[Sibu]
I'm stranded in Sibu for two days. I've missed school for two days (that's actually the only good outcome because I hadn't done my homework yet). Apparently while my mum drive home from Sibu back to Brunei after sending Allister to his school, our car engine suddenly heats up. I discovered that the fanbelt of the car had snapped and literally ripped to shreds, which causes the fan to stop turning which leads to the radiator heats up, causing an increase in temperature in the engine. To make things worse, we are 186km (approxiametly) from Sibu, and 80km to Bintulu. Fortunately my big brother Phil called the tow truck and the insurance money. So we are stranded one more night in Sibu. The car took a whole day to be repaired, which cost us one more night in Sibu again. Mu sister cannot afford another leave from work so shee took the airplane to Brunei so she can go to work.
What I'm worrying about is the accident that happened to mu buddies back home. From what I heard, Vinnie got involved in an accident during Raya Project 4 in the highway, and his passengers were Albert, Sharmin and Ian. Albert suffers from leg bone fracture which leads him to an operation. The others suffer minor outer skin damage, scratches and burn bruises. I wish I would be there to see the comotion and the panic. And to think of it, Vinnie texted me earlier that day if I wanna join him in the ride. 0_0. I got the news from Theodora while shopping in Sibu, 20-30 mins after the accident. The shock I get was so ebormous, I stayed stagnant for few seconds. I immediately called the twins. They said not to get too worried so I don't....
That incident might put away the trust for my batch of new drivers..
