what affair?
The weirdest thing happened to me today.
I was sitting in Melbourne Central food court having some lunch with my friends, when I noticed that my mobile had like 3 missed calls displayed on the screen all from the same number.
I guess I really expected the call to be from something like the Starlight Foundation where I signed up to do volunteer work or my boss calling from a different number. So I called back.
It was neither. A voice of a woman in her late 30s picked up and as soon as I said "...hello??" she started grilling me so fast my head was spinning. So our conversationl went something like this...
-
"...hello??"
"Hi. My name is Christine Butler and my husband's name is Stan Butler. I just want to know the truth. Now, are you having an affair with my husband?!"
"..uh...what are you talking abou-"
"You're sleeping with my husband aren't you?!"
"wait -what? No! I don't even know who your husband is!"
"OH STOP LYING. I WON'T JUST-"
"I'm not! what the hell? I have no idea what -"
"I JUST WANT TO KNOW THE TRUTH, YOU'RE HAVING AN AFFAIR WITH MY HUSBAND, AREN'T YOU?"
"Look! I'm 19! I'm an asian so I'm NOT having an affair with your husband okay?!"
-
I hung up after she started trying to cut me off again because I realised at that point that she had absolutely no intention of even considering believing me.
I looked up to the gobsmacked looks on my friend's faces.
Yeahh I don't even know why I mentioned the fact that I was asian. My friends freaking bagged the shit out of me for it later. Thinking back, it does sound pretty damn stupid but, I was so caught off guard in the the flurry of the moment. i guess I assumed that if I described myself that she would believe me more? Hahaha!!!
My fucking brain broke.
