Something unfortunate happened just now.
I was getting ready for tuition when the bibik called me using a public phone telling me that she got robbed.
The handphone was stolen.
She only carried the handphone with her whenever she sends Nyla to school.
Luckily, the incident happened after Nyla was already safe in school.
Or so I thought because that was what she said.
Anyway, as tomorrow is the start of Ramadhan, I told the bibik to sleep after doing her Isyak prayers.
I felt sorry for her. I bet she was traumatised.
I was watching television with Nyla when Nyla said,"Mommy, I want to tell you something."
Me: What is it sweetie?
Nyla: Just now, a tall, tanned and thin man send me and bibik to my school.
He touched my chin and said Hi Baby.
Me: Right.
I heard what I had to hear and I was fuming mad.
I woke the bibik up. She wasn't sleeping yet. Of course la...since her conscience wasn't clear.
I interrogated her and then she confessed.
No, that tall man wasn't her boyfriend.
He is a big bad wolf, pretending to be a gentleman by escorting the bibik and my babe to school on a rainy day. Then as my helper was walking back to the bus stop, he took the handphone and scooted away.
(See! Never ever talk to any strangers!)
Yes, I was disappointed with the bibik for not being honest with me from the start.
I really sayang this helper of mine. Seeing her cry bucket of tears as she confessed was pretty painful to see.
Sigh.
Enough of the drama. My phone has been ringing non stop for the past one hour. Nyla's overly concerned Tok Daddy, Tok Mummy and her uncles were sick with worry.
I kept reassuring them and they still call asking the same questions again and again!
Well we just thank Allah that my baby girl is safe and sound.
I also realise here that kids can be reliable witnesses and they definitely don't lie.
(In Nyla's case as seen in the video, it's because she does not want a long nose ala Pinocchio!hah!)
