So now it has become a norm, me meeting Guna every Saturday, each time he books out from camp. Today was no exception. We were going to the undo-fied Sun Plaza in Sembawang for lunch and proceed on to Orchard afterwards or so I thought until I received his call while I was on my way.

"Hey, I just got back home. Haven't unpacked, haven't taken my shower, haven't done anything. Think I'll be late. Could u come over to my place first, and then we'll leave together?'

And I was like " What? NO! I am not coming over when no one is ard and u know that. Are you kidding me?"

He replies, slightly irritated at the lack of my ability to understand simple things "For heaven's sake, I know that! I too will not call you over if no one was at home. My mum and aunt are ard and they wanted to see you. In fact, it was them who asked u to come over and I thought since I was gonna be late, u might as well come up first instead of loitering ard in Sembawang alone. So u coming?"

And so I went over. His mum and aunt (who I'm meeting for the 2nd time) engaged in a conversation with me that started at 3 and never stopped till the clock struck 6:15pm. But really, I had fun with them and for a moment, I didn't even realise that Guna was missing all these while until got up to look for him. That boy was fast asleep in his room. Haha, tired from all the training I guess so I let him sleep while I kept myself occupied with 2 of his kutty cousins, Rooben and Theresa. Such adorable kids. Finally the pig woke up at ard 7 plus and apologised profusely fo abandoning me but I was really ok cos both his mum and aunt were great company, and not forgetting the cousins . For that split second, I thought marrying into that family wasn't such a bad thing after all. Not that I had thought it wld have been bad in the first place. Hmmm, just a random thought. Yeah, okok I know. I haven't even said 'yes' to him but here I was talking about marriage. But hey, it's always good to consider the whole package, isn't it? The in-laws, extended family and all...

Somehow, I get along better with Guna's family then Senthil's. Over at Senthil's side, his mum considered me as a threat. She saw me as an intruder who was trying to steal her son away from her. She never really let me into her heart and always kept me at arm's length but here, in Guna's case - everything is just the opposite. The mum calls me much often than Guna does, she asks me if the both of us are getting along fine, she jokes abt when I'm gonna say 'yes' to Guna, she includes me in all family functions, she introduces me to all the members in the family, she asks me if I wanna follow her shopping once in a while, she never fails to tell me that I'd make a good daughter-in-law if I ever married her son, she calls to ask me where Guna is, she cares abt me. But above all, she treats me like her own daughter. Maybe that's the difference btw Senthil's mum and her... She never really treated me as part of her family. I was a stranger and will always be one. Sigh.....

Oh well, it's all over now. What's the use of talking about it, right? At about 8 plus, Guna and I headed down to Causeway Point for diner and he sent me back home after tht. Hmmmm, this side of him I never knew when we were friends. It's strange isn't it? The way people react when they start falling for that person..
