Thursday night with Christina
I was to meet Shuing after work for gym at 8ish, so I stayed back, and Christina was the only other one on the floor. She messaged me asking what time I was staying till, and then said something like she was so tired. I didn't reply, but when I got hungry I went to her room and said I was going to the supermarket to get something to eat and asked if she wanted me to get her anything.
She said yes so I went and gave her a call when I was at the pasta section. There was no pasta, and so she had a hard time deciding between the curry and the lasagna , but went with the curry in the end.
When I returned to the office, we were both in the kitchen preparing our meals. It struck me as a bit odd that she kept asking me how to do it. I mean, you peel off the plastic, chuck it in the microwave and press a minute. Or was she playing dumb?
We talked about her cooking when she was married, and she mentioned that her husband expected her to clean as well. I thought it interesting that while she said that, I was putting some old dishes into the dishwasher and putting a tablet in to start the wash.
Ummm...nice guy right here. Hello?
She said that wasn't the reason they separated. I was curious to ask, but refrained.
After I heated mine, she said to go eat in the conference room. As I placed my meal on the table and took a seat, I had a flash of thought: would this be what it was like if we were married? That thought hit me so hard, I couldn't think of anything to say, so there was a bit of silence. We ate at the table in silence. Hello? That's marriage isn't it???
Anyway, we started talking about work, and I thought about making her laugh by telling her about the Chris Rock videos, but that didn't really get off.
After we ate we went back to our rooms to work. I flicked through some materials for my sentence matter the next day, and then left the office to get to the gym at 8pm.
I couldn't find Shuing, so I started my workout, and finished it before I saw him. I stayed with him as I took him through a workout with weights, and we talked about work, the economy (my favourite thing to do is picking his brains about this) and a bit about G.
After that, I got the gambling bug. I had transferred money from my savings account to my normal account to pay off my credit card the next day. I was very tempted to use a bit of this for the casino. But first, I had to get changed.
Christina had said she would be working till midnight, but I wondered if she may have given up and gone home. So I went back to the office and snuck in. I didn't want to alarm her of my presence in case she was there, so I went to level 10 and walked up. Stupidly, I didn't realise that the fire exit door was right outside her room. I opened it and saw the lights were on, then closed the door which made a loud slamming noise. She would've heard that fo sho.
So I quickly rushed out of there, catching the lift from level 10 and then leaving the building. I knew she didn't see me, but my paranoia wondered if she had. She was probably scared as hell having heard the door slam shut and yet not seeing anyone around.
Oh god, how the hell would I explain this if she ever asked and the CCTV footage showed me being there?
