Awww…so he had not forgotten our date. This would be our first. We met in a group meeting last week. He promised me something special. I guess it must be the secluded beach that he told us last week. So we would be strolling bare-footed, hand-in-hand (nah, not so fast), enjoying the warm breeze and the sunset? Or maybe a dinner for two at somewhere special? Or maybe just one of those silly gadgets that he wanted to show me? Guys nowadays, don’t expect too much from them, eh?
Right, so what am I going to wear? It must be something comfortable enough for the beach (just in case I am right) and formal enough for the dinner (in case it is one of those hotels or posh restaurants). But what if it is just a simple dinner at the hawkers’ centre? Who said Char Koay Teow can’t be special, eh? Special ingredient, extra big prawns and super oily, huh?
So, how? What shall I wear? Probably I should call him to find out exactly where we are going? That would settle the matter, eh? Or maybe I shouldn’t be overly concern. I think the best outfit would be a pair of jeans and a plain blouse. Wear some accessories and apply light make-up, and BINGO. Agree? But… What if… argh never mind. Will settle with that dark blue jeans and sexy black blouse.
Hhhmmm…. is the hair’s turn. Shall I let my hair down or tie in ponytail? It would not be in question if not because of the hot weather. Ok, ok, let it down, and bring along a hairclip. Settle.
Oh oh…10 more minutes to go. Bag. Ok that black bag. It has been in my closet for too long. It needs an evening walk today. Shoe. Ah, sequin shoes. Right, I am ready. 5 more minutes to go…
Oh I am so excited! Aren’t you too? Excited for me? But… there is a problem. Only one. Whose number is that?
