Friday the 13th (today!)

Am sure most of us have seen the horrow flick 'Friday the 13th'. If anyone notice today is Friday the 13th. Hope nothing horror or brutal happens tonight. Speaking of which, I have been looking forward to tonight.

My first outing, and by that I mean an outing with the opposite sex, since my break-up. I don't want to call it a date because its not. Its just a movie night out. 'A' and I are going to watch '2012' at The Mall, the dooms-day movie everyone's talking about right now. We got the tickets already and I do understand on this system of purchasing your tickets at least a day before the show. New movies are bound to have a full house.

When I was booking for the tickets last Monday over the phone, I only managed to get the best seats for today when the movie has already started its screening yesterday. The ticket-guy at the end of the line said that I have to come to the Cineplex and buy the ticket at least by Thursday. He even encouraged me to pay for the tickets that Monday. Well, I didn't as I was kinda busy the past few days with workload. I bought the ticket yesterday.

When I was at the counter to pay for the tickets, I saw almost all the seats have either been purchased or booked, even the front rows where you bet you will be straining your neck watching the silver screen from those seatings. It look like it will be a full house tonight. Not a problem for me as long as the audience have the 'movie-etiqutte', like noise-free atmosphere.

Come to think of this, I hope I wont crash into X as I know he is a movie-goer and will normally see a movie on the second day of the screening rather than on the opening day. We love, or loved watching the movies, either its my treat or his, usually him. If the movie is really good, we watch, or watched it twice. The Transformers movies, Twilight, Slumdog Millionaire, those hot movies. Now, why am I thinking of him now? :(

I should think of 'A' now. 'A' is witty and cute. He doesnt like it when I call him cute because he said grown-up guys are not cute, the term's more for a baby. I dont care really...hehe...because I think he is really cute, just like the Korean or Japanese pop stars and I really think he is actually enjoying it when I call him cute.

I met 'A' through a mutual friend a couple of years back. He was having a relationship problem at that time. I dont really know how to deal with it, I mean he's a guy. If its my girl friends I usually know how to talk the talk. He was alone most of the time and a few months after we met, he suddenly text me to meet up. I couldn't because I was with 'X' already and I didn't want to start a WWIII or even a nuclear war with 'X' knowing his history of jealousy.

That was the only text I received from 'A'. Last month, this mutual friend of ours asked if we can all meet up and I was already breaking up with 'X' at that time though it was unofficial. I wasnt up to meeting or going out but my friend dragged me and even scolded me for letting my heart ruled my brain. He said I should go out and do 1,001 things so I would stop feeling sorry for myself. He was right. I met them up and 'A' was or is, still single; after all these years?

The spark was still there, I could see from his eyes when we met again. He asked for my number because (obviously) he lost mine. I was thinking he might have deleted it after that only text from him those years ago but as a good-will gesture I gave my number. I dont know why. He gave his and I noticed its a new number but I didnt say a word but just thanked him.

Last Monday morning, he finally text me and asked if we could talk. I replied yes. So he called me albeit briefly as he was on his way to work (and so was I). He asked if we could go out for coffee or movie sometime and I straight away said yes. Hehe..I am excited now thinking of that call as I type. So this movie night tonight is just an outing for 'A' and I. I dont want to expect miracles or anything. I just hope that I would get over 'X' asap and get him out of my system. 'X' can be intoxicating at times. I hope 'A' would understand this. It's just too early for a relationship. Now, what should I wear tonight?
