A Lovely and Thoughtful Surprise

I have been tired of blogging lately, but this definitely warrant a need for blogging.

While at work today, I was chatting with mr tam and mr tam decided to meet me for dinner as I couldnt spend time with him this weekend. I would be spending this weekend with some of my run mates in Batam.

Suddenly I remembered that I had to change money for my trip. I couldnt quite remember if Batam belongs to Malaysia or Indonesia, thus I had to ask mr tam," Where is Batam??" And of course mr tam proceeded to answer my stupid question patiently.

At 5ish, mr tam said that he was leaving his house to pick me up from client's place.

At 6.15, he msged me to tell me that he was going to be late.

At 6.40 when I left office, he called me to say that there is a massive jam at Chinatown. At that moment, I was thinking, "Why is he at Chinatown?' But after thinking twice, I thought that most prob mr tam is being forgetful again, took a wrong turn and landed up in Chinatown.

mr tam reached at around 6.50pm. While chatting with mr tam, I was worried about whether I had time to exchange money.

Me: Your father have? (mr tam's father works in indonesia)

mr tam: Nope.

Me: Maybe I should ask my mum to help me change.

mr tam: Huh? U asked her to change already?

Me: No, not yet. You think 100 enough?

mr tam: Think change 150 better. (started smiling to himself. Tried to question him about it, and he argued that he didn)

I got a little suspicious then, started to suspect if he had helped me to change already. But I brush the thoughts away, thinking that it was impossible for him to leave his house at 6pm, rush to change money, and come to pick me up at 6.50pm.

Then he signalled to tell me that he had a secret to tell.

"其实我已经帮你换了。"

If u know mr tam well enough, he doesnt plan surprises usually. But this came as a nice and rare surprise from him!
