Touching story...
DOLCE VITA
Part 1
I met her on the net, how? I can't remember. but it seems to me that it is this 'little theory' which I declared in the cyberspace that caught her attention.
If I have a million dollars, I would buy a house. do I have a
million? No. That's why I don't have a house.
If I have wings, I can fly. do I have wings? No. so I can never
fly.
If all the waters are drawn out of Pacific Ocean, but it still
can't put off the flame of love between us. Can all the waters of
Pacific Ocean be drawn off? No. That's why I don't love you.
That's me, a typical science student. First you come up with an assumption, then you fit a suitable conclusion. If the proposed assumption doesn't stand at all, then everything is just bullshit. I guess this is what they call 'unromantic'. But she is an exception. she actually mailed me and said that I am an 'interesting' person.
'Interesting'? What a word to use on me, it's like using 'faithful' on Mr. Clinton. I thought this girl must be a low-IQ organism, or suffering from serious brain damage. Anyway, her nick doesn't seems so bad -FLYINDANCE- that's quite a unique one. But I was warning myself: hello, this is the virtual world of Internet. who knows what might be lurking behind a beautiful nick. Talking from experience, most of the time it will be a 'dinosaur' in disguise. The only differences will be whether it is a carnivore or a herbivore but, I know she is way different from a 'dinosaurÂ’, she is special. So I guess itÂ’s time for the appearance of FlyNDance.
Ever since she mailed to tell me that I am 'interesting', I was always wishing to meet her in AJCRR. Too bad, lady luck was just not on my side. So I can only reply her letter to tell her that I will start to train myself to become an 'interesting' person, just to show that she is far-sighted. She replied my reply, I replied her reply to my reply, she again replied my reply to her reply blah blah blah... Oh no, I just started a chain-reaction. Actually what interested me the most is
this paragraph she wrote in one of the mails....
'I dance swiftly, amidst the crowd.
Your glance on me be it surprise,
be it admiration, it ain't going to stop my rhythm.
Because it's not your glance that made me dance,
it's my heart of youth.'
I simply cannot relate this girl to any of the 'dinosaurs'. But if she really is a dinosaur, I am willing to let her have her fill. Tye, my best pal unfortunately, noticed my little affair with FlyNDance, and has been perpetually warning me about this. "HELLO! You don't even know what she looks like, why take the risk?? Maybe 'she' is a guy!" I can't blame Tye for his ignorance. Ever since he was dumped by Sally in Secondary 4, he has become a renowned 'playboy'.
As the saying goes: "Once bitten, Twice shy".
In this case, after Tye was bitten, he has mastered the art of skinning snakes alive, and make them into soup. But he got all the factors to be a playboy, I always think he is the 19 year-old version of Brad Pitt. Tall, handsome and got this tongue that causes diabetes in every women he targets. I don't think he can even remember how many girlfriends he has had. I went online that night, log onto channel AJCRR and yes! She is there. Before I can get over the surprise and the daze, she sent me a message.
"Hey slorr, so late liao haven't sleep ah?"
Now what? Now what? Ok ok, I had to calm down first. I swallowed hard on my saliva, took a few deep breath.
Now where is that Tye when I needed him most at such crucial moment, somebody to tell me what to say to her. How am I going to attract her with my pathetic humor which has gone stale.
"Slorr, me in a foul mood today. Can't sleep, you leh?"
MOTHER'S (direct translation to chinese), what slorr slorr...
Now when I read it twice in a row, I am beginning to feel disgusted in that nick Tye gave me. Tye said that: "Who knows, it might attract some innocent gals in talking to you."
"I am not feeling very good too. So let's sad together."
Finally squeezed a sentence out, but I can already feel droplets of sweat forming on my forehead. Actually I am not in a bad mood, I just wanna follow up her topic that's all.
And if she ask for the reason for my feeling down, I can say:
"Since you are feeling down, how can I ever be happy?"
I know it sounds mushy, but Tye said: "MUSHINESS IS THE FUNDAMENTAL TO ALL COURTSHIP."
And gals are a very weird species, they trust their ears far more than their eyes. So instead of doing 10 things to impress her, why not just say a sentence to move her.
"Ok, but you haven't greet me leh."
DAMNIT!.. how can I forget simple manners to gals. To think they
call me 'MR COURTEOUS' in school.
If this thing ever leaks out in school, I would lose all my female fans.
"Nice to meet you, miss long-hair."
"I've been wishing that she's keeping long hair.
Tye said that:
"FlyNDance... hmm.. she would either be long-haired or a
desperado, 'COs when gals dance, only 2 parts of them may fly: hair
and skirt. So if she doesn't has long hair, that means her skirt
flies when she dances, AH-HA!!.. this has a certain sexual hint in
it...haha.."
"Eh? How you know I got long hair?"
BINGO! Heaven is on my side this time. It goes to prove that she
is not a DESPERADO. Yes!
"Not only that, I also know you seldom wear skirt."
I increased the stake, if I am correct this time, peace on earth
forever.
"Err... I guess you are right lor. But how you know one?"
"Just guess."
"Ok lor. Hey slorr, tell you what, me tired liao, you coming online tomorrow morning?"
"Ya, why??"
"Please please please say the you coming too, if not I am going to kill myself for letting you go tonight. I'll see ya tomorrow at 10 am then. Good night."
"Er.. should be today at 10 am.. ok.. good night too."
I just blurted out a last sentence ....Offline.
Suddenly I was so impressed by my performance just now. But is the season of spring really arriving for me??
I wish.
