When a smile meant and worth more than a thousand compliments..

When a smile meant and is worth more than a thousand compliments..Yes, that is how I felt on Sunday, supposedly to be an ordinary day but ending up to be one of the special days that I'll remember for a very long time...

As soon as I stepped out of the elevator, there he was smiling at me as if I'm the most beautiful girl he had ever seen and he's glad that I'm with him(I don't know if it was my imagination but that was the feeling I got from that one simple smile). I got into his van and the 1st words he said was "You look so pretty today" and then looked away blushing as if he just realised that he had said those words aloud. And me still feeling the powerful blast of shock and joy from that one smile and those words stupidly said "Huh? where got?"[Yup silly Delaila at work again, maybe i'm juz being a little confused at what is going on then hehe]. So there it was the most perfect start to that special Sunday.

We had went out that day with the intention of me shopping around for my company D & D dress. I knew it's going to be a long day of going into different shops and trying many, many clothes and I know how much he hated shopping so I was prepared for a day of his complaining and me being annoyed at his complaints. But surprisingly, the absolute opposite happened. Each time I ask him how the dress looked on me, he would really look at me and answer instead of the usual "you look ok lah..just buy the dress and go". The shopping experience became more fun cause I did not feel the guilt and annoyance that I normally feel when I'm out shopping with him and with him involved in the shopping, I think I tried more clothes that I intended to cause he keeps giving me clothes to try. This is the 1st time I had so much fun shopping with him. Actually he told me that he is quite disappointed that I did not buy the dress of his choice which does not look like a 60's dress at all[the theme for my D & D].His choice of dress make me look more like a japanese doll[a top with a super short ballerina-like skirt]. I jokingly told him that the purpose of this shopping is to find a 60's style dress for my D & D not to find the dress of his fantasy hehe...He smiled and replied but it is not wrong to dream right and you look so cute in that dress. He even offered to buy that dress for me[which is again another 1st] but I declined as at time I was feeling really weird cause he's behaving totally out of character. I finally found the dress that I liked and it does resembled a 60's dress so I bought it.

After the shopping, we decided to buy a drink and sit somewhere to talk. We end up sitting at the cinema where they are showing the movies trailers and we had an interesting talk about James Bond ;)[Can't get into details here cause it will be way too long for this post]

After finishing our drink, I had to go to the restroom and when I came out of the restroom. He gave me a bag and told me that its for me[again he is behaving totally out of character, he have never bought me anything except on special occasion like aniversary or birthdays].

Stupidly again I asked:

Me: "What's this?"
Him: "Something for you"
Me: "Huh?What for?"
Him: "hmm I thought of you when I saw it so I decided to buy it for you"

Guess what he bought for me? A mug that have these words written on it "I'm not stubborn. My way is just better".[This is the argument that I'll always use when he tells me that I'm being stubborn]

Him: "So you like it?"
Me: "I don't know..ok lah"[Oh my god how stupid can I be]
Him(looking disappointed): "Oh okay"
Him:"Come let me carry your things"
Me:"Huh?"[I'm so shocked that I just let him carry my things and follow him with a dopey smile on my face. I can tell you truthfully that throughout my relationship with him, he had never ever offered to carry my things.]

He convinced me to watch a movie which I was relucted to watch but it actually turned out to be a good movie. And after the movie, as usual we had dinner and talked about the movie.[Which part I/he liked the best and have much impact on us etc..]

It was only when I had reached home, it started to sink in that something special had happened. That my ordinary sunday had turned extra-ordinary and that it is possible to fall for someone all over again.

And Guess what? I'm going to have this dopey smile on my face for this whole week and even longer I think even though its the 1st week of the month[My busiest time at work] cause nothing can beat the joy that I'm feeling right now. Just PURE BLISS :D



P/S: Sorry for the super long post and lots of details that might not interest you but I just felt I need to capture the feelings that I felt and have it written down so that I could read it again and again and feel like it happened just yesterday ;)
