Next up is a recap on a meeting that I missed out mentioning.. Pauline.

Turning back time to the week before I met Mabel, there was a meeting with Pauline.

Pauline had texted me plenty on this guy she liked and he liked her, according to him. I asked her about whether he had taken any actions to make it official. Basically, he is interested but taking it slow and no show of commitment.

I told her it's probably not a good idea to spend too much time on him as he is showing the signs of what almost every other guy is doing in dating apps. Casting the net to catch as many fish as they can, picking out and forever picking. You never know when you are really their priority. But it's the chance you're taking.

Pauline showed up in a nice office attire. A little timid looking.

==

Description of Pauline:

Pauline had long straight hair to her elbow, no particular features on her face except her eyes were larger than average. Her body was slim type with a little more flesh as she doesn't work out very often. She has a humble chest size of about B-cup. Thin legs, usually wears a dress or skirt to just above her knee. Typical office lady type with a slightly shy appearance. Quite a careless girl in her behaviour.

==

We went to have some Ramen at Bugis where she started recounting..

...

Pauline: He's been texting me a lot at the start, but now it's lesser and lesser. What do you think..?

M: To be frank, on the dating app, you have to assume everyone is talking to more than one potential date.

Pauline: But we already met a couple of times.. he asked me out for movie and dinner dates..

M: That doesn't mean a thing. It could be just courtship.

Pauline: He also had a .. weird request actually..

M: What did he ask for?

Pauline: Eh.. wait.. I show you on the phone -She looked nervous

M: Okay.. show me?

Pauline showed me her conversation with Jake.

[Snippet Conversation between Pauline and Jake]

M: Is he looking for product testing? Free trial? If not satisfied, can return within 30 days? -With some tone of annoyance

Pauline: Erm.. no.. But.. if I don't go, what if he hates me..

M: I don't know about you, I don't think it's such a good idea, the way he texts is a little weird. He says he likes you but doesn't make things official, asks for what couples do.

Pauline: I thought can just try ma..

M: Up to you, you're an adult too, if you think it's okay.

Pauline: Ok.. I think about it first la.. let's eat~

The conversation for the rest of the night was mostly about me asking her to think carefully if that's what she wants, go ahead.

Pauline was clearly upset since she's been single for most parts of her life as she's an introvert. She never really had the kind of attention until dating apps. Pretty much inexperienced.

Looking back, it seems like I managed to enter into a 'sister' zone of girls and close 'brother' zone of guys as I seem to get connected with people at a different level sometimes. Of everyone, the most deeply connected with me was Mabel because of the way we shared and talked about things we were a totally open channel with no filters.

[Lokal]

The weekend went by, I checked with Mabel eagerly: So how was your date with Henry!

Mabel: You free now?

M: Yeah why? -Phone call came

Mabel told me that Henry cancelled on her saying he has to fly for a business trip the night before, so the next time they meet will be for Jay Chou's concert, they will meet in the morning have a full day out together.

Mabel was disappointed and sad but managed to get one of her girlfriends to accompany her to the movie instead.

Hearing that she had someone to console her, everything's good so let her be.

Upcoming dinner with Xuan Xuan..

==

This time we're meeting near her office at Marina Bay.

Xuan Xuan showed up in this body-hugging dress. It was stunning, despite her somewhat flat chest, it looked really good. It showed her curves around her bum very well and the way she let her hair down, was absolutely stunning. Very simple eye liner makeup. She smelled fresh yet again. Her slender body was like what you'd see in a model except she wasn't as tall even after wearing heels.


Xuan Xuan approached me with a smile: Let's go!

M: Yeah I think it's that way, I've never tried that restaurant.

Nude Seafood restaurant. It was really good. WAS.

Xuan: The fish is amazing! I really like this one!

M: Yeah everything's pretty good except for the Pasta.

Xuan: Hur.. I think you have too atas tastebuds.

M: Okay fine, I just didn't think the Pasta was worth being the way it tastes.

We talked mostly about her work, how stressed she was with her team shifting about. Deadlines to catch. She works in the bank by the way.


While talking, I couldn't help but to accidentally glance at the thin straps on her dress, the shape of her shoulders the V-cut down to her chest. It was very tempting to stare..


*I wonder if her nipples would be very sensitive.. STOP focus on the conversation.

We slowly walked along the Marina Bay stretch after dinner to digest it off. There was a couple of seats where you could rest and lay down.

Xuan: I'm tired, can we take a seat or lay down for a little, my heels are hurting me..

M: Yeah sure, let's take a seat -I had nothing much to do anyway

Xuan Xuan proceeded to take off her heels while standing, she bent forward, a tiny gap formed between her dress and her boobs.. It was a little dark but I saw the magic bra.. It was a moment of excitement and anguish. After she put her heels aside, she laid down and let out a sigh

Xuan: Haa.... feels so good..

