It all started with MSN. Thats the time before i went for Ex Wallaby at Australia, roughly August '04. My life then was plain, only work and games. I'll head home after work for games till late nights everyday w/o fail. Ocasionally, i'll use MSN while waiting for the game search engine to allocate me a random game. (FYI: i'm into WC3 Frozen Throne).
I get to chat with friends, including Emily as she logs in frequently. I felt at ease chatting with her. Calling each other names and suan-ing are what we usually do. Over time, i developed likings for her. She is cute!
Emiduckie: u always pang-seh me for games :(
Takeshi: Got meh? Ok lah, each time you log in, i'll off my games and chat with you instead.
Emiduckie: Haha! I dun have such great powers.
At that point in time, she wasn't aware of my feelings for her and i'm not sure of myself too. Thus, i choosed not to reveal anything as i don't wanna jump into a relation too soon. Its still early for me to conclude that i really like her. All i can do is to wait as time will allow me to realise what i really want. Furthermore, she may not be ready to accept me, spoiling a friendship is the last thing i wanna have.
We remain as friends and chat as usual. Everyday, i'll still rush home from work but not for games, but to see her in MSN. I feel comfortable, all work stress simply disappear while chatting with her.
As we progressed, our first outing came. It was a movie; Meet the Fockers. Knowing her for so many years, dated back from poly yr one (she's my classmate), this is the first time we are going out together. It was supposed to be a group outing, consisting of Teddy, Benny, Qiulin, Emily and me. But Ben and Ted last minute cannot make it due to some not-acceptable excuses :P So i informed the girls that two of them can't join us and QL played a trick on me. Saying that she can't locate her keys and don't feel like going out. That will be left with Emily and me! I was both gan-jiong and thrilled. Gan-jiong coz I've never been on a "date" for a long time. Thrilled coz i'll get to go out with her alone. But as i said, thats only a joke, ultimately QL came.
We got the tickets and head for the show.It was kinda awkward as i have not met them for ages, not much common topic with the girls. So i was behaving like a rock throughout. We went for photo taking after the movie as the department stores were doll up with X'mas decorations.
Soon its time for us to get home. I wanted to sent Emily back so badly as she once said in MSN that her area is "infested" by the Blanglas. But QL was around so i cancelled the thought.
On my way home, i was looking at the photos we took and realised that Emily resembles Lin XinRu!! Especially her big eyes *twinkle twinkle* Reached home and dad is still awake as usual. So i shared with him how i spent my night. Although there's nothing much worth mentioning, I just felt great coz i get to see her. This feeling is unexplainable merely by words. Shown dad the photos and he had the same sentiments, commented that Emily is attractive. That night, lying on my bed, I was still thinking of the way she smiles, so sweet, so mesmerizing ... ... I drifted to sleep, looking forward to see her again.
