8 July... the night when she went for a gathering dinner with her school mates at Suntec Fish & Co.

She was alone... waiting at the orange checkered table for her friends... till someone walked up behind her back... with a slight tint of uncertainty in his voice, he asked "Are you J?" She turned her head and looked at that familiar face that brightened up suddenly... "Are you Y then?" She chuckled, thinking it had been a few years since they had last met at the convocation... He looked embarrassed... and his eyes drifted sideways... as if seeking for help... but there wasn't anyone around...

Feeling surprised with his silence, she said "Yup... I'm J... you are Y right...can't recognize me?"

He looked a little unsure... still with his face showing a slight tint of red... He couldn't be sure what to do or say... and kept quiet... She smiled at him and said "you are Y right... err... why you are still standing outside the restaurant... come on in ar...” He looked at her face... feeling much more relieved upon seeing her sweet smile... and jokingly climb over the restaurant railing to hop onto the seat next to her.. She gasped... "What you doing... go through the door...” she said, looking astonished... He looked right into her wide eyes, smiled sweetly and headed towards the restaurant door...

Dinner started after the rest of their friends reached... She could feel the attention from him through out the dinner... but always quickly brushed it asides... Her friends looked happy upon learning that she was back to her single life again... and especially him... His face was radiant and his body language showed interest towards her every word and language...

His mind was filled up with everything about her... every move she made... every smile she flashed... every words spoken through her delicate sweet cherry lips... he passed his mobile phone to her and asked her to key in her msn email address into it so that they can continue to catch up.. Deep down inside him... he's afraid that he will be rejected... he's afraid that she will say that she doesn’t msn... he's afraid... carefully she took over his mobile from his now cold hands and started keying in her email address with her delicate fingers.. And he kept looking at her every move... as if trying to engrave each and every small little details of her into his memory... she passed the mobile back to him.. He felt excited... as this was her first message keyed into his mobile phone... quietly... he saved her message into the archive folder...

The night ended with the much-sought after catching up... and more plans to catch up further among the four friends... as the friends bid goodnight to each other... their eyes met again... and he smiled sweetly at her... with his heart making a quiet decision.. He hoped to see her again... hoped to hear her sweet voice again... hoped to have the chance to date her soon...

she felt a slight stirred in her heart and pondered why..

.. To be continued... ;P
