Out of sight.. Out of mind?
Today's SMZRD's birthday.. I recalled last night and found myself having flashbacks then.. Thought I should take stock here, to get it off my chest..
Maybe I should start with "how we met?"..
Hmm, ok.. Basically she was a temporary staff in a sister department, and a lunch kaki when I first joined.. Friendly, fun-loving and a cheerful bubble of energy that can brighten almost anyone's day... I never really got close to her, except during her last few days with the company... She knew that her contract wasn't going to be renewed, due to differences in opinion between her and her then-supervisor...
So basically she was feeling down and I asked her out for a dinner and movie, hoping to cheer her up before she left the company... Nothing much happened, except that we watched "Music & Lyrics" hand-in-hand... And went for dinner at Sushi Tei... Followed by sending her home and on the way, listening to her talk about her ex-supervisor and her plans after the company...
Then something unexpected happened.
After walking her back to her place, we hugged and she planted a kiss on my cheek... I guess that sort of started us going for a few more such outings... To Sentosa, VivoCity, Kallang Leisure Mall, Jurong Point, Marina Square...
