It was the last day of the year. We had so much fun together. We had ended a karoke session and were on our way back. I did not know where the idea came from but I very much wanted to tell her that I liked her. I had a crush on her for bout 2 years prior and I actually wanted to leave it as that. Guess at the back of my mind I never expected her to like me. After all, she was the pretty and confident one, whereas for me, I shall not elaborate. That night was special. Call it impulse or what, I just wanted so much to tell her that I really like her. But it was tough man. After all, I had never ever told a girl that directly before. We went pass one station to another. Time was running out. Somehow, I was convinced that if I did not say it tonight, I would not have the guts to do so ever again. So as we went pass Toa Payoh station, I looked straight at her and said,'........, 妳知道我喜歡妳很久了嗎?' She was shocked. So was I. Even though I wanted to say it, I was surprised that the words did escape my mouth. There was silence for a long while,......
She:'I don't know what to say.'
I:'You don't have to say anything.'
Silence........
She:'I really don't know what to say.'
I:'Errr you don't have to say anything.'
Silence.......
She:'I am tired. We'll talk about it tomorrow (another time, can't remember which)
I:'Sure.'
Though Yio Chu Kang mrt was not too far along the way, it sure felt like it.
Still remember the scene as I was walking across the bridge towards home, everything felt so different. It was a load of my back. Imagine liking someone for 2 years and finally being able to tell it to the person. Frankly, I don't think I would have felt very much if she rejected me there and then. The feeling of relief was already superb.
to be continued......
applause!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! You so brave.. I'm so proud of you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
