I figured that this guy will spill the beans anyway since I didn’t specifically tell him to not speak a word to one particular person about it. Well, maybe I was a little too foolish to think that he is sensible enough to keep it to himself and not tell her about it. This her I’m referring to, is none other than our dear friend Ms. Thumb. As for the guy, I don’t think I need to state his name as the first sentence of this post alone would have already been enough to reveal his true identity.
Anyways, the knowledge of the matter that I’m fond of Ms. Thumb was conveyed by his truly to Ms. Thumb herself. I was prepared for the repercussions of my action of revealing the truth to his truly in the early part of last year and this episode serves as a lesson to myself to never trust anybody again. Initially, I had wanted to swear at him for what he did but I guess I decided to look at the brightest side of things. That is when I realised that the telling of the fact to her helped me see further into the future, reiterating my point made so long ago that I was right in staying put without actual pursues.
I did actually met Ms. Thumb recently at 313 Somerset and I felt the distance between the two of us. I didn’t understand it fully initially but for now, I’ve certainly gotten a clearer picture. The fact of my fondness for her was revealed to her some time in September last year by his truly and between that period till the coincidental meeting at 313, I’ve not talked to or text her. The distance I felt between her and me at 313 was so glaring and that serves to tell me that she wasn’t even remotely interested at all because if there was any interest, she would have talked a lot more, way lot more. So in this way, I would want to thank the guy instead of being all offensive against him. He may have myopic vision in a lot of things but he definitely helped me open up my eyes for this with his actions. I manage to look beyond the surface…
