i used to recieve flowers in my office on V'day in the past... Cos i've got a bf who works in NOEL where ordering flowers is as easy as snapping his fingers... But now not anymore... Cos DaR is in-charge of 101 things during the season's time... From X'mas to V'day every year is their company's peak period, where orders start flooding in & they have to work shifts in order to process all of them... & their yearly bonus depends alot on the revenue during this time of the year... & being in-charge, means he has to perform chores from IT (setting up all the systems), to HR (hiring temp staffs, scheduling their timetable, doing their payroll), to Trainer (training them to process the many orders with the system), etc, etc & even to the extend of being a taxi driver (sending the temps home after work at 6am in the morning)... Our yellow jazz really become the yellow citycab liao loh... kua kua kua...
DaR was busy & keep reminding me the nite b4 not to expect any flowers to be delivered to my office... & no doubt, really no flowers for me... :( But he promised he'll be early to pick me up for dinner... But end up, he reach Science Park only at nearly 9pm!!! & al'tot we agreed that we're not gonna get "chop", & just have somethg simple... doesn't mean we shld go to the foodcourt where we'll go 3 out of the 5times a wk when come DaR pick me off work... (-_-")
Seeing me looking disappointed, he still jokingly say no surprises or flowers but got me 2 balloons... I was thinking, "balloons AGAIN sia!!! izzit those i got on my birthday & this time ONLY 2? After dinner like any other day, he sent me home straight... at the carpark, he showed me the balloons... it's those Big Bubble Type with "I LOVE YOU" on it... Now i know why only got 2... Then duno why suddenly, he insisted on keeping one for himself... I gave him a look & think, "What's on his mind sia? Get 2 balloons still want to keep one for himself..."
I went home feeling kinda disappointed at how the day ended... Not long after i stepped into my room, DaR called me... Say he stomach pain ask me open the door he want to come up & use the toilet... So i opened the door & waited for him... Then at the corner of my eye i saw the other balloon which DaR insist on keeping tied onto a box near the plants along the corridor...
But he was nowhere to be seen... My fone rang & DaR was ald on his way back home sia... Really so sweet of him to think of such ideas to give me a surprise... He's someone who is not good at keeping secrets... Think he may have kana "internal injuries" for not telling me throughout the nite... hahaha =P He specially went to buy my present with his ah bang, Yahzid the nite b4 after work... This is the 1st time DaR buy something for me himself as a real surprise instead of bringing me along to choose on my own... Feel so so xing fu neh... *muacks*
