Departure Lounge @ Solaris Mont Kiara

One Merry Monday (far away from the manic ones), JackJack decided to kick away the shackles of his dog-eat-dog world and satiate the ever-growing thirst of wanderlust. Daunting as it may seem, he was absolutely determined to follow his heart to whichever new land it may lead him.

Much honks and middle fingers later, his invisible button nose took charge when the heart faltered at the sight of the krazee traffic (and deranged drivers) in the land of Kay El.

After a few twists and turns down the winding lanes with nose's deft manoeuvres, heart felt peace.

"Lub dub. Is that departure lounge I see? We've reached the terminal, by golly."

"Atishoo0!" The nose gave a teeny weeny sneeze, fumbling in its excitement.

Heart gave a little jump and prodded nose:

"Systols to the diastols, we should be on the right track!"

"Reckon the planes swooping down soon?" Heart palpitated as they swung into the nearest seats by the windows.

"I see steaming mugs of coffee but ain't no planes on the runway yet."




"Patience, heart. Why don't you get something to eat so Oscar stays in his trash can?"

"Yeah... you should get something warm to drive those sniffles away too. They're disgusting."



"Nobody tells me what to do , twerp. I'm gonna Do-It-My-Way!"

"Oh yeah, ballsy? I gonna Do-It-My-Way too! And my Do-It-My-Way is gonna be better than yours!"

"Bring it on! I've got my hash brown, toadstools, baked beans, bread, grilled tomato, scrambled eggs, turkey ham and turkey bacon for only RM 12.90." Nose sneered snottily.




"Beat my whopping chicken sausages, shrooms, baked beans, bread, scrambled eggs, soft boiled eggs, turkey ham and turkey bacon!! Bet you can't trump that!" Heart pumped furiously.




Ignoring the stares and hushed whispers of passers-by, the two continued to be engaged in their fight, completed with snarls and dripping venom. Adventure? That thought was totally awashed.

An eternity of food-slinging and gobbling laters, JackJack was stuffed to the brim, much thanks (or maybe not) to his squabbling nose and heart.





He drifted into deep slumber on that comfy armchair by the window sill, dreaming dreams of swooping planes and exotic coffee beans...
