V Day

It had to be V-Day. It just had to!! Why does everything get so pre-defined with this day?

I spend a year plus at my second job in RCKL and developed such a hatred towards flowers. Steve bought me flowers and had them sent to my office, 2 days before V Day, thinking that I wouldn't hate it as much as it wasn't on the correct day.

Steve hasn't been around since Friday night last week, CNY holidays... went back to see his folks.

I had unconfirmed plans with a friend who had unconfirmed plans and me as back up plan.... We're squared out... by the heavy rain. Called it even and still got stranded from the heavy rain for an hour. I was hanging around the smoking area and knew I should have just changed back into my uniform and gone back to work. At least it would have been a productive hour. But no, I sat with the rest of the people with the same fortune as me, at the smoking area stranded coz of the heavy rain.

Brilliant idea struck me. My knight in shining armour! Just a phone call away.

Thankfully he had no plans, surprising coz he's always got someone or another. He came to pick me up and we went to have dinner. Of all lovely places, we went to my favourite breakfast place. I can proudly say, we had breakfast for dinner. Pan in State, great place that serves 24 hours breakfast. Love it!

This man I am spending V Day with, I've known him for 4 years and would trust my life in his hands, every aspect of my life into his hands.... This man, who bought me assam laksa from Penang and sent to my house, just coz I had a craving. What other man to spend V Day with, if not him?

We always have these kinda chat/coffee sessions together. Most of the time, we just understand each other, some inexplicable connection.

Thank you for spending V Day with me and for coming over on Sunday. You know I don't have that many friends, but glad I could always count on you.

I didn't publish anything intentionally out to "get you". Let it go. (and by "it" you know what I mean!)
