Arnold and Timmy

It was our moment. We were flirting through the traffic as Timmy drove me to my haven. These past few days, it seems that the friendship part was slowly taking it's toll - to the extent that the more we see each other, the more we get to define the the more you hate the more you love part.

Suddenly it became no big deal to everyone. Of course, Hero was the most thrilled as soon as he found out that everything works well with his bestfriend and his sister. Enyah was also sharing her own version of I knew it! I told you, you're a match made in heaven! Stuffs. And Arnold? Well, he was taking things quite differently.

He was really busy these days. I think one of the biggest projects for the company was delicately assigned to their department, and because of that they need to work hard and test the software meticulously.

Speaking for how Arnold takes this responsibility, he just goes home to take a bath and change clothes. Like he was supposed to keep an eye to this project for 18 hours and rest for 2 hours or whatever. When he goes home, it's as if he really needs sleep but instead of sleeping for more hours... he still goes online and research or test the software for more errors.

I seldom check him when he's in the office, to make sure that he was eating on time or between hours. I know that his job was really logical and time consuming, detail-oriented and needs tons and tons of patience, - which is somehow hazardous to his health. I know it's stressful but sometimes, I can't help it. He needs to rest and eat on time. Otherwise he will get ill and he will be the cause of delay.

The bottomline is... Ever since he became busy with work, we rarely fight or argue about stuffs. And the worst part is that, I miss it. But I know and I understand that this project makes Arnold more mature and responsible.

Hmmm.. Do I really sound like the boy's mom? Cause c'mon! Whenever I open this to Enyah, Hero and Timmy, all they can say about it is that I sound like Arnold's mom. How could that be so possible? As a matter of fact, I haven't heard of his mom since the act and I think they were just guessing on how his mom reacts to his busy schedule. Or perhaps that's really maternal instinct? Ha! Ha!

Well, Arnold was not really paying attention to me. He's always not in the mood to talk or sometimes I just can see that he needs some sleep. So, I wasn't able to tell him about the real score between Timmy and I.

Well, there's nothing much, really. It's just that since he was always being called for at his office, Timmy temporarily took his role as my chauffeur during my Color-code Day. As a matter of fact, Timmy was spending most of his free time at the house, - making a different version of what Arnold and I used to do and was frequently accompanying me to almost everywhere.

It was pretty clear to us, but we are taking our sweet time. Timmy is not yet my boyfriend and he is not courting me. I think he was just making up for the bad image that made him the bad boy in my scenic life.
