'Would please accompany me?' is what she said, and now we're on a boat crossing the Chaopraya River.
"I'm so excited!" she cheerfully told me.
"Haha. So you're telling me that this is the first time you're actually exploring what Bangkok has to offer?" I replied.
"Yes, and well, since you're the only person here that I'm not shy to be with, I asked you."
"Well, we're practically bestfriends already. Haha."
"You got that right, but I have yet to know more of you Kyle."
"Yeah, well, once you get to know me, I'm actually a boring person. You'll only be disappointed."
"I don't think so, I'm sure you're the only one thinking that way."
"Who knows? Maybe there are others thinking the same way."
"You can cross me out of that list, cause I don't think you're boring at all," said Eve, with a smile that made me fall for her more. "By the way, where are you taking me Kyle?"
"You said you wanted to explore Bangkok right? Well, Bangkok is famous for its temples."
"Temples?"
"Yeah, and the one we're going to is called Wat Arun."
"Wat what?"
"Wat Arun. It's a temple where you can climb to the top and see the view from there. One of the most famous temples in Bangkok."
"Wow, you sure know a lot Kyle."
"Yeah, well, I've been here for a long time already."
"Haha. That's true."
When we arrived at Wat Arun, we went inside the temple so Eve can explore it. We climbed the steep stairs. Took pictures and bought souvenirs.
"Wow! Are you sure you want to take these many photos? You'll drain your battery, you know," I asked.
"That's alright. We can use your phone if that happens. Haha."
"This isn't the only place I'm taking you, you know."
"Well, the more the better!"
There were moments in my life that I didn't want to end. Some more special than others. Moments with Eve were definitely some of those times.
After the Wat Arun trip, I took her to Pratunam, a famous shopping district. It's famous for being cheap and for being open 24/7. It's definitely one of the favorites of Filipinos touring Bangkok, and it also became one of Eve's.
"Wow! Are these prices for real?!" she shouted while we were looking at the shops.
"Don't get too pumped. Haha. Those prices aren't the bargaining prices just yet," I replied.
"You can still bargain?!"
"Yeah, the more items you buy, the cheaper they become."
"Wow, it was really the right decision to ask you to go with me. You're an expert on Bangkok Kyle."
"Haha. Not really. I think Jonny is better than me, plus he has a car."
"Well, I wanted you to be the one to show me around. Haha."
"Why's that?"
"Well, just because."
"Right. Haha. Let's leave it at that."
Just like majority of the girls I know, Eve was addicted to shopping. We spent almost 4 hours buying and bargaining, and buying more clothes. We didn't even finish going around the whole area, and she already bought a lot. And, as a gentleman, I carried them for her.
