Of A Stalker - PART I

As of July 8, I have a new stalker. Don't know if I could rate the person a stalker, really, for, to be a stalker one would have to have a certain character. I mean, please , give some grace to the profession *grin*.

The first sms I received the night where there a football match to determine th 3rd place for the World Cup 2006. It went something like "had your number in my phone, few missed calls, would like explanation. do you mind introducing yourself?" And since I am VERY CERTAIN that I don't do things like that, I just replied "Who are you? I don't even know you." And for the record, at that moment I am slightly irritated already.

It went on and on. I entertained his messages with one motive: to know who on earth gave him my number or how in the world did he get my number. RESULTS: I found out that he actually STOLE my number from the particulars that Jobstreet.Com sent to his company. Maybe I did apply for a position in his company via Jobstreet some time in the past. Also, he is MARRIED with two kids, and kononnya having MARITAL PROBLEMS. And I obtained all this info overnight.

And the next day and days after that, he called me so many many times per day, for someone who just knew a person via sms. No, not 3-4 times a day.. almost 10. I know him not even a week, and hey I do not like him. Kalau I suka lain cerita, tak mau hang up pun tak kisah, but of course that is not possible, because people have things to do. And please, I did not take every call he made. I do not like him, and I have been doing something. Routine work, obviously, and caring for Baby Anis (Nissy). Adalah sekali dua I layan, depending on mood. There are a few things about him that I really cannot stand, that is why I am on NO, NO, NO. I will elaborate on this later in this post.

July 12 was when I started to ignore him totally. Why? Read the following messages. I still have it in my cellphone because I haven't got the time to delete it. I will after this. Bear in mind that all morning on July 12, nobody got to call me, just this jerk. Again, for the record, sepanjang yang I masih angkat phone calls from him, I gave him the same treatment like anyone else.. agaknya kerana itu dia menyangka he can step on my head and open a spice factory, kot..

July 12, 2006 14:06 : why tak jawap phone...ade boyfriend kat sebelah ke? hp kalau tak nak cakap... buang dalam TONG SAMPAH!! at least sms la balik bagitau i'm in a middle of having something with my bf.

July 12, 2006 15:08 : hp u rosak ke? You beli kat mana hp? kat pasar malam kajang ke?... kejap2 kejap rosak... sampai tak leh angkat phone or call... ha! ha! ha! ha! ada warranty lagi ke tak???

July 12, 2006 18:13 : aaaaiik merajuk.... I am sorry if i hurt you Suraya... betul ke i panggil you suraya or you want me to call you Sura or Raya... i think Raya IS OK... bunyi pun cam ceria je !! he! he! he!

July 12, 2006 22:05 : why x angkat phone... r u mad at me? had super supreme@ warta tadi.. call call u tak angkat.

July 12, 2006 22:10 : angkat la phone.

July 13, 2006 00:34 : i dah mintak maaf.. you maafkan tak? at least you angkatlah phone, talk to me... dah penat i dial up your number.. i am so sorry if it hurts you. i am SORRY..

As of July 12, I did not respond to him at all. One day, he did not call at all, and I thought the 'suwey' was finally over. Later that night I found a missed call from an unidentified number. Thinking it was one of my KL friends, I sent a message asking 'who is this?' The next day, so earrrly in the morning he sent sms to me explaining that his phone was out of battery all day the day before so he called me using his friends's mobile. GOSH, did he REALLY expec me to buy that???? Well then thank youuuu thank you kindly for letting me know beforehand that that's your friend's number.. made my job easy. I continued to ignore him entirely after that.

However on July 20, after he sent nearly 5 similar sms, asking me whether I merajuk and all... I finally reached my limit. Impressive, really considering my blood is actually made of mercury - how I can stay silent this long, I'll never know. At the afternoon of July 20, I send him this : I am going to say this only once. I am not interested at all to be your friend whatsoever so please stop all the phone calls, sms etc. that was at 17:03.

After midnight at 01:32 July 21, I received a lengthy sms from this stalker. What I can understand is, he must have told his friend about my sms earlier, and the sms forwarded to me was a reply from his friend. I am pretty sure about this as there was an email add at the end of the sms. Probably the guy was sending it from yahoo to his mobile. This is it:

"Sorry lambat reply wwf.. had a site visit at Kampar this eve.. now aku kat R&R Tanjung Malim.. penat n macam2...imagine cable boleh tersilap tanam kat site.. tu yg aku temper tak habis tadi, after this kena korek balik.Budak civil structure conclude boleh save cost... kau tahu la aku benda2 cam ni aku tak boleh compromises... OK.. Pasal minah tu eelehhh not interested pulak, pegi mampus la! that day masa tengok bola sibuk sangat nak cakap dengan aku...! told u b4 minah cam ni is so unpredictable. you can pick them up everywhere n anywhere down d street.... Like wat you were telling me, cakap kena kuat2, nak call prepaid habis n bla bla bla... Benda2 ni semua nonsense! if u want me to introduce my engineer or my admin pun aku boleh kenalkan...setakat minah mentah macam ni nak call pun prepaid memanjang habis. Bila kau call dia kata kau pondan... i had a feeling minah cam ni dia org suka control... if me, ok la tak interested aku tak rugi apa2.. even it will encourage your spending now n in d future, wwf. i am wondering how did u get to know minah ni? just tell her OK la if she wants to make a full stop. Not a big deal! Next week, we meet up at SB Bangsar Village.kalau boleh bawak Suhaili sekali, ada project infra kat Kelang.. ok Chow! mart.book@yahoo.ca

In reply to this, I send 5 sms in a row to him. I know I sepatutnya ignore him. But this time I will take the pleasure to spell it out to him what I have been concealing in my mind. Since dia tak faham faham kalau orang tak layan tu, means tak berminat, or mungkin dia buat tak faham, thinking that I maybe jual mahal to him, because he thinks he is so adorable (ptuih). I will comment on his sms and on him at the PART II of this post. Save the best for later hehehe. Please read my reply:

1) Haha. Sour Grapes.

2) Also, if you really have marital problems and are seeking for female-shoulder-to-cry-on, at least have the grace to look at the mirror, and having done that, please choose carefully hehehe. Reasons: if you examine yourself properly, you would notice that you are a freak and that no self-respecting lady would ever want to have anything to do with you.

3) Reason number two: careful in choosing girls, because again, no self-respecting lady would entertain the prospect of calling a freak, who is not only prsistent but irritating too. Plus, no self-respecting lady would respond to inducement by desperados who think they can smoothly deceive ladies to call them and listen to their sad pathetic stories. Cheap desperados to be exact, for they can't even afford the expenses of infidelity.

4) Having said all that, please have some integrity lah. If a lady does not favor your company, accept it and face it like a man. There's no need to harass or criticize the lady, makes it all the more amusing. And by the way, I really do not blame your wife for not finding her life with you pleasant. Please accept my sincere thought.

5) Good Luck in your conquest to find some sympathetic girl. Really, you need the luck.

Alhamdulillah, after that and until now I heard nothing from him. Don't know if I should be aware of the calm before the storm. But tak kisahlah, yang penting I memang tak berkenankan perangai sebegitu. Next : My Overall Comment. Stay tuned hehehe.
