Om Shanti

This morning before I left for work, I noticed that Kyle’s mobile phone was still plugged. He apparently left it to charge overnight. Being the electricity-saver that I am, I turned of the outlet’s switch, which caused his phone’s screen to light up. I was pleasantly surprised with what I saw. It was a picture of me taken on one of our special 23 celebrations, set as wallpaper. It was so out of character for him! The only times his wallpaper is set to my picture is when I get bored, toy around with is stuff and tease him by setting a picture of me as his wallpaper.

So there it was. Me on his phone’s screen, we have always been the less demonstrative couple. This might have been caused by the years apart and starting off our relationship as really3x good friends. It was so unexpected, but I couldn’t help but smile when I saw it. I had gone through the whole day thinking about it and it got me excited about the wedding even more. If you see surprising things like this in the future, it would be fun.

I got home to day to a usual scene. I turn the key, open the door, and take my shoes off, then my towel slippers on. I walk towards the living room as I ask, “Kita pa na abot? (Are we the only ones who’ve arrived?)” And Kyle takes his eyes off the screen off his laptop a bit and says, “Yup, but Alfon and Razid won’t be eating here.” (This means Alfon & Kim and Razid & Tonet are not having dinner at home.)

Then I went to the kitchen, grabbed a bite to eat, then sat across Kyle in the living room. I said, “Bibs, you set my picture as your wallpaper lagi, uuuuuy!” And I laughed, expecting him to joke about by saying something like “Of course!” making it sound like it was out of spite, but you know he really meant it. But noooooo…What actually happened was this…

Kyle said, “Ah yeah, you remember I told you about the meeting we had? Yan took my phone and he played with it, changing the settings and stuff. (Yan by the way, is the name of his boss)”

And in my head I went, “Alrighty then…oh well, at least it got me through the day! ”

Shortly after telling him, the whole day I was thinking about how it was so out of character for him to do, and it amused me (Hay, I know him too well!), I came up to my room to blogaboo about it hehehe!
