Special Day…?

Today was special.

Reko and I had booked tickets for the Wolverine movie a couple of days ago, and I had told him last night to meet at the bus interchange at around 9am today.  To my big surprise, he gave me a call at 8.30am (plenty of calls, actually, but I missed all of them as I was washing up) and told me that he was already standing outside my door.  I was like, “What?!”  And his reaction was, “Yeah, I came to pick you up!”

Well, I think I was so shocked that I went “What?!” for almost three times, before it registered in my head that he’s standing foolishly right outside the door.  I quickly got my keys and invited him in (and I was still in my sleeping clothes too).

After I got changed, it was around 8.45am.  The movie was actually at 12.40pm, but we had wanted to have brunch at Marche, which would start from 10am.  Reko hailed a cab and whisked me off to Vivocity, so that we could have each have a cup of coffee before breakfast.  It was a very nice experience, sitting at Coffeebean, sipping our skinny Cafe Latte, enjoying the rare sight of an empty (and dark – since most of the shops were still closed) Vivocity, and making some small talk about making art, drawing anatomy, swine flu, etc etc.

And then we went ahead as planned, to Marche, then movies.  After the movie, we grabbed an early dinner before heading back home.

Well, it might seem like a pretty normal date, but to me it’s really special.  Because it’s been a long time since we last had such a “date”, and where he’s especially attentive to me, and I never got upset at him  for the whole day, not even once.  (Now, that’s rare!)  Not to mention the fact that he had never came voluntarily to pick me up for dates.  XD So yeah, this is the first time that he had done that, and I’m very touched (and surprised, at the same time ^^).

Thank you dearie, for I had such a wonderful day with you today.  ^_^
