Cokejuice & Liquidfreak: Part 1

Blob. Blob. Bubble. Gurgle. Fart.
Slowly, a form began to take shape and suddenly, the dim light streamed through the thickly dusted bulb. "Hoi Samuel!" called Liquidfreak impatiently. "Is the soda ready yet?" Blob. Burp. "Ooops, yea... it's ready. I was just... um... adding some of my cokejuice into this mixture. It should taste about right." "Okay" replied Liquidfreak, and she disappeared through the doorway.

You see, Samuel is Cokejuice, and Liquidfreak is a human being. It was Liquidfreak who stumbled upon Cokejuice while consuming... Coke. It was one of those hazy days, hot and humid - it was the month of tropical January. Liquidfreak had ordered a cold glass of Coke with extra ice. But the thirst was great. Soon, she was finishing the 2nd can.

Sweating profusely, Liquidfreak proceeded to wipe the sweat off her face when the "koay teow" man came over with another can of Coke. He said in his chinglish accent "I tink you likes Coke velly, velly march. I get tis can from my great great fren. He die maaaany years ago. I duno wat to do with tis can, so u like?" Liquidfreak was almost disgusted and shocked that this oily koay teow man had invited himself over and sat next to her so closely. Liquidfreak was about to let herself slide away knowing that there's an opening between the red plastic chair and the blue table, when her eyes caught a glimpse of "golden classic" embossed on the label of the rusted can.

Her eyes widen with glee, and an almost evil smirk forms on her cold complexion. Her thoughts linger to her vast collection of Coca-Cola. "I must have this can!" thought Liquidfreak. Somehow or rather, the koay teow man noticed the blank stare on Liquidfreak. He immediately sat up straight and shoved the rusted can into her hands. Then he spoke softly "$150". When there wasn't any reply, he said a little louder this time "Velly cheap!" Liquidfreak stare at the rusted can for a moment and then raised her eyebrows "This UGLY can for $150?! You've got to be CRAZY! Noooo, I don't want!" and shoved the can back towards the koay teow man.

Silently, Liquidfreak was praying that the koay teow man would reduce his price to maybe $20. Determined, the koay teow man said "Ok, $100... velly cheap oledi." Liquidfreak said no again and this time, she pretended to get up. "Ok. Ok. U say how march, I give." Without thinking, Liquidfreak said $20. And so... the bargain begins:
Koay teow man: Kenot-la, $20 I eat wat. $75-la.
Liquidfreak: $20 + 1 koay teow goreng, extra spicy, no "si hum".
Koay teow man: Where can!!!
Liquidfreak: $10 + 2 koay teow goreng, extra spicy, no "si hum" and 1 with "si hum".
Koay teow man: Hah? U sot-ah?
Liquidfreak: Ok, then $5 + 3 koay teow goreng...
Koay teow man: Ok. Ok. U give me $20 but I no give u koay teow goreng.
Liquidfreak: Deal.

And so... Liquidfreak walked away with one of the most priceless collection in the world - for just $20 + 1 free koay teow goreng, non-spicy with "si hum". (That was because her dad called her and asked her to "ta pao" lunch for him.)
