Her Smile

When she turned and smiled back at me, I know that I will not be seeing that smile for another couple of months.

Peishan found me first. I was looking for her in the crowd that was coming up from the platform level at Somerset stattion when she came bouncing up to me. She flashed me a smile, before I did the same. Her smile is very beautiful, especially when the dimple forms on her left cheek.

We walked to Cineleisure and like always, I like listening to her talk. About her driving lessons in the morning, about her family, especially her father and so on. It's still quite early, so the ticket booth on the fourth floor was like, empty. Three kids were buying their movie tickets and it wasn't long before it's our turn. She wanted to watch Ice Age 3 initially but she was afraid that the movie has finished showing since it stared quite a while ago. But, yeah, the movie is still showing, but she has already watched it a few weeks back. So it's Harry Potter and the Half Blooded Prince today. She chose us couple seats at the the second last row.

After buying tickets, we went to Xin Wang to have lunch since we still have time. I couldn't make up my mind on what to eat, so I just anyhow choose the Luncheon Meat with Egg Noodle soup while she had Beef Hor Fun. So it's just talking, and more talking for the rest of the meal. She didn't know that her Beef Hor Fun came with fried onions. So when her meal came, she was carrying the oh-my-god kind of look on her face. I forgot how particular she was when it comes to eating. Then half way through eating, she had to make a couple of phone calls to settle some emergency for her hall.

Half Blood Prince was kind of... plain. There is like no climax for the movie. But I enjoyed it anyway. Throughout the movie, I kept stealing glares at her. She looks more mature with her specs on in the cinema. After movies we went for dessert at the dessert store at Hereen. We shared a serving of Mango Snow Ice together. Quite sweet. And yeah, more talking. I think she was doing most of the talking. I was more of listening. And I like it. It's good just listening to her talk. I hoped I was a good listener.

I sent her off to work after dessert. She showed me her punch card area and stuffs. We parted outside the female toilet, cos she needs to change for work. She bidded me goodbye and went off to change. When she turned and smiled back at me, I know that I will not be seeing that smile for another couple of months. It doesn't kill to wait for her to come out, I told myself. So I waited outside for her. She came out like 15 minutes later, smiled and said "Eh. You are still here. Thanks for waiting." I followed her downstairs to her work area and we parted... ...

Reluctantly, on my side.
