Eskor: (now relaxed and composed): Yes
Police officer: So how you loss it ya?
Eskor: (feeling stupid): I left it at the SJII Bus stop..
Police man: (gives a stern look, shows Eskor a piece of paper)
We call his number, the person say no one like that la.
Eskor: (feeling even more stupid): Sorry didnt have a phone was my friends number... there is a long pause.
