My Sweet Lovely Tigress,
It was early Saturday morning at 5.30am that I awoke from my restless sleep… you see, all night I was tossing and turning and my dreams were filled with romantic dreams/visions of us together… I could see in my mind’s eye; us together entwined in a passionate embrace, exchanging longing kisses which were long belated… lying on my bed, it felt so real that at last my dreams had come true… that my yearning for you would be fulfilled… With my eyes closed, I whispered a secret prayer that our meeting would be the tender romantic tryst that I had so fervently hoped for…. “sigh”
Easing the car out of the driveway, I headed off into the highway, the smell of the fresh Saturday morning so clean and crisp and fortified with some fisherman’s friends mints and a bottle of mineral water, I resolutely determined that I would meet you, at whatever the cost; because for me – this was the only time I would have left to develop a romantic relationship with you as the CSU masters degree course was coming to its completion.
Looking back now, my decision to change to the “General stream” because I wanted to be with you was the right decision; at the time, I wanted you so much that if you changed to any stream, I would have followed you (though I would not have told you so at that time). “smiles”
Driving through the green verdant hills dotting the landscape leading to Kuantan; my mind was occupied with many things like “should I buy you a bouquet of roses?” , “should we have drinks first?” or “maybe, swimming first would be a good idea?”. I wanted so much to pleasantly sweep you off your feet and ensure that your experience in Kuantan would be wonderful that the miles just melted away as I drove feverishly and overtook many cars in my efforts to reach as early as possible…
Reaching the town of Kuantan, I felt a sense of homecoming because I have come to love this quiet idyllic town with its breezy romantic windswept beaches dotted with lush palm trees and its quaint hawkers stalls with delicious and reasonable wares… I picked up my hand phone and tried calling you but the lines were unclear so I tried sending you a few sms. My heart beat erratically as I kept looking at my hand phone; waiting in anticipation for your reply… “sigh”
Moments later, I was exhilarated when I read your sms, saying that you too had arrived and that soon, we would meet. Turning into the Hyatt Kuantan driveway, I turned down my car’s side window and was thrilled to feel the soft sea breeze caressing the side of my face and to savor the view of the quiet romantic beach with multitudes of wavering fronds from the coconut trees, all moving in unison with the afternoon sea breeze.
Parking the car, I felt slightly hungry but my longing for you was even more stronger and I thought to myself that I must take things one at a time so I decided to have a meal at McDonald’s to quell my immediate needs so that I could satisfy our desires better. “wink wink”
