Falling For The Man I Married

Chapter 14: The woman from his past

Earlier this morning, I got a call from my three best friends-slash- managers. Noelle, George and Arielle. Well not actually from all of them, it's just Noelle... they wanted me to go to the mall for shopping, and shopping and non-stop shopping.

It's Saturday today, and it's supposed to be my 'no work', 'no stress', 'no waking up early' and 'no rolling my eyes' day. See? even rolling my eyes is included to this early moment. I usually do that 'mentally' in the office when I am in front of my jerk of a boss and sometimes in front of him when I know he's not looking.

But you know... thanks to these three girl-friends of mine, I had to wake up early, take a bath early and get ready for their non-stop pulling there, and everywhere. As if I have a choice.

Uhm.. have I told you I am a fan of shorts? Especially denim shorts. And that's what I chose to wear today, blue denim shorts with white spaghetti strapped-top. I just paired it with my nude flat-sandals and very light makeup.

After checking myself in the mirror for I don't know how many times since this morning ( but I promise this would be the last time )... I winked at myself.

"Tsk.tsk.tsk. Why am I so beautiful?" I asked my reflection as I shook my head.

Does it sound like I'm lifting my chair again? Well, if I wouldn't tell myself first, then who would it be? My mom? Of course, she will, she's my mother. But since she's not here, let me take her job for a while and tell myself that I'm beautiful.

"Good morning, Jamie." I greeted my flat-mate when I found her in the living room.

"Wow! Is that the new version of you, Madi, getting up early on Saturday morning?"

She asked smiling after putting down her cup of tea. Argh! I bit my bottom lip... I hate tea. As much as I hate mornings, I also hate tea. Well, I don't literally hate it... it's just not my favourite.

"No. You know I hate mornings." I took my favourite mug and poured it with coffee from the coffee maker.

"Yeah, so.. where are you going?"

"Uhm.. hanging out with friends." I shrugged.

"Wow, that's great."

"Do you wanna join us?" I asked as I put some cream and sugar.
