Xiaohui's wedding - 29 Oct

[backdated to 29 Oct]

I had been looking forward to this date. At 6pm, I was lucky to get an early dismissal from RT. I took a cab ride and rushed home. Took a quick shower and waited for Xiaofen's cab. Together, we arrived at York Hotel.
"Hey, there's Bert!"
"Why you call him Bert?"
"Cos there was a time when his hair looked like the Sesame Street character"

"Hi... Is she your girlfriend?"
"Ya, isn't she pretty?"
[Alarmed look from Xiaofen]
"You are?..."
"Xiaofen la"
Forgot they never met -.-
Disclaimer: She's not my gf. It's a JOKE.

We looked at the photos. If we didn't know better, we would have thought we came to the wrong wedding.
"I rather liked her when she was cute cute"
"Aiyah, a girl can only be the prettiest person, once in her life"

"JW (not his real name), where are you?"
"Lobby, turn left"
"Turn left? Oh..."
[Escorts Blossom in]
"Gina, don't walk so fast! No one’s forcing you!"
[Blossom grins]

JW, Xiaofen and Gina looked at the photos again.
"Hi everyone, please be seated"

[enter Angela]
[gasp] "She's thinner than before..."
"You got fat!"
"You got thin!"
"Where's your sister?"
"Oh she's not feeling well"
Hmm...

"Adrian not coming"
"Ah... we can switch over"

With 20 tables, it was a rather cosy feeling. We actually had time to tease the bride. Elegant as she was, once she laughed, she was our Xiaohui once again.
Looking at our table, it would also be the last time this group would ever form. Though we were all once colleagues, the link was standing there, in her radiance.
