Adventure of SuperDaniel: The Story Part II

We went for a drink afterwards to replenish all the fluids that we lost doing the walk in the zoo..hehe.. Mind you, I and Daniel had 3 glasses and Nisa had 2. Haus sangat la tu..

By Maghrib, Nisa offered to send us straight to KL Sentral. You're the best, babe! We reached KL Sentral at about 8pm. And boy! It was packed!! When we were about to walk into the commuter station, I heard the announcement saying that the train to Port Klang would be delayed for about 30 minutes. So, I thought of strolling around first. Then, suddenly another announcement came saying that the train would be arriving in another 5 minutes. Main-main kah? So, we rushed downstairs to the platform. Lucky the elevator was working fine.

But the sight that greeted us on the platform was not fine at all! It was filled to the brim! I suspected that the earlier trains were delayed, resulting in people flooding the platform. There was no way that we could board the train. When the first train arrived, a police even forbid us to join in the crowd for fear of our safety. So we passed.

But there were still hundreds of people left at the station after the first train left. The policeman was still standing next to us. Rasa selamat sikit..hihi.. Then, I saw 2 matured ladies talking to a KTM officer. Looked like they knew each other. I also saw them looking at us while they were chatting.

Then we heard the announcement that another train was coming. The officer asked the policeman to escort us to board this train. "Yahoo!" I shouted to myself. Alhamdulillah. But when the train was really approaching the station, suddenly the policeman disappeared because he was supervising the other train which was moving out to Seremban.

The officer then called out to me to follow him. The 2 ladies also escorted us. The officer asked the crowd to make way for us and asked us to stand in a place which was supposed to be where the door would be at when the train stopped. He also called another mother with her baby in her sling baby carrier. Alhamdulillah.

But alas! The train was the other type! Not the dual-door type. It was the single door at the end of the cabin type. So, we were at the wrong spot! Hahah! The crowd was already pushing and pulling at each other towards the small door. The 2 ladies dragged us to go near the officer whom was waiting at the door but failed to content the wild crowd.

The train was nearly filled already and then suddenly the officer blew his whistle and finally managed to stop the crowd. "Bagi baby lalu! Bagi baby masuk dulu!" The crown parted and we were ushered in with the 2 ladies in tow. Alhamdulillah. People inside the train also helped to pull in the stroller. Daniel freaked out because of the huge crowd inside the train, so he refused to let go of my hand.

When the train was about to move, one of the 2 kind ladies exclaimed "Alamak! Handphone I! Handphone I hilang!" Dah kecoh satu cabin. We tried dialing the phone but it was already switched off. Cepat betul dorang ni buat kerja. It was a matter of a few minutes only and it was gone. I pun cuak jugak takut I pun kena pickpocket, tapi tak dapat nak check sebab Daniel didn't want to let go of my hand and I couldn't move because of the crowd.

The KTM officer held the train and within seconds, a policeman appeared. The policeman summoned a brother standing behind the lady with a backpack. "Abang, keluar bang!" The guy looked shocked, but he obliged. Kantoi or not, I didn't know, because immediately after the guy stepped out of the train, the train moved away from the station. Drama habis! I heard the other train which was scheduled to Sentul was asked to make a turn back to Port Klang to cater for the rest of the crowd in the station.

When we finally arrived at our stop, it was about 9.30pm already. Alhamdulillah my stuffs were all intact. When I thought the action was over, I was stumped again. The train still stopped at the other side of the station! Meaning I still had to climb up the overhead crossing! Aiyoh! And nobody was in sight to help. Adui la! I tried to wave to a pakcik KTM staff on the other side of the railway tracks and asked whether anybody could help me with the stroller? He practically saw through me! Alamak..Dah la malam. So, again, no choice, I had to unstrap baby Daniel and began the slow climb up.

Suddenly, a young man wearing JTR uniform (must be from one of those IKBN or such) asked me "Kak, nak saya tolong ke?" Alhamdulillah. Allah permudahkan semua urusan hari ni. Thanks dik. Adik memang best! Semoga grad nanti dapat kerja best-best ya dik? Amiin...

The pakcik helped me to carry down the stroller for the last few steps going outside of the station. He was a bit crippled. Patutla tak dapat nak tolong. Anyway, thanks la Pakcik for your help. Allah je yang membalasnya.

Sampai rumah, terus mandi manda. And then, I caught my flu..Woohoo!

So, there you go! Adventure tak?? hehehe...
