Chronicles of A vol 8.: I asked.

hi all!
(oops about the punctuation! Too lazy to shift and too lazy to type on word doc.)

I decided to find out anyways. I figured if he didn't want to say anything about it, I'll probably have to really really start worrying. And since I have this lamentable habit to stick my head in the sand and hide, if I don't do it now, I'd have just remember that I have never asked him and have this little black hole of discontent that will manifest Ito inferiority complex like many years down the road.

Better to have it over and done with than to chew the freaking thing like cud in my four stomachs.


incidentally, I have not been online thru'out the whole week, hence I have not been able to reply to all your comments. I thank you all for the lovely advice. I particularly agree with jayaxe that a marriage cert isn't a absolute road to fidelity, which is why there is always a sense of guardedness about one's partner. Let's face it, it's really not him I worry about, it's the other girls around him that worry me. I think any woman who is decently self-conscious and has a slightly frayed sense of self-worth will agree to it.


but by the time I finished writing the previous entry and have some time to think, I worry less and less about that picture. In fact, when he came back around, I was even ready to let it go. afterall, it's a male thing to have some pin-ups somewhere. And cars are his favorite non-living object. Have a pretty gal draped over it is probably a bonus of sorts.


in any case, it was a fairly easy topic to broach, thankfully. All I have to do was just pop into his room while he was around and manuvereredrederd(when do I stop?) his head to the pile of pictures which he still left very openly on the table (I actually gave him time to realize the pile and see if he went into a flurry to hide them).


AKK: hello! What are these?


So much for tact and subtlety, sorry Zhebin, I cannot reach zhebinism enlightenment liao).

A: eh? What what? Oh , these? pics I took down from the office.



He was completely clueless to me singling out the 2 particular pics.


AKK: I mean these 2 lah. Who's she? Quite chio ah.


Never show fear! Pretend to like the pic as well as he, although you are dying to claw that woman's eyes out for looking so perfect. Admire it for her its worth. it may be the only think she's good at.


A: Oh! Those! Last year's carshow. She asked me to take her pic.


AKK: what? She asked you? Confirm got lots of ppl taking her pic what, why she single you out?


I considered cutting out a her outline in red paper....


A: oh yah, of cos got a lot of ppl taking. But she asked me to take them.


My ah-mah's red wooden clogs will be wonderful in easing out all those creases on the paper....


AKK: Why?


A: cos she said she will not see any of those pics they took of her unless she asks, so she asked me, among some of them. She gave me her email so I can send them.


A couple of joss-sticks to burn spot where her Bambi eyes are....


AKK: hmmm....And you find it very normal? Her asking you, among all those hum-sup old perverts/lechers she could have asked to get the pics from? In any case, why you put the pics up in the office?



A: *suddenly looking alert and he peered closer at me* AAAyyyyyYYYyy??!!! You JEALOUS AH??!!


Maybe a cut-out of him also....


AKK: No I wasn't! I just think it's a tacky pick-up line. U mean u never thought she was trying to hook up with u meh?


A: yes, you are! And yes ah, I know she's trying to pick me up.


AKK: well, you could have said NO lor.


A: well, it's not everyday got chiobu want to pick me up lah. Anyway, you can tell from her looks that she probably has never been rejected outright before. scarly she turn into monster if I said sorry, I dun wan to take her pic or get her email add, then how? If got hansem boy tried to pick you up, u'd be flattered also mah.



AKK: *intrigued despite herself* so did you talk to her? How was she like?



A: Empty.



AKK: You are saying that to make me feel better.


A: No, really. She didn't know nuts about the car she was posing for.

And that summed up A's overall love for cars and all things cars....



upon further interrogation careful detecting, the office had a large noticeboard 'supposed to be filled with event pics' but had been sorely maltreated by the 80% male cohorts in the workplace. On top of pictures of company dinners and state affairs evident from his pile, there were also some 'eye-candy' contributions apart from his carshow gal.


AKK: so why did you have to take all the pics back?



A: Someone tacked a Sports Illustrated Calendar and pissed the boss. He took it down and asked us to revamp the board to a more suitable content.



I knew what that means....


AKK: Hypocrite!


A: ya lor, my fren hasn't recovered from having his calendar 'confiscated'.

So, once again, a much-ado-about-nothing.



I figured next time just ask liao, no need to pretend. Although we all like to project the worse case scenario, but seriously, there are a hundred and one reasons more that can perfectly answer that burning question.


Now, I just wish there was a Chocolate Show with lots of male models immersed in chocolate fountains and draped over chocolate sculptures.


out!!

AKK:)

Mystery solved and life goes on. Sometimes, I think women make too much out of things. But it's good to have been resolved nicely like this.

I will also support Ah Fatt's motion. And I would like the car to be a 1977 Porsche 911.

Looking forward to the pic.
