Ah Kian was a very young man when he was still practicing law in a firm situated in the central business district in Kuala Lumpur. He had had his time enjoying his life to the maximum. The daily night out for drinks and the accompany of different ladies. His companion for the night had included some of his own female colleagues. One night stand was his common adventure in many bars and clubs around Kuala Lumpur. Not only that, he was the envious of his colleagues in the corporate ladder. His boss would say, "Make it one more good closing, I'll make you a partner of this firm" every time he won a case. He was more than delight to hear this praise and encouragement. He had worked hard and played hard. Life was ahead of him!
One night, he was lying down on his sofa in a very expensive condominium and he got a call from his old friend. "Ah Kiang, how are you?", asked the caller. He shrugged and replied, "As usual Ah Tang, how about you? Got any kang tao?", he laughed and trying to maintain his composure. The other side of the caller laughed too albeit a bit eerily, "Pretty much the same". The caller stopped laughing as though the line had went dead that moment. The conversation had become serious. "You got to come down to Johor to visit me, I'd got this cun babe and I told her about you!", Ah Tang said. "Oh really", he sounded disbelief at his friend who actually got him a girl. "Do tell me about it, you sick bastard", he asked quizzically at his old friend. "Ok, she's a nice girl, good body, sweet voice and very sexy too, dude!", Ah Tang was getting excited telling his friend. Ah Tang continued, "Come down next weekend lar, I introduce you to her. You won't be dissappointed!", Both of them chatted for a few minutes before Ah Kiang bid goodbye to him. "I will call you again next Friday", the line went dead with click.
After each call from Ah Tang, Ah Kiang will start shivering and prayed hard, he would hold the cross or just read from the bible. "I am so sorry Ah Tang, I didn't know it would happen", he would cry and cried until he passed out. Tomorrow morning, he would work hard as usual and partied hard through the night. Ah Tang would call him again the next Friday. This went on to become a routine since Ah Tang had passed away at one night during one of his many visit to Johor. As you see, Ah Tang was his good friend who would share his girlfriends with his old buddy Ah Kiang. They would take turns to drug the girls and taking turns to have fun themselves. One night their escapade turned awry and the girl they were having fun died because of drug overdose which they had forcefully fed her and held her captive for the weekend. Ah Tang and Ah Kiang fought over each other for the death of the girl. Their intentions had been for fun only. Unfortunately, in a heated argument, Ah Kiang furiously tood a pen knife and stabbed Ah Tang to death.
Ah Kiang made Ah Tang and the girl's death like an accident and had a rough time explaining to the police and his family as to how and why the incident happened. It was a horrible month that had happened to Ah Kiang. For fear of police of arresting him for the murder, he had to lie to many friends, colleagues and family that Ah Tang and the girl committed suicide because of bad debts with Ah Longs. The drugs that the police found in the deceased's body, Ah Kiang lied that they used it to relief their stress. So Ah Kiang had successfully gotten off the blame from the whole horrible incident.
Now, every Friday, the ghost of Ah Tang will continuously call Ah Kiang and asked him to join him like their usual escapade. Meanwhile the dead girl's spirit will always follow him whenever he visit any pub and club. The girl will possess those girls he brought home and she will force him to drug himself. Not only the ghost force Ah Kiang to do drugs but he had gotten hooked onto it. Such was the story of Ah Kiang who had live his life to the fullest and every moment he was haunted by his friend and the drugged girl. Ah Kiang's life is not as what his boss and his colleagues think highly off.
For over 30 years, Ah Kiang had endure the hauntings of his old friend and the dead girl. He had remember when he handed his resignation letter to his boss after his finish final case for the firm. "Ah Kiang, why do you have to resign lar?", his resignation shocked his boss. "Boss, I'd had my struggle and my happiest time working for you and I need to go somewhere, " Ah Kiang told his boss with a very exhaustive look. "Look Ah Kiang, you are the best lawyer in my firm and I am not happy about you leaving, what is the problem actually? Am I not treating rightly?", his boss asked him. "No boss, I need to find my inner peace", Ah Kiang said. "I can increase your salary, give you a bigger room and you can even hire another secretary, how about a sexytary?, his boss said humourously to him hopefully to change Ah Kiang's mind. His boss knew of his adventures but had closed one eye as long as Ah Kiang was helping him pouring money into the company's account. "Look Ah Kiang, I know everyone's had their own problem but is there anything I can do so you will not leave?", the boss told Ah Kiang. "No, I am leaving. In this three months I will handover my what ever yet to start to Ah Joe, he is a very capable person. I'd teach him enough to know what he needs to do, " Ah Kiang stood up and shook his boss hands and went out.
"Tomorrow I will be a monk, " he spoke silently to himself. He glanced around the office. He will miss his colleagues especially the girls. He will miss Kuala Lumpur. He will miss its beautiful night life.
