Sh*t Happens

So I almost got rolled/jumped/mugged today...

3:01 pm - Chemistry

Miss Ng: "Oh wait. I was suppose to give you your dot-point booklet! ... Who wants to run and get it?"

hmm... 4 minutes till bell. Do I really need the dotpoint booklet? I've already got some on my comp back at home so I don't really need it. Can I really run there and back with 3 minutes till bell? ......................................................................................................................

Challenge accepted!

Bolted out, Money Jingling in my pocket, Over the garden, through the Hallway, over the silver seat, through the sport team, dodge the poles and....... the Door's locked.....................damn.

Engineering class's out early. Farewell to Mathew and Kelvin. Small talk to Kelvin playing about with that whip app. About to run back and money falls out of my pocket........damn.

Farewell to passing people, Running through Quad...A block..OH wait...gotta pay back Phillip thai....runs back. open door..see phillip and the bell rings............................................damn.

oh screw it I'll just leave it on the table, I'm sure collin will tell phillip it's his.....Running Running Running....momentarily walk and slowly get back into a jog.....and violently hit into a girl walking out of my downe's room....."OW!!!!"......................................................damn.

Returns to class. "... whoever wants the booklet come to the staff room with me..".....follow miss Ng to the staffroom...Gets a merit for being the first two to get it! yay!!. Head back, farewell to snoops and hug Osly...............although not returned....................................................damn.

hmmm Tell Kenna about drama plan now? or Studywiz?....Runs up stairs...looks around for her.... Knowing her she'd have left during lunch. Walk back down the stairs. Moment of farewell to Mr wilkins.."One day study, One day break"....Begins walking home with Jess....Pass by Donovan....Should I get a lift?................................................................naahh.

So I was walking through the park and Ahead of us I could see a row of Fobs and through our psychic link I could tell Jess notice them too. A fob was sunglasses was standing in the middle of the path, arms crossed. I noticed a group have Just walked past them...Mai..Steph..James and John so we should pass fine too. A Part of me sensed trouble but I was so sure that this shit ain't real, so we continued walking straight on until .."OI! Cuz, You got money bro?! Give me some money. And you're Phone? Give me your phone!".....................................................shit damn.

All I could think was "wow, wow wow, wait what...this shit ain't real...". Then they slowly surrounded me, closing the distance. They ignored Jess, thankfully. My mind still slow on grasping the situation. Am I really being Mugged? Why do I feel no adrenaline?...This shit ain't real. The pack began to encircle, 360. "Give me YOUR phone and WALLET! Give it to me!". I was slowly being backed up against the tree wall. The only opening gap was to my right, which was quickly fading. My instinct told me to take it quickly. So I turned at ran.......but a guy tripped me over and landed head first into the ground............................................LOL damn.

At that point I was expecting blows of punches and/or kicks. But I could hear Jess's cry "NOOO fuck Leave him Alone! he has nothing!" as she helped me get up on my feet. The sunglasses fob continued to taunt me. "DO you have money Bro?! Give me Your Wallet! Do you have a phone?!!!" The questions baffled me. Why must they ask, when they could have forcefully taken it from me already. So they don't really know if I am of any value. I forcefully said back "NO, I have nothing! Believe me I have nothing." .....................................................................Troll face.

I slowly began to back off....as a few of them began to disperse. This shit ain't real. He continued with more taunts and demands and I continued denying. I stared at his eyes as I recall scene in 'The Grey' where a group of wolves began encircling his camp and his advice was "Stare right back at them". Luckily I noticed someone behind him. Jeremy. Jeremy. Jeremy!.......I know Jeremy!......and I weakly called out his name................................."Jeremy!"......phew!

J: "OI BACK OFF! I KNOW HIM!...DUDE STOP I KNOW HIM. HIS MY FRIEND!"

The Fob turned around in confusion..."YOU know my cuz?! YOu know my Cuz?!"....."yeah..."
....Mind blank...... "Alright all good man" as he gives out his hand offering a handshake. I shook it but he grabbed on tightly. He held his grip and turned to continue talking to Jeremy. From my left I heard a soft whisper......................................................................................"Let go Huynh"

I let go of my grip and we slowly walked away ,unharmed. I could hear in the distant "They have a Future! Unlike you!.......................................................................SEE YA DANNY!"

It certainly took me awhile to apprehend what just happened. I couldn't stop giggling afterwards. Laughing at my stupidity and how naive I was....It seemed too......surreal....
I should've walked through with the group in the first place..........which then made me wonder.


What if... The door wasn't locked in the first place. I would've gotten the booklet already and left when the bell went.

What if... I Didn't stop to talk to kelvin or my money didn't fall out, or I didn't turn back around to pay Phillip and hit bump into that girl. All delayed me from returning earlier, delaying her from getting the books which in result I could've at least catch up with the Steph and stuff and walked through the park with them.

What if... I didn't went to find Kenna

What if... Mr wilkin didn't walk by and gave us a little farewell.

What if... I had chose to take a lift from Dono...

Series of pre-determined events or am I just plain overthinking it. This is certainly a ...splash in the face with water that wiped alway the magic pixie dust on my eyes....

When I fell there were easter eggs in my pocket as well which is now smooshed into my phone and earphones.

Fuck


Shit Happens
