This is too much.

Few days ago, a friend rang me up and asked me whether am I free to send her mother to the hospital for check up. I've agreed to send her mother straightaway without considering cause she sounds rather sad in the conversation plus she's not in Penang and I was thinking the reason she asked for my help is because none of the family members can fetch her mother as they were at outstation etc.

Since I'm having holiday, I don't have to wake up early but I've to get up around 7.15am to get ready and send her mother from mainland to island. She never told me the location to pick her mum up so I assume that I shall pick her up from her home. When I reached her home, I was somehow or rather shock her sis at home. Why can't her sis fetch her mother to the hospital?

So I waited at her house, around 8.40am my mum rang up and told me her mum is waiting for me at her working place. So, I drive there to pick her up. This is fine.

From her mum's mouth I managed to know that my friend's sis is having a meeting on the mainland and told her mother. (It's impossible for me to fetch you to the island and rush back to the mainland for the meeting.)

Hey dude! LOOK! This is your mother. Don't talk bout rushing back from island to the mainland. If you don't want to rush here and there you should ask for a leave. How can you say that to your mother?? This is your responsibility as a daughther. Need me to say more? Even me an outsider also can sacrifice my sleep to send your mum ther why can't you? Shame on you. Sorry to say it directly but that's the fact. Please note that I didn't owe you anything it's not compulsory for me to drive you mother.

Yesterday she came back, so we went out for dinner and she came to pick me up. When we were paying the bill she said she don't has small change so I gave her treat and yet she dares to mention that I'm still owing her a treat. I said what bout I helped you to fetch you mum to the hospital? She answered me by saying I come to pick you up for dinner. So it's fair. WTH!! Don't you know how to calculate the distance from you place to my place and the distance from mainland to the island? The moment I heard that, it really hurts. This is so-called friend?

It doesn't meant that I'm greedy waiting for you to repay me but I just want to see a sincere heart. You might be kidding with you words but sorry this is not the way you thank someone. If you happen to see this, think and see even your own father and sister can't send your mother to the hospital and me as an outsider willing to do this. Please don't assume that I'm having a holiday and it's compulsory for me to send you mother. Even my mother ask me to wake up early to send my brother to school on the island for exam I told her sorry I want to sleep. Even my own granny admitted to the hospital I didn't send her to hospital for check-up too. Who you think you're? The reason why I help you is because of the friendship but you're too much and you've ruined it. That's the end.

Hey, Tiff here..
Wow, your so-call friend..
But frankly, there are people like that and it ain't worth to get upset over it.
People will never see their own fault.
Anyway, take care !!
