consider my day made

for the last 2 weeks, someone and i have been trying to find some time to meet for a bit so that he can introduce to me a female friend of his so that i could check out her group. that sounds like a whole lot of contact but in actual fact it's not. just a few text messages being exchanged. which then again is a fair bit of contact when it comes to someone and me.

over the weekend, we finally got that chance. it was really brief. no more than half an hour. but since his friend had to rush off for a meeting, more than half of that time was actually spent with him.

it has been a really long time since i last got to talk to him properly face to face. and i miss that. all the thoughts and feelings just came rushing back to me.

when he first walked over to me waving and smiling his big bright smile, i was so nervous that i could hardly return much more than a small smile of my own. then we walked side by side to meet his friend. i noticed immediately how close he walked next to me. i'm not sure if he was trying to steer me in another direction since i was on his left, walking straight and he wanted to head left. perhaps. but that wasn't exactly the vibe i felt. or maybe i was just more conscious of his proximity as compared to if i was walking with other guys. then again i've always felt that he does stand pretty close to me (if we even have a chance to be standing next to each other and talking at all) but it felt nice. being that close to him. maybe it was a bit weird since we were at a place where a lot of his friends were and i'm pretty sure some of 'em were looking at us with teasing eyes. or maybe that's just me being self conscious again.

his friend was nice. we seemed like we would be able to get along. it's a pity that i didn't get a chance to talk to her longer. then again that wasn't that bad a thing either since i got to spend most of the time talking to someone.

we had a nice conversation. he talked bout what he did on his birthday and what some of his friends did to celebrate for him. it sounded like a lot of fun. his friends gave him a huge 'happy birthday' balloon and made him hold it the entire time at a meeting that they had. i told him that i would have gone as far as to put his face on that balloon. he laughed and told me not to give his friends any more ideas. we also talked bout relationships. i think we're kinda all at that age where it's inevitable that such talk will come up. there was a lot of laughing and a lot of joking. definitely a fun time.

it's a pity that we couldn't chat more 'coz his friends were looking for him so that they could start doing something. i had other plans too. so we said goodbye. i think he was going for a handshake (yeah we're proper like that even though with some other guys i wouldn't even think twice bout a hug and cheek kiss) but since i'm not used to that i was already waving. he waved back. we parted ways.

definitely made my day!
