A Date with Only a Few Money in our Pockets
Today is one of my most awaited days this sembreak. Today, I pictured out that Kim and I will be very busy of the things I planned to do. Last night, I scribbled on my notebook the places to go and things to buy. Little did I know that what I enthusiastically planned the night before will not be followed.
I admit it. I'm not a fan of spontaneous and unplanned dates. So initially, I was mad and frustrated.
6:30 AM, I went to withdraw. It's the 29th so I know it's payday. I had to get cash since I don't have already. (I'm quite a spender.) I only got 150 in my wallet. When I checked, I literally said the f word. And I think, you know what news I got early in this morning.
My mind really said as I trudged back to the place where Kim is waiting, "How can I go to Manila with the money I only have?" (Btw, Kim's also short this day 'cause he has a kind heart :P And I don't have to elaborate on that...) I informed Kim of the great news I had. I was thinking he would cancel our plans.. But he said we will push through with it.
In the bus, we counted how much combined money we have. I got 150 (bills) and 70 (coins). He had 70 (bills) and 100+ (coins). I was worried if we can still go home with the amount of moolah we have. But as usual, Kim is always looking at the brighter side..He said we CAN. :)
First stop: PRC. I need to get my license 'cause supposedly I need to claim it after three months. I applied for my license last May. Kim and I only stayed there for I guess one hour. Then off we go.
Second stop: St. Thomas Square. We went there to check if I have cash already. None. So we decided to go home.
We planned to ride a bus in UN. As the jeepney stopped in front of Luneta Park, Kim grabbed my hand and said we could have a date in Luneta. *blushed* So, instead of going straight home, we had our third stop.
Third stop: Luneta Park. Our date was more of walking. We checked the Philippine Map making funny comments about the abbreviated word Is. (I thought there's a certain place as, I can't recall the name *First word* and then Is) Kim said it was *First Name* Island. :) Oohh. But I know the abbreviated form of island, it's just that the one there in Luneta didn't have period at the end. :(
Since I get tired easily, I ask if we could just sit. We talked about things; made "pacute" with each other; took picture.
Fourth stop: Mang Inasal. I was really tired (maybe because of the humid weather) plus hungry. So Kim ordered, paying a lot of coins to the cashier. At least we still got money. Hahaha.
One thing I learned today is we really don't need a huge amount of cash just to enjoy a date. We just need each other's company; the laughter, teasing, kisses and hugs.
Tomorrow, we are off to Tagaytay to spread love... :)
