Ended with the usual Tuesday Aerial Yoga Class. I was on my way home after filing up some petrol. I was from Bandar Puteri Puchong heading home on the Kesas highway. It seems to be like normal Tuesdays or not.
9:25pm I was suddenly hit by a strong force at the back of my car which came with a loud noise and great impact. My nose / forehead hit the steering wheels and my spectacles flew behind making me blind. I was like WTF happened??? Hit the brakes!!! Hit the brakes!!! I told myself. I stopped in the middle lane of the Kesas Highway km 43.1
My nose was bleeding (due to the impact), I was blind and I can't get my car door to open! Where's my damn spectacles??? I blindlessly searched the floor and the passenger seat to no avail. Calm down Vai Yoong, calm down. I told myself. Call Dad. Tell him to come get me. I'm scared.
I called my Dad who was on his way home after yumcha from badminton. Told him where I was and managed to send him my location via WhatsApp. Then a few Indian guys and Malay guys came to me. I told them I can't open my door and asked them to help me find my spectacles. I'm absolutely vulnerable without them. They asked me to move my car to the side but I can't without my spectacles. I got down from the passenger side of the car and went to see the damage.
I couldn't believe the damage! Wow!
I went behind the passenger seat to get my things (mostly try to find my spectacles again and I finally found it). I was approached by a few Indian callmen but I said my dad is arriving soon. And I was still bleeding. One of the guys said: Kakak, I takut you lemas. Luckily around the same time my dad arrived and took me to the side and into his car so I could rest. My dad then took care of everything for me. Getting the Kesas Ronda to move my car to the side, fending off the numerous callmens, getting pictures of my car and the Honda City that struck me, arranging for a tow truck, sending me to the traffic police station, arrange for my car to be dropped at the workshop, sent me to the doctors and sending me home.
I was a mess myself with my soaked yoga towel in blood, swollen nose and in a startled state.
By the time we got home it was almost 2am. I went to sleep at 4am after cleaning up. What a long night...so tired!
The next day I started to feel the whiplash due to the incident. The bruises and aches surfaced. My nose was swollen like Jackie Chan's nose, I have blue black around my eye area and my neck feels sore.
With all that, I'm grateful to be alive because the situation could be way more worse. I could possibly not be around anymore. Luckily there was no petrol leakage from the car, no cars further banged my car while being stationary in the middle of the highway, no one robbed me while I'm in that state and other way worse scenarios. I'm counting my blessings and thankful that I'm still okay.
