I sauntered around Arrival Hall 2. Occasionally, I looked through the glass panels, giving people the impression that I was waiting for someone. The red leather handbag an elderly lady was holding did not escape my attention. My eyes darted hither and thither, as I looked around. Making sure that the coast was clear, I fastened my pace as I walked towards the elderly lady. As swift as wind, I grabbed her handbag and ran away like a bolt of lightening. I ran and ran and ran, the old lady shouting in Hokkien behind.
Suddenly, I felt someone pounce on me and twisted my arm. Looking back to see who was it, I was shock to see someone I did not know. That guy was not suppose to pounce on me, I do not even know who he is! It was suppose to be some guy who played the good guy. It was in the script. I was suppose to run and the “good guy” would pounce on me.
“Hey! Let go of him. There is a shoot going on here. He is not a snatch thief! Sorry, but we still have a scene to shoot so let go of him now.” said Mike, the assistant, as he ran towards the man and I.
“You mean, there…is a shoot going on here? He is not a snatch thief? But, but…” the man asked, his voice trailing off. His face turned beetroot with embarrassment. By now, a small crowd had formed and the director and actors were running over. People were looking and pointing at him. The director started explaining things to the man while I massaged arm. It was so painful!
After apologizing to the cast, the man left hurriedly and we went back to shoot the scene again. I checked that my clothes were not crumpled and everything was in place when we got back.
“Scene three, take two and action!” shouted the director. Getting the cue, I sauntered into Arrival Hall 2 and looked through the glass panels occasionally…
Finally, after two long hours, we finished all the scenes in the airport. To celebrate, the director treated us to drinks. I had a wonderful day that day.
What an unforgettable day for me!
