She Should Not Live Like That, Poor Old Lady.

Since there's nothing to eat at home already, so we (YJ's mom, his sister and I) went sundries shopping this afternoon at Jaya Jusco.

It just a normal sundries shopping at first, we walked around and took whatever necessary stuffs and foods. After we took everything necessary, we put our trolley at the closed cashier counter as we would like to have our dinner inside the Jusco's food court before we leaving.


After having dinner, we went back to our trolley location as we are going to pay. But, our trolley is missing. We looked around in the Jusco and it's really disappear.

We asked a security guard there and hope that he saw our trolley. He didn't saw our trolley, but he told us that our trolley might be taken by an old lady who always appear there and normally she'll put the stuffs back to the original places if she sees those trolleys are there.

We just wondered whether the security guard is telling us the truth or not... Suddenly, it happened just in front of us. The old lady is taking a basket of stuffs from a cashier counter, and putting all the stuffs to the original places. Wow, we really shocked!


She puts the things back to the places one by one. And, she seems so familiar with those things location. Some people is looking for their missing trolleys, and we are part of them... (",)

The old lady is so "efficient" as she has already put all our stuffs and foods back in just few minutes. So, we have to re-shop to get back those things.

Is she so lonely? Is she so free until nothing to do, but "helping" Jusco to "clear" people's trolleys? We just feel that she is so pity and wonder why she does that? She doesn't has family member? No one taking care of her? Why an old lady in her age who should just relax and plays with grandchildren at home doing this kind of thing? Why...?

Poor old lady, will we become like her one day? We hope this won't happen to anyone...

Mmmm.. this woman sounds like she has that Compulsive Disorder syndrome. I think it is something she does quite on the reflex... like some people steal, not because they need the items stolen.. but they are kleptomaniacs.. this old lady has this compulsion for order and neatness hahaha.. my 2sen
