I was surfing the internet last night looking for a vintage Rolex watch and how much will I have to pay to get one.

It's to replace Qing's vintage watch that I lost two days ago.

Yes! I have been a bad naughty squirrel. I lost Qing's watch that his father gave to him as a birthday gift.

He warned me. Qing does. But I didn't listen to him. (I know you are all rolling your eyes and asking when did I ever manage to listen to my boyfriend? I tried, but I seem to be failing in the listening to him department)

We talked on the phone since he is still in Shanghai shooting. I called him to ask for his permission to borrow his watch.

Do you want to peek at that conversation that happened three nights ago?

Me: Qing ah, I want to wear your watch. I think it will fit my outfit for tomorrow.

I have a guesting in a music show where I will sing. Qing's watch will match my outfit.

Qing: But the buckle of that watch is a bit loose Dayu. I was thinking of taking it to the repair store but I keep on forgetting it.

Me: I will take it! I will take your watch to the repair store after I use it. I promise...

Qing: (still doubtful) I am really not sure love...

Me: Please...please...

Qing: (sighing resignedly) Oh alright. But take it to the repair shop after, okay?

Me: Yes! Thank you. I love you. (Making kissy sounds)

Qing: (laughing) I love you too. Have fun tomorrow. Be careful.

Me: I will. Stay safe too and message me if you are on your way back here in Beijing.

Qing. I will.

There. See? Just push aside our chessiness and you will see that he warned me about the buckle of the watch.

But did I mind it? No, of course not. All I know is that the watch match my outfit and it looks good on me.

Like it really looks good on me that Qing should just give it to me cause it suits me more than it suits him.

I am an ugly person sometimes.

Anyhow. I went through my day. Did guested in the show and done pretty well with singing my songs.

All in all, not a bad day for Feng Jian Yu.

But then night came, I got home and suddenly I feel like I am missing something.

I started cataloging all my stuffs. My phone, wallet, cards, my bag, clothes. I don't think I am losing something until my eyes saw my watchless wrist.

Qing's watch! Qing's vintage Rolex watch! It's not with me!

I immediately snatched my bag, opened the zipper all the way and turn it upside down on the bed. Letting the stuffs inside it shower the bed.

I started going through my things one by one looking for the watch.

Me: (stunned) It's not here!
