This has got to be a bad dream...
You know when you hear absolute horror stories about a travesty that happened to someone who works with a friend of a friend, and you say 'oh! How dreadfully horrible!' and try very hard to feel sorry as you shake your head and look as if you're pitying them; but really, you're just secretly happy that you're not the one it has happened to?
Well, the very worst happened today...something I never thought would befall me, though I have heard of it occurring once or twice to unfortunates gossiped about at luncheons. What you may ask has happened? A most embarrassing, degrading, and downright humiliating scene, that's what.
Ore-sama's credit card was declined!!
...And in a public place no less! One that I frequent! Oh, I do not know how such a thing could have developed. Of course everyone was quite kind and tried to tell me it was all right and it must be a mistake and that it happens all the time. OF COURSE IT WAS A MISTAKE!! and things like this do NOT happen all the time to Atobe Keigo. EVER. Thus I called my father, and I called the bank and caused quite an overall commotion in the department store. It seems, and I was told this by the banker for whom it was easy to remain calm and act disdainful, that one of their foreign branches was robbed sometime the night before and that because of this their system has errors and BLAHBLAHBLAH, point being my assets are frozen until next week while they repair their funds transferable! Completely ridiculous. I've been assured my accounts are safely in order and a bank representative even visited the house this evening. It's not fair! It was only my spending account, my father says! At least he had the decency to spare me utter mortification by putting the items I had been currently purchasing on his tab.
*SIGH*
[An entire week and I cannot even procure lunch for myself?! Damn. This really does suck. I feel almost..vulnerable? What if something happens and I'm stranded without money? I don't even possess any cash. It would probably sound silly to most anyone, but I just don't like having that security taken away. It's going to be a long week.]
