Remember, this is a Justgrab job, but she insisted me to unfold the last seats. “Nanti saya bayar extra ye,” she said. With hesitation and low heart, I followed her order. I kept thinking “how much extra” she’s willing to pay? Asking upfront on the fare is not nice and sensitive. So I just kept quite all the way.

I asked the guy whether they’re Muslim, and they said yes. “but these songs are English,” he said and looked at me. At the dropoff, after unloading all the baggages, when he asked me the fare, I told him only rm116 including the toll. When the other chinese driver heard, he looked at me and gave a sign of rm117 with his fingers. But I told him it’s okay.
