Act 1, Scene 2: Squarepants

2:11 pm: Can you fetch me?

2:19 pm: I'm feeling so down.

2:21 pm: Give me half an hour; I'll be there.

She's having some problems. And I wanted to be there for her. She cried last night. And for the period when we hung up till I fell asleep, I felt so helpless. I wanted to embrace her and rock her and let her know that everything'll be ok, but I couldn't.

And I wanted to be there for her when she woke up. But I didn't wanna hold on too strongly. She's not my girlfriend..but that doesn't mean I don't love her.

And so I picked Nur up again from work. She looked so beautiful today. I love it when she wears heels,cos it makes her seem taller. =) but that means she's got to look where she steps. That's why I park as close to the kerb nowadays.

It was raining slightly when we were on our way back. She's having another bad day and I didn't wanna make it worst but I wanted to let her have an outlet. Hmm, dad's can be tough to deal with especially if you're a daughter. They're like another boyfriend you've gotta appease. But I told her to hang in there and let him have his moments. I think he's just sore over your last trip, girl. He's watching out for you.

So we stopped over at Upper Seletar on our way back. Up to this point I haven't been able to make her smile and all I could muster was my pathetic-sounding but totally sincere 'hmms' as she told me about her work.

We've been going out for some time now but lately we've been visiting parks and inevitably we'll spot some monkeys. This is where she smiled. And when she did, I just melted inside. I mean, I can't describe the feeling but when she saw the monkeys, it was like she decided to make my day and smiled. And I swear it was the most beautiful smile I've seen. =)

Ha.We have this joke about monkeys we see. We usually tease each other about the monkeys being our friends. But there was this once we actually saw these 2 monkeys going at it at the side of the road and we coined the term 'frisky'. Ha. I guess she was thinking of that moment when she smiled. Horny monkeys. I kinda felt bad she had to see that but she just laughed and I didnt feel so bad.

Anyway, she had her second driving experience today. I'd wanted to bring her somewhere more spacious but since she was ready for it, I let her. But the course had a bit of a problem to it. She had to use the accelerator and since she hadn't done that before, she was abit hesitant. I guess we'll have to work on her coordination. =) but she did great cos she didnt panic or anything. She did one revolution of a slanted roundabout and we decided to call it a day. I do hope I can teach her more next time.

On our way back, we passed by a couple of monkeys and she wanted to take some pictures of them. Ha. This is where I melted again! Her hand was unsteady and since the monkey was on my side, I used my hand to steady hers. And her hand was so WARM and SMOOTH. I just melted, man. =) She got two good pictures of the monkeys and we left.

I asked if she had already had her lunch. She said she wasn't in the mood to eat. But she hadn't eaten the whole day; and when she called home, her dad said her mum hadn't started cooking. So I advised her to get something as alas perut (appetiser). So we drove to the place behind Darul Makmur thinking I was gonna get her some epok-epok (curry puffs) or Roti John (some sandwich-french toast kinda thing). But we saw a KFC outlet there so I asked if she wanted that.

We parked and walked when all of a sudden...She tripped (cos she's wearing high heels) at the carpark. Thinking back, I actually shouted when she cried out..Ha. But I managed to grab her arm to steady her. tsk tsk

So I got her her usual Zinger Meal and we walked back. She unlocked the car (part of our lesson) and drove off. Ha. And she started telling me which direction to turn on our way back. I guess it was to waste some time..I like that. Ha.

It was raining by the time I got her back and she learned to lock the car (part of the lesson again). Ha. As usual, I sent her up the lift before we parted ways. And this time...I managed to say 'I love you' in person. Ha. I didn't see her reaction but I hope it was a good one. =D score!

4:56 pm: Sedap? =)

5:03 pm: Sedap..free.

Ha.

"We met by coincidence;
But we're together, by destiny"

I love, Nur.