We had a short moment of silence.. *If only we were laying down on the hotel bed..

M: Sigh.. -At my weakness in the mind

Xuan: What's wrong?

M: Oh nothing much, just some work stuff.. -Which was true, I had a couple of tricky ones to handle at the point

Xuan: You know.. my ex-boyfriends were all so manipulative.. my world was about them, it was so hard to be myself.

M: Hopefully the next one gets better for you

Xuan: I'm not sure anymore.. the last few guys who chased me, I found out that they were attached.

M: I'm sure there's somebody that you can find.. eventually.


I couldn't help but to accidentally drift off occasionally fantasizing about her legs and if she had sensitive nipples.. an uncomfortable bulge formed.. I had to turn sideways to hide it.


Xuan: Do you think there are decent guys around? Like you?

M: Erm.. Well, I'm not as nice as you think.

Xuan: Why? You're quite a nice guy.. your future girlfriend will be pretty lucky

M: Ha.. you think too highly of me, I'm just like every other guy.

Xuan: Hmm really? -Looking unimpressed

Xuan: Sigh.. maybe it's better to stay single


The night went on pretty quietly since the mood was a little off for both of us till we parted each taking a grab or uber home. Both of us left each other with much to think about.. Maybe much more so for me..

Nothing really eventful really happened meanwhile, until the following week..

It's the next morning after Jay Chou's concert. I dropped Mabel a text to check on her.

[Text]

M: Hey Mabel, how was the concert? You and Henry had a full day's date, you must be head over heels no?

.. few hours

After awhile more of no reply from Mabel, I had a bad feeling.

M: Hey you okay? Everything alright?

Mabel: Yeah. I just woke up.. -It was 1130am, she called me...

...

Mabel didn't go to the concert. She was supposed to meet Henry at 10am for breakfast, go for an art gallery exhibition, take a light tea break then head to the concert and have supper together.. if everything went as planned.

What actually happened was Henry didn't reply her texts until 5pm, saying he is sorry, he had a lot to drink the previous day because of a friend's birthday, had a headache, only woke up and had to send his dad to the airport. *Bullshit. What bullshit. If you had any thoughts to go out with her, you would have avoided drinking so much, next your dad would have been able to go to the airport if you booked him a cab.

I felt bad for what happened to Mabel. It was me, always edging her to go after Henry, putting suggestions in her head, giving her the tickets that resulted in what happened. I felt sad for her. It was a strange feeling.

Mabel: Are you free later..? I need some coffee.

M: Do you need some bagels too?

Mabel: Fuck you, don't remind me. But I will take some bagels, they better be good or you will be in deep shit. * This girl is serious..

M: Meet you at Tanjong Pagar at 1pm? Drop you the postal code here..

Mabel: Okay.. see you. Gonna shower and go over. Thanks Mark.

==

1pm - Mabel as always, nowhere to be seen.

Dropped her a text: So, what time are you reaching?

Mabel voice message: "I am on the waaay, give me a break okay, I'm just looking for parking lot."


115pm - Mabel showed up in a bunned up hair, white top which is semi thick yet soft looking that just barely covers the top of the skirt she's wearing. Her skirt had pleats was that covers her Knees. Not a T Shirt for sure. This time you could barely see the outline of her undergarments. Wearing flats. Good. Almost like she's prepared for a date.


We had to queue a little to place the orders for bagels and a coffee plus avocado smoothie. They serve some really mean delicious bagels.

Mabel: OMG THIS IS SO GOOD.. -Seeing the way she brightened up with food was a relief

M: Glad you like it, otherwise I will be in deep shit.

Mabel: Lucky these are good -She munched down hungrily

Sipped her coffee, tried some of my Avocado shake..

Mabel: This is amazing too! The Avocado is so gao and not sweet, I like! (Avocado is so thick)

M: So how can I help you? Rest assured everything discussed here today will be kept private and confidential.

Mabel: Haauk yuuu.. -She wasn't done munching on her bagel that she swapped half with me. Proceeded to flick a sesame seed at me. I responded with just an eye roll and smile

M: Okay.. talk when you're done eating.

Mabel: Mhhmhmm...


She finished eating finally and started recounting what happened with Henry. They have met quite a number of times, drinking late at night, he didn't send her home but kept up with texting her and meeting her subsequently about once a week. There was no official indication he was into her based on what she told me. But if he was willing to initiate conversations and entertain her, he should be sufficiently interested.

She had a bad feeling on the day they were supposed to meet. Said that fortunately she didn't head out to where they were supposed to meet. She waited at home, watched some drama. Until she received Henry's text. She was very annoyed during. I could see from the way she recounted her expressions were amusing. She passed her siblings the tickets for them to go in her place, they changed their weekend plans, it was Jay Chou, who would miss it?


She went on and on, I kept silent and listened. Finally we reached the point where she was done and quietly sipped her coffee. There was some moment of silence..
