I got a weird phone call from a number that I did not recognize asking me if I was Mr. Handsome and that he had a parcel for me.
“Mr. Handsome?”
“What? Who is this?”
“Saya ada parcel untuk kamu, tapi tak tau kamu punya tempat. Kamu Mr. Handsome ka?”
“Apa? Siapa handsome?”
“Reuben Handsome ka?”
“Ya, saya Reuben…kamu tau cari tempat ke?”
I gave him directions as I was expecting a parcel but I was still very puzzled why this Malay man was getting fresh with me.
The answer:
He didn’t even get my first name right
