Poor behaviour

I went to the movies yesterday, watching Just Follow Law. A humourous show, I must say, and I enjoyed Fann's goofy expressions. Hahah.

The night didnt end on a high note though. I got into a small arguement with the strangers sitting next to me.

The show had ended and it was almost 11:30pm. Everyone was beginning to file out of the theatre while the two person sitting to my left was still sitting. My friend gestured me to get going, but I explained that the two were not budging yet.

I guess they were waiting to see if there's any interesting parts after the scrolling credits but I wasnt that eager. I just want to get out and dash in the direction of the toilet, cos it is never my habit to trouble fellow movie-goers to tuck their legs in for me.

So we waited for a while, and everyone to my right was already looking at the two of them, wondering how come they hadnt move. (I was at vivo, and the stairs are down the two sides, with around 30 seats in the entire row. I was at seat 6.)

You might already know how I am used to be taking the lead so that things get done, and hence in this scenario, after waiting for like 1 whole embarrassing minute (the two were pretending the rest of us arent there I think), I stood up and motioned my friend.

I stood still for a couple of second, cos I seem to have a small case of nightblindness. I spoke "Excuse me" and then began to walk.

I walked past seat 5, and then started to walk by seat 4. But should luck have it, I stepped on her leg with my heels.

OUCH!

I immediately stopped, and everyone behind me almost crashed into me. I quickly apologised and stopped for a moment to see if she was ok.

She, an auntie of almost 50 years old, started to complain that it hurts.

I apologised again, and the woman beside her, supposedly her daughter, around 30 years old or so, started to alternate between showing concern to the older woman, and shooting deadly stares at me.

Then the older woman started to raise her leg and started rubbing it, and I was already turning red. I apologised again and explained I didnt see her leg (that was sticking out) and hence the accident.

She wasnt going to let me off, and everyone behind me was stuck in line. She started whining on how much it hurts and question why had I step on her feet.

Upon then, my embarrassment turned quickly into rage. I mean hallo! I had already apologised repeatedly, and it was totally unintentional, can she give me a break?

I guessed my irritation started to show on my face, and the duo was making more noise than ever, as though wanting me to make some sort of compensation.

"Eh! I already said I am sorry, what do you want?" I snapped.

My friend apparently heard me loud and clear, and he began to push me on, trying to get me to flee the scene.

The duo continued to mumble some unintelligent lines, and I returned "Show over already still sit there FOR WHAT!"

(In times like such, my level of english language always dropped to a new low.)

With my friend ushering me out, I was quickly pushed out of view of the duo, and I started to calm down a little. He asked me what had actually happened, and I complained again that I've already said excuse me, and it is not as if she didnt see us all standing up. She can sit there and wait if she want, but at least tuck her legs in what.

In retrospect, I think the duo were quite fortunate. If I was still within their hearing range, I will definately add on another few lines after my "Show over already still sit there FOR WHAT (deadpanned with emphasis), such as "Waiting to pick up the leftover popcorns to bring home issit?" or "Waiting to sweep the theatre?"

I was so irritated after that I didnt want to go anywhere else already. I cant believe the two of them are so petty. I already apologised (with genuine frown of concern written all over my face) initially but they are so unforgiving.

I know it hurts, but who asked them to sit there even after the show is over, and who asked her not to tuck her leg in?

Now all I can say is "Orh bi!"
