breakfast

men, they are attracted to new things,

women, they always reminiscent the past.

i am no exception. 

i am so bored from studying, i needed a break so badly, 

so i went flipping through our old photo album.

originally i had wanted to search for the every first photo we took together, 

but instead, i found this. 

somehow, the same warm feeling is back again. 

i think it was the fist or second month of even week into our relationship, 

and one day, he meet me for breakfast to gave me this before i went off to work.

he said, because where i intern was at the other end of Singapore, 

i had to get up extra early to be on time, so he made this just in case i was hungry on the way. 

he said, i know you love green tea stuff, so that swiss roll was specially bought to pacify my taste-buds.

because its my first time being someone's girlfriend, 

because its my first time...

there were so many things that were new, 

that i had to get used to, 

that i would like to savour slowly and enjoy the process thoroughly.

i was shocked beyond words by how sweet he could be. 

18months on, 

i look back, and i think this journey together with you is simply amazing, 

from being strangers, 

to being friends, 

to close friends, 

to being a couple, 

to being comfortable being around each other, 

to being who we are, even in our worst state, 

to simply sharing every little thing with each other.

i never knew there will be such a day, 

i'll feel so at ease being with someone other than my parents, 

i never knew there will be a day, 

someone will love me like this, 

so many things, 

i never knew. 

but you, 

showed me them.
