A bit of chit chat

Haven't seen LH for quite sometime. Had a bit of chit chat with him last Friday. He told me about his "near-kena-whacked" experience when he was asked to watch his friend's house on his friend's marriage day. The story begins:

On the big day, whether or not his friend aware of the risk of leaving house empty on his big day but I guess his friend probably know they're spotted. Wedding dinner held in the evening, to avoid leaving the house empty, LH was asked to watch his house while all his friend's family members were out for wedding dinner.

As LH was washing the plates after dinner, he saw one or two of the window leaf was not properly positioned. He looked out the window but didn't see anything, nor did he hear any sound.

Two days later, his friend called him. He thought his friend was calling on courtesy to thank him. Who knows his friend called to tell him that somebody actually broke into the house on his wedding day. But thank god they did not lose anything. Maybe the thief (I shall call him thief cos he's not daring, trying to do something bad in the dark) saw him when he entered in the house through backdoor and back off cos of fear. Wooden stick and brick were found at yard.

LH was telling me that he was not aware of the break in at all but he thought both him and his friend were lucky. His friend did not suffer monetary losses while he also met some petty thief thus he's untouched. It's believed that the thief was our "dearest friendly friend". He cannot imagine what would happen if he's an Indonesian or the "black".

Now then I know house got spotted on wedding day.... I thought only the ang paos during banquet.
