We're back in Malacca again to visit my grandmum. So it's the normal thing we have to do every time we go to the hospital.

Buy coffee for the adults.

My grandmum was hospitalized in Mahkota Medical Centre, so that means Mahkota Parade is just a few- minutes walk away from the hospital, so the adults have been indulging in coffee whenever they are doing their "rounds" to take care of my grandmum in the hospital.

So whenever they asked us to buy coffee, my younger cousins would be begging for us to buy sweets and junk food for them.

On the side note, my eldest aunt, Aunt Lai Foong from the United States came to Malacca to visit my grandmum too. She told me that Yu(my eldest Korean cousin) was 5"4".

5"4". That means he is taller than me already! He used to be shorter than all of us. Oh my gosh, I'm so short.

Ok, back to this. Though, this time around, the adults didn't ask us to buy coffee as they already had their coffee earlier on. Instead, Aunt Lai Foong asked us to get a adapter for her Blackberry.

So, as usual, the younger ones will be begging for their Ribena sweets and Hundred Pluses..My aunt gave us RM 100.

Only the older cousins were allowed to go to Mahkota Parade, so Rin, Fook Keong, Nadiah, my sis and I went.

We bought the sweets. Apparently the shop selling electronic devices was closed, so we went to Dataran Pahlawan instead, the shopping complex next to MP.

Too bad, all the electronic shops were closed already.

So we ran back to MP again. Fook Keong suggested that we try the store next to Giant at the basement. Fortunately for us, it was still opened, and they sold the adapter.

After we bought the adapter, we decided to go buy drinks for everyone since we were all dying for a drink. Off to Giant we go.

Hundred Plus..F&N Mango with Nata de Coco..Ribena...We paid after we have chosen our drinks.

The cashier calculated the total price. It was RM 12. Rin took out RM 22. I guess she didn't notice that the two pieces of RM 10 were stacked together. I didn't notice it either. She gave all the money to the cashier. The cashier put the money into the cash box without even counting it.

By then, Rin calculated the remainder money and suddenly said that a RM 10 note was missing. She must have given the cashier an extra RM 10. FK suddenly said that he saw her giving two RM 10 notes to the cashier. We were just leaving the counter, so Rin asked the cashier whether she gave her RM 22 instead of RM 12. The cashier denied it.

We left reluctantly. However, Rin was still not assured and calculated the money again. A RM 10 was indeed missing. We took out all the previous bills we collected that night and went back to the counter again. We tried to ask for the RM 10. The cashier ignored us and told Rin that she was very busy. None of us budged from the counter. We didn't want to leave unless she gave us the money.

Rin showed her all the bills but the cashier didn't even want to look at it. She insisted that Rin never gave her an extra RM 10. By then, a crowd had gather around us. Some people even offered to look at the bills. They tried to persuade the cashier to believe us but it was no use. She even reprimanded us for being "money- hungry".

Rin was at the verge of tears. The cashier said that she will not return the money. Did she think that she could bully us because we were still kids? But there was no point in arguing further so we left the counter.

Well, I guess we learnt a lesson to be more observant next time.
