Since I'm so free, I might as well blog about a SPECIAL day months ago. So, it was 30th of September 2010, a Thursday. The rest were having an early celebration for Jessica in school. Arthur came up with a surprise plan for sweety. I was gonna head out after school to buy a cake and reach school before their game end. If I weren't mistaken, they were playing treasure hunt/stations game, and I was suppose to be at the destination, some sort of like that I think.
I asked for Vivian Chong's help to accompany me. (can't help but denied I was scared of the thought of taking a taxi alone ya know the crimes and all) As time was rushing, and we didn't want to waste anymore of them, so we walked and tried to get a cab along the way. But it was lunchtime, and all of the cabs were loaded with passengers. So we walked all the way to Mega Mendung, trying to hunt for birthday cakes. But anyhow we reached there real fast (it felt that way) as I none stop talking, cause it's been long since I had a true long chat with Vivian Chong even though that lady sits just in front of in class. She's a busy person, comes in late, goes out early. (winks)
Ok then. All the way to Mega Mendung, we needed to cross a lot of roads, a lot of pedestrians and a lot of vehicles. Vivian reacted super funny and left me laughing so much, she's afraid of crossing roads (now I know that) and wouldn't stop reminding me to look around the road as I walk and talk. At one place, a lorry wanted to reverse but one of the workers saw us, so he banged his hands on the lorry asking him to stop, but his mate didn't respond, yet continued reversing. This happened about 2 to 3 times, and we kept on doubting whether we should cross or not. Finally, the lorry driver got his mate's message and stopped reversing. I gave him a smile and non-stopped giggling. "We met good people today." I told VC.
Both of us were heck hungry cause it's nearly 2pm. So we decided to have McD at Parkson. As I told you before, we were rushing the time. I can't stop looking at the watch, feeling nervous, worried that we might not be able to reach school in time. Before heading to The Kings for the birthday cake, we went for the toilet.
And,
that's when I bumped into my MOM!
Ok. I swear I wasn't doing anything illegal or anything out of guilt. I did inform my mom about the celebration of my guy friends' birthday, but I didn't mention about the surprise or getting out of the school to buy the birthday cake. So I spent some time explaining everything to Mom, thank goodness she did not continue questioning me.
VC was freaked out, so was I. Butterflies fluttering in my stomach! We ran to get a cab. Honestly, both of us were broke, I forgot to bring extra money and VC didn't plan to come out with me. So yeah. But gladly, we still manage to pay the taxi fares and got back school safely.
And just in time too.
I think I'll just skip the frustration part.
Sweety stood in front of me, blind folded. Everyone was so quiet, the whole tensed up atmosphere was freaking me out like hell. He was extremely surprised realizing I was there. He pulled me close to him and god, the strong feeling stirred deep inside myself. I didn't feel that kind of warmness for a very long time.
Few days later, during his birthday, I asked for another big favour from Vivian. As Form Fours were having our PMR holiday, and sweety's birthday falls on one of the holidays. So, the huge birthday card that I worked on lots of sleepless nights was passed safely into his hands during his Wednesday BM tuition, through Vivian. I exhaled in relief.
He was really happy. And so was I.
But there were heck a lot of regrets. I haven't got enough time (freaking time is always in my way) to make it perfect yet. I didn't get to make the special columns for me and his best buddy's wish. So I owed him a kiss now. Lol.
