Miserable and unexpected would be the exact words to describe last Tuesday, it all happened in a snap of finger. My friends and I had decided to go for window shopping in KL. We left Unisel early in the morning to avoid traffic in KL. Since I needed to withdraw money from the ATM machine, Anissa dropped me in Batang Berjuntai town nearby a RHB bank. I went alone to withdraw the money. Deep down in my heart I could sense something is wrong but I shrugged the thought of it.  As soon as I took some steps out from the bank, out of nowhere came two guys in a motorbike and snatched my purse. Although I was in shocked, I did not let go of my purse. As a result, I was dragged on the road. I was in tremendous pain and still reluctant to let go off my purse. Then I heard my friend screams asking me to let go of my purse. Only then I let go of my purse. Blood streaming down from my elbow and unconsciously, my tears was streaming down as well. My friends brought me to the nearby clinic. Luckily I wasn’t in a serious condition. Then my friends and I went to make a police report.  Alas, there was a huge commotion in the police station. Two brothers and few others were also arguing. The Batang Berjuntai police station was very chaotic. After waiting around 15 minutes, the policemen feeling very annoyed took my statement and said that he could not give me any guarantee that my purse would be found. I said that I understand the circumstances as well and said thank you and left. I knew well that it would be difficult to find the thieves as no one actually saw their faces. I could only wish for the best. Deep down in my heart I thought to myself that last Tuesday was the worst day I ever had.
