Who Do You Think You Are
My head is still pounding from yesterday's ordeal. Running around KL Sentral and KLIA with 3" heel stilleto was not my cup of tea. I should wear something comfortable instead but my mission yesterday was to impress. And I guess I did well in that department.

I reached JB at about 8.30 am and on my way out, I was greeted by a man. "Cik Kathy, I presumed?". I was not expecting anybody to pick me up. "Yes, I'm Kathy and you are?". "I'm Arman, Dato's personal aide. You have a meeting with him at 10.00 am, right?". Ahah! so Dato' was the one sending him then. "Oh I see. If that's the case, shall we go now?". "Ready as you are." I give myself a once over at my reflection.

I was scheduled for a meeting with a prospect client. Since he's a big shot in JB so the bosses in my company wanted me to meet up with the prospect. I was always tasked on important clientele which normally summed up to be Datoks and Datins. I guess I am good at apple polishing and clinching the business. Come to think of it, I think I'm successful so far.

"Is this you first time meeting Dato', Cik Kathy?" Arman asked. "No, this is my second. I've met him when he came to our office last month." I smiled. In fact, it was pure chance meeting Dato' that day. I was supposed to meet another client at their office. As I was fumbling with my handbag, trying to find the car keys, I nearly knocked him, the Dato' himself. He was coming out of the lift. I apologised profusely for my carelessness of which he just smiled. Well, the next thing I know, the bosses told me that Dato' wanted me to handle the project. And here I am.
