For close to 3 weeks, we acted as nothing happened. I thought probably it was a subtle way of her rejecting me without having to tell me straight in the face. So life went on as usual till 20th jan. I was up earlier cos I was going to be serving that Sunday morning. I realised that I had received a sms that morning at bout 12 plus a.m. It was from her. In the sms she said that I was probably asleep at that time of the sms which was so true. Next she said referred to the thing I said to her and said that she was willing to give it a try. Seriously at that point of time I felt nothing. Maybe I was still not convinced that it was actually happening. The night prior she was at Jay Chou's concert so I replied I had Jay Chou to thank for this favorable reply. Then I remembered replying as well that it would be my first BGR so I requested for her to be patient with me. Then I went on as usual to get ready and made my way to church. I also sms my sister bout it cos she knew that I had liked this girl for the longest time.
When I saw her at church I said hi and went on as usual. She had requested earlier that we keep the trial underwraps till a later time. So we acted as usual. When we were done with church, she sms me though we were in the same room to ask me if I was leaving and stupid me I asked her across the room if she sms me. To me, I thought that she probably had sms me earlier and I wanted to confirm. For her, it was to ask me so that we could leave subtly together. My first mistake. Dumb me...... So we did leave subtly together. Next mistake, I should have sent her home. When the train came to my stop I just got off. Kind of embarrasing to admit but I did just that. No wonder she got upset. But I was oblivious to that. On the wednesday, I was out with a couple of friends and she was in church having a meeting. A friend offered to send me back to church to meet her. At first I was not too keen cos I was feeling sick. But I finally decided to. So I met her in church and went back with her. As usual, I left at my stop but this time I sms her a little while later to tell her that I intended to send her back but I was not feeling too well. It was then that I realised that she was upset. So immediately I called her. But I really did not know what to say so I just apologised. Still remember that was one of the most silent conversations I ever had on the phone. After we hung up, I knew I was in trouble.
Next morning I saw that I had received a sms. It was her. She said that we needed to talk cos we seems to have different ideas of the relationship. So I replied and we set a place that evening to have dinner as well as to talk. Still remember that it was Curry Flavour at City Hall. Only four days into the relationship and I got my first warning letter so to say......
to be continued......
Good try!! :P
