I saw a girl sitting alone before class began.
I've not talked to her this semester, but I read her tumblr.
I went to sit next to her.
I told her I knew what was going on.
I told her I feel her pain.
And gave her half a hug before I left.
-:-
I sat next to Yaoqi in class.
I asked DDGG next to me a question even girls felt shy to ask her.
I wanted to type it here, but you'll misunderstand.
I had lunch, tea, and dinner within the span of 4 hours today.
Each at a different place, each with a different girl.
Lunch at BK, only I ate.
Tea at Ben and Jerry's. She paid.
Celeste walked past as I had dinner at the deck with another girl.
Celeste commented that she's been bumping into me a lot lately.
I asked her to stop stalking me.
-:-
I walked through one of the biggest LTs today in pitch darkness just because the steps were glowing, like something right out of star wars. And because a girl walked the path some time before me... and I have a tendency of following people into the dark.
I knelt down on the crowded LRT platform and prayed a Hallelujah.
Then I looked up and around at people for the first time in a while.
In the train, I could count the number of people not using their phones with one hand.
I don't think anyone saw how I walked out of the train in slow motion, descended down the stairs and spun round at the bottom, because they were all walking and using their phones the way I used to do when I was their age. No sorry, when I was Ryan Toh's age.
