Who's Nory?
Nory is my mum's indon maid. She's been with us for close to 2 years now. About this time last year, i sent Nory to the airport to go home after all the commotion she caused. She was adamant to go on a 2 week leave although her contract says she is not to take leave prior to completion of 2 years. After all her tantrums, being rude towards mum and dad, mum just could not tolerate it anymore. So, i made the arrangements to sent her home. Me and Abang Az sent her to KLIA on her first solo flight. I think my mum took her on a flight "balik kampung" from KLA once, and that was her first flight ever.
Despite our kind advise, you insist on taking all her cash with her. After converting her hard earned salary into rupiah, she carefully placed it in her sports shoes she was wearing and off she goes. Two weeks later, mum got a phone call asking to transmit some cash for her to buy a ticket to travel back to Malaysia. She said all her money was stolen by some muggers upon her arrival at the Jakarta airport. Her shoe gimmick apparently is too common for the experienced muggers.
We didnt send her any money because we could not be sure if the story is true...But it was, and by some miracle she did come back much to the whole family's surprise. Since then she's been doing well, no more tantrums, mum has less to complain about her and her cooking gets better every day.
Today, after work, i will be picking up Nory at the Shah Alam bus station. She's arriving from my hometown, and her flight back to Indon is tomorrow morning. It is supposed to be another 2 week break. Even though her contract is over, she promised she will be back, and we are keeping our fingers crossed. From friends and family experience, majority never come back.
And how is Nory carrying her cash this time???........In her undies, yup, you read it right. Mum has got her "security undies" for her going away present. I've never seen it but according to mum its a normal ladies undy, with a zipped pouch just like a "kangaroo's baby pouch". Nory plans to wear the security undies with her cash all zipped up (in notes of RM100 - quite thick i imagine), topped by her normal undies, topped by shorts, then jeans. Nory is a small thin figure....she's gonna look like an old lady wearing incontinence diapers tomorrow...wakaka.
I hope the security undies works for her, and for mum's sake i hope she returns to us on the 5th of March.

where did your mum get it? I must say this sounds so underground like smuggling something. heh heh
but tell you what, perhaps you can disburse the risk. Because there will be muggeres I think and if they were to ask for money and she said none, my my we do not want Nory to be stripped down to her undies eh? perhaps have some in the shoes, you know for bait.
hi lollies...she did put some in her purse, but not in her shoes this time. Mom got it at the local supermarket where she goes to buy her groceries..for RM1 only!!!!
woundedheart.........if i balik kampung, i can get one for you but tak tau lagi bile. Her pass will only expire in April, if she comes back in March then i'll start the renewal process
Nory? Nasib baik bukan Nora. :)
nekbat.......couldnt come up with anything better.:-)
