Elepo Encounter

Exception Clause: The following writing may include information about a certain individual which is entirely not true!

I usually tell myself that I shouldn’t judge a person without getting to know them first. But I guess that doesnt work with everyone.

There were 2 girls I had met recently. You know, the kind of people that you just hi and bye, without paying them much attention. For the sake of keeping their identity a mystery, lets name them M and elepo(Thanks Pekster and  Diplodo for the nickname).  Whenever I meet them separately, both ladies are, respectively, wonderful. They are great to chat with and always a good laugh

But put them together, and they remind me that the devil may just have his minions around us.

An unexpected encounter with the both of them (me totally unprepared for the onslaught) and I had the fortune of getting my actions analysed and concluded in the most distressing way imaginable

It started out with the Management’s decision to hold a karaoke session in Mid valley last week. I decided to join in and being more of the kind person who likes to strut her monkey moves on the dance floor instead of croaking my lungs out, I took on the stage and was doing the moonwalk(ok, it was actually the cha cha) with a couple of the other girls who decided to let loose their hair. The M and elepo were both present and it was, in fact, to their bellowing that we were dancing.

Fast forward a couple of days later, and I bump into the devil duo at the office. Elepo asked me if I was available for squash the next day, and looking at them looking all innocent, I decided to agree to have a few rounds with her. As I was walking away, elepo asks me if we could be Facebook friends. Being a polite lady, I was thinking of the best possible way to say no to someone I barely know. But before I reply, elepo decided we do not need to FB friends and proceeded to tell me about the many guys that she has on the FB, mostly people she just has a night’s stand with. I wasn’t sure if she was serious or joking, but I give her the benefit of doubt that it was just a joke.

Trying to get away the second time, elepo decided to stop me again and proceeded to ask me how often do I club. When I told her the truth, she went on to say how great I was on the dance floor at the karaoke(I know right?) and said it looked like I frequently club. And that people who frequently club, also frequently sleep around.

Huh?

When I said I do neither, devils wondered if I was married(No), or in a serious relationship(also a no) and thought that since I am in neither, then I must be sleeping with someone or other. And when even that came out negative, elepo decided to have a good look at my arse..and apparently, according to my cute little bottom, I do have multiple partners!

Huh?

Then the duo decided that since I am not married, I just must be seeing somebody(at least for a night ) since I apparently looked dressed up. And no one wears make up, unless they are going on date! Then they proceeded to ask me my age. I joked and told them I was in my 20s and that hurtled them into a discussion between themselves that I should probably change my face products, or my eyeliner or my lipstick color, as apparently, all of the above makes me look MUCH older than my actual age.

Umm..

Might I add that almost every sentence coming from elepo was laced  with the 4 letter word. But I was finally able to walk away, though in dismay at having to discover myself an old, haggard, and a happy slut.

I must say, I am glad to say that I do not have friends who have the social skills and grace as the elepo. It is having these sort of encounters that I realize just how normal, thoughtful, graceful, and polite my friends are.

P.S Thanks to the pika for reminding me this would make a good story, To Pekster for showing me just how gangster my friend is ,and to Diplodocus for sharing my experience for other’s benefit
