So here's what happened.

Before class started one day, I walked up to you. I'm not entirely sure what made me do it.

"Hi, Weng Sam, right? You're from Pahang, right?"

A bit forward, maybe. But you answered and we talked. Something about home, about being here, about whatever came up.

Small things happened after that.

Like that one time you told me I was reading too fast. Was I reading too fast? I genuinely didn't know but I tried to slow down.

And then that lunch where Maybank decided to betray me in public. You covered me, without making it weird. I transfered back to you obviously.

Nothing big, really.

Then, one afternoon

Class ended and it was raining. I had no umbrella so, I just walked into it.

Then you appeared beside me, umbrella in hand.

We talked the whole way to our labs. About how I'm so out of touch with uni life, how I basically live in the lab, that I don't have instagram, about your MCB.

And then you said, once you're a little free, you'd go out with me. I didn't say much but I was smiling the whole way.

A few reasons why I think this is a good idea:

1. We're both from Pahang. That's basically fate. And yes, you're already invited for Raya.

2. We both speak Japanese. I don't know what else to tell you. 最高でしょ？

3. I can make paper flower bouquets for you. Here's one I made.

Look, I know we're not that close yet.

But I'd like to change that.

Weng Sam,

Do you want to go on a date with me?

Really?! Ok ok ok. Cool. Totally cool. I'm cool.

So... what kind of date are we talking?

That's fair.

I'll leave this tab open. No pressure.

...The website will be here. 🙂

I'll make it worth your while.

よろしくお願いします 🌸
