You will never believe what happened today - me, Fatie and Melidude got stuck in KLCC's parking staircase - and we almost got stuck in there forever.
It went like this. We had gotten off on the wrong parking level from the lift in Isetan. So, Melidude had this bright idea of taking the staircase because it was much faster to get down another level by foot instead of waiting for the lift. So yeah, that's what we did - only to discover that the door leading to the carpark was locked.
All right, no problem. We went back to the same floor where we started and discovered that that was locked too - and so was the door one level above. Uh-oh. Some maze-like tunnels and more flights of stairs later, it finally dawned on us that the doors can only be opened from the outside but not from the inside.
We didn't panic just yet though. There were emergency phones hanging on the walls right beside the doors so we smashed the lid of one of them with a high-heeled shoe and managed to put our SOS through to the security department.
Just when we were about to pass out from the heat and lack of air, the door below us opened. We yelled at whoever it was to hold the door - there was a foreign couple dragging along a suitcase who apparently shared the same thought as Melidude had come up with twenty minutes earlier. We let them know the hazards of taking the staircase and together we trudged back into the carpark, free at last from the strange nightmare of getting trapped in a staircase.
So that's it. The Staircase Case, as Melidude called it.
