Early this morning I received a Whatsapp message from a student of mine.
Very early in the morning.
Like 5.18am early.
Which surprised me a bit. And worried me. Because if you received text messages or calls at odd hours it can mean several things:
1-Someone died.
2-Someone is in the hospital.
3-The message sender is a stalker.
Anyway I read the message and found myself rubbing my eyes to read it again clearly.
It read: "Bonjour madame. I think I left my penis in your office last week."
My office, by the way, is filled with student assignments yang berbagai-bagai at the moment. Each class has a different project. So now I have scale models of French monuments, fun facts posters about France, 2016 calendars (You want one? I got lots), brochures, mini magazines on France...
...but a penis? I would have noticed it right away. Trust me.
A few minutes later the student texted me again: "Madame I'm soooo sorry. Pen madame pen!"
I was about to reply when another text came in: "Itu la madame cakap melayu senang kan?"
Then another text message, the last one: "Eh tapi pen dalam BM dengan BI sama je ek?"
So I tried to get back to sleep. But couldn't. Because Momoi was already on the bed meowing at my face.
Oh well.
