Last Tuesday I went back home as usual from office. I stood near the opposite door of the door I entered in Queenstown to give way for next passengers. Dover is a unique station and so the door just behind my back was opened. Somehow a part of my bag’s strap went out and the door was closed.
My immediate reaction was just to watch and then pretend nothing happened after an unsuccessful attempt to pull it. When the stations reach Clementi I tried again and it’s still not working, my bag was still trapped. So I became anxious but didn’t have any solution as we can’t speak to the driver.
I tried to go to the nearest communicator to find there is someone standing to it. So I went back again. Then one person gave the advice to me to call the whatsapp number on the sticker pasted in mrt. But no one picked up. So at the end I decided to press the emergency button. But because the staff also could not do much, I waited until the end of the train where the door will be opened when going back. It was fortunate that there is train fault that the train stopped at Joo Koon instead of Tuas Link.
Lesson learned, things can happen anytime. And during those time, it’s very hard to pray. Thankfully we have God who is not passive. He is in control and will help us even when we do not remember or know how to ask for help. And somehow we will be able to go through it with His grace.
