A Date With Jasmine
Ok, seriously, please read this quoted sentence. "This is a true story." Ok, laugh now. Ha ha.
There is a lady in the same organization I work for. Her name is Jasmine. She
is a very cute lady. She worked for sales and marketing, if I am not mistaken. I
don’t really know her job well.
I know that a lots of guys (single or married guys alike) do like this lady.
I remember that one of my co-worker would brag to me if he do talk to her in
occasions. Me too. I, sometimes, stumbled to her in elevators. But, I never
smile to her there. I could hardly remember any occasion that we do talk.
However, we did manage to talk via YM (she added me ;-))
One day, I was just get rejected by another lady with the famous ‘LJBF’
words. It saddened me, but, "So what? Next!". So, the force of nature is set to
motion, and without me realize, I had a lunch date with Jasmine at a hotel! Wow,
a date with Jasmine, it is just like a dream. I wonder how my friend’s face look
like when I brag to him about Jasmine. I could just be smiling.
Although the lunch hour is just for one hour, I guess, time passed so
quickly. We spent hours chatting and eating (more to chatting, because, she
always on diet).
At one time, a waiter come to ask, wondering if we like to have lobster.
Remembering it now, I feel so dumb, because I answered coolly, "sure." Jasmine,
is always with her professional looks attitude. She smiled to me. We continue
the lunch with lobster, then with deserts.
It is very rare to me to bring more than RM100 in my wallet. But it doesn’t
matter, because, this place (hotel) accept credit card. So, when the bill came,
I snatched it, and volunteer to pay. Again, she smiled to me, it felt like my
heart was not there, but stolen!
I stood up and walked to payment counter. What? I was charged with more than
RM400 for this lunch! I use a MasterCard credit card.
- Parking outside the hotel - RM10
- A flower for her - RM 50
- A lunch date for two - RM 423.50
Regret feeling to pay so muchRomantic feeling to see her
smile - priceless
I handed my credit card to cashier. He insisted to me that, because the
amount is so big, I need to pay some portion with cash, or I should present
secondary card to him. Well, I don’t have so much cash. I do have a secondary
VISA card, but it is not activated yet. The situation is kindly embarrassing to
me.
Perhaps, noticing something wrong going wrong, Jasmine came to the counter
too. After listening to the cashier’s explanation, she just picked up her purse
and presented her card to the cashier. Problem solved!
I wonder how embarrassing the situation. I could have suggested to Jasmine to
lunch at StarBuck instead. Jasmine just smiled to me.
In a sudden, my hand phone rang. It was not a phone call, it was an alarm. I
read the alarm message - "Morning!" I felt very confused and looked for the
exact time - 8:30am. What? 8:30am. I was in my bed room. Where is Jasmine? She
was not there (of course). What just happened? I was just dreaming? What? I was
late for work! Waa…
Lesson learnt: Don’t date Jasmine, ever. I learned it the
hard way, but thanks to God, it was just a dream. Ha ha.
