Catch Me if You Can

Was supposed to go out for a supper cum slacking session on Friday night.
Xuguang booked out from camp at around 10 plus and called to ask me if there were any plans coming up.
Ivan, Sean and Mel were catching a late show at 12.20am so I told Xuguang to spend some time at home first. They were watching 'Ghost Train' and Ivan told me that he would call either me or Xuguang as soon as the show had finished.
We would then meet up for a supper or so.
To be spending a Friday night at home alone is such a waste especially when you just booked out from camp after so many days of rotting inside. (This would be from Xuguang's point of view.)
Both I and Xuguang were so determined to go and meet up with the rest of them.
He even said that he could probably drive his dad's car down and we might end up eating at Bedok 85.

But in the mean time, we could only wait. I was surfing the net and watching TV at the same time. I saw Xuguang on Msn and I started a conversation which consisted of merely 3 lines.

'I scared that I am too tired that I might fall asleep leh..'
'If that's the case, then u all go ahead without me lor..'

'FUCK YOU!'
He replied.

Obviously what Xuguang meant was that he thought I wanted to put him aeroplane and that I was supposed to keep myself awake by all means.
I was actually kidding with him.
I wanted to go out so badly because it was becoming boring for me at home.
I didn't know he would sound so serious.

I managed to keep myself awake for some time but was feeling abit sleepy already.
I laid down on my bed to rest and placed both of my handphones right beside my pillow. I took a little nap knewing that I would get up immediately if Ivan were to call me.

Finally, Ivan called.
I picked up the phone and was struggling to sit up straight. Even though my body was still half asleep, my mind was fully conscious. I could understand and respond clearly to Ivan. I asked him if he had called Xuguang already.

He said 'Yes'.
Ivan told me that he had called him before me.

Despite of being so Serious and Fierce earlier on...
Xuguang himself had already fallen asleep and not listening to his handphone at all.
So I went back to sleep too.

On Saturday, I met up with Xuguang and Leslie at Orchard.
Ivan and Rihao came to join us later that night.
We were thinking of a place to go and chill since there was no way for Ivan to enter a club in his shorts. The only place which I could think of that actually allows people to go in with bermudas would be Zouk. But we weren't in the mood for Zouk so we went to AlleyBar, which is near CentrePoint.
All of us got a drink each. Ivan couldn't really take alcohol so he's the only one getting a lime juice.
I wasn't very sure what Leslie had ordered but it was in a champagne glass.
A small triangular cone shaped glass.
The content was so little that one could easily finish the drink with a gulp.
A strawberry was in it too.
We finished our drinks, left the bar and were thinking of other places to go. I noticed that Leslie had became more touchy and started to have queer physical contacts on me. I was beginning to wonder if the small tiny glass of alcoholic drink had taken effect. Either that or he could be allergic to the vitamins and minerals present in the strawberry.
Rihao drove us to Marina Square, where we played some Arcade games after spending some time looking for an entrance into the Shopping Centre.
We finished our games and began walking back to the carpark.
Slowly, we took our pace.
Until Leslie suddenly shouted.

'Let's strip Liwei's bottom lah!!'

Only Xuguang was enthusiastic and started to team up with Leslie.
Ivan and Rihao were more mature like me so they didn't show any interest at all.
Xuguang and Leslie then starting running towards me and of course,
I ran as fast as I could away from them.
I not only ran.
I sprinted all the way, checking behind every second and seeing two madmen chasing me.
It was then at that moment that I confirmed Leslie was drunk.
Xuguang was just plain immature and deprived from childhood times.
My shoe nearly flew out and I slowed down because of that. I knew that if I kept going and leaving my shoe behind...
I would be in deeper shit if they got hold of it.
I stopped and shouted to them in a very defensive manner.
'Fuck lah! Don't Bo Liao leh...'
'Sibei Childish leh!'

If they still wanted to continue then I wouldn't hesitate to show some of the moves that I have learnt from Steven Seagal movies. (His moves are the easiest to learn, since it's just pushing people and showing a stern 'Don't mess with me look'.)
From that moment,
I also started saying Leslie was drunk. I kept telling him not to drink so much next time already.
Drink so little only, drunk liao. What the fuck sia.
Everyone went into the vehicle and we ended up at East Coast MacDonalds.
Leslie and Rihao went for a game of billiard while the rest of us got some drinks and slacked.
They finished their game and Rihao came over first. When I saw Rihao alone and Leslie was nowhere to be seen, I told all of them that there might be a possibility of what could happen.

Leslie had KO'ed and lying unconsciously on his vomit somewhere.

He came from the toilet to join us soon after.
After some time it was time to go home.
But I still couldn't stop saying how drunk Leslie was.
I, Ivan and Xuguang shared a cab home and Rihao drove Leslie back.
Before we left, I told Rihao to take good care of him. I told him to get ready a plastic bag just in case he needed to puke.

Leslie isn't the kind who can drink.
Neither is he the type who will go crazy after consuming such a small glass of alcoholic drink.
I suspect it's the strawberry that was causing him to go bonkers.
Thank God he didn't order a basket of strawberries you know.
I might be running all the way back home from Marina Square instead of just for awhile.
