the tale of ice lemon tea and the mean old lady

Had two hours break today (as math teacher was absent), so we decided to eat at this cafe that we always wanted to go to but always somehow forgot. There was a sign near the door stating that for students, we'd get

  • 10% discount for our meal,
  • FREE REFILLS for ice lemon tea,
  • no extra charge for additional rice or noodles.
And since i didnt bring much money today, i thought,

'Since its free refills anyway, why dont i share a drink with you (shereena)!'

so yeah. we shared the drink. after we finished the drink, i called for the guy (waiter dude) and asked if we could get refills. he said 'self service'. It wasnt like it was those coke stands or something where you couldnt move the stupid machine. It was just a normal container that you lifted up and poured. So i was pretty surprised. I guess its their strategy. Because how many people would leave their table to get refills in the middle of their meal?

Anyway, after i was done eating, i took the cup we were sharing and suat wei's cup to the counter to refill. There was this LADY (yes, the lady mentioned in the title) standing there. She was writing something on this notepad and mumbling.. something about no share no share. I just assumed she was talking to herself because she didnt even LOOK at me. so im like wtv lar... Shereena and i finished the drink really fast, so i went for a second refill.

The lady looked up at me and went

'NO SHARING DRINKS. CANNOT.'

So i went,
'oh... okaaay. i didnt know'
and proceeded to pick up the container thingy, cause i mean. I can still fill it for shereena right? She DID pay for the stupid drink.

She sorta placed her hand centimeters above the container and went 'SORRY.' (in the very rude way, thats why its in CAPS.) and i was like WTH!! super pissed can?!?! so i went back to my table with the empty cup feeling all URRRGHHHH!!! I mean, they didnt state that at the sign right? it wasnt
  • Free refills for ice lemon tea (no sharing)
it was
  • Free refills for ice lemon tea
SO I SERIOUSLY DONT GET WHAT HER PROBLEM IS LO.

We all got super fired up. and shereena said apparently the lady was staring at us before that as we were eating. Crazy much?? so, we plotted our revenge in the form of... us swapping cups with puiyee.. so she helped us filled our drink. and us all drinking lotsa ice lemon tea and refilling shit loadsa times.

She even had to refill teh container cause there wasnt enough

Could see she was damn pissed at us XD, she was like FUMIIING! she kept like walking past our table. POOR MEAN OLD LADY. AAWW. so not. and its weird because the OWNER didnt seem to mind at all. and im pretty sure that lady is just a worker there. retarded right?!?!

In the end, we were super super filled with fluids. but just for the heck of it, we filled the cups up one last time. and left it on the table untouched. XD damn mean, i know. BUT SHE WAS MEAN FIRST *sulks*

So we went to the counter to pay. The lady said 'RM17' (around there) and shereena and i were about to hand her our cash as the owner stepped in and took over the cashier instead. The lady walked away in a huff!! so we handed the owner the RM17.. and the owner says

'Oh its only RM15!! Theres 10% discount for students!!'

WTH.

THAT LADY TOTALLY TRIED TO CHEAT US CAN!?!

*rolls eyes*

slap her lah.
Slap her lah.
SLAP HER LAH.

Anyway. It was pretty funny, the whole thing. XD Watching her fume was just AWESOME! Never going back there again =.= The cabonara spagetti was disappointing anyway. Better to go to peppercorn. RM2.50 more expensive, but its much much nicer, and you get complementary garlic bread and the service is SOOO GREAT it blows your mind away.

:)

LOVE!
