PrologueMy roommates 👩🏻🧕🏽👩🏽 and I have just finished pampering ourselves. You know girls are known to have many beauty rituals at night. Especially, flight attendants 💁🏻♀️ If I do say so myself. For the reason that, we have to keep our physical appearance pleasing for our job and for ourselves too mainstream? ✈️
I have 2 roommates one Malaysian 🧕🏽and one Thai. 👩🏻💼I am a Filipina. 👩🏻We three are working for Air Asia Malaysia X. ✈️ We live at Sepang District Malaysia, quite near the Kuala Lumpur International Airport.
I was sitting beside Aiya, my Malaysian roommate while I was scanning my instagram account when I saw a picture of my ex boyfriend. I asked aiya "How do you find this guy?" 📲🙋🏻♂️
Aiya replied "He seems like a nice guy, dark and good looking." 👍🏻
I asked Vina my Thai roommate "Vina look, how about you?"
Vina said " He seems your type. I sense that he is affiliated with your past." 👌🏻
"That's what I was about to say Vina!" Aiya coincided.
"He's my ex boyfriend." I said 💑💔
"So how long had you been together?" aiya asked me with so much curiosity in her eyes.
"Eight years and six months" I replied.
Vina said "Girl, 8 years and 6 months? Im shookedth. That's like marriage. That's a long long long term relationship." 😱
" LMAO My relationships never past one year," Aiya said. 😂
"From graduating Senior High School, then College, to being a Cabin Crew Member." I said.
Vina asked "why'd you broke up?" 💔
I replied "LDR, adulthood differences, time? I don't know."
Aiya said "Well that's a sad waste of romantic investment for 8 years and six months." 😦
"I Agree" Vina coincided. ☹️
They both asked me "do you still love him?" With a teasing tone. 😏😏
I just said " I'm sleepy, Lets all sleep we all have different flights tomorrow, we need rest." 😯😴
They slept. I stayed up in bed thinking about him. I recollected memories and reminisced all of that's about our past love. I remember I was only grade 11, a newly transfer in our college. I saw him talking to my classmates before our P.E. Class. They're talking about their rehearsals schedule in their cultural dance organisation. I just can't help but crush at him so badly. He's 6flat, Filipino Dark and so good looking. My type of course. I just had to stare at him for that moment. After that school day I want home and was thinking. I can't get his picturesque face out of my mind. 😍😍😍❤️❤️❤️
That time, I was also finding ways to enlarge my circle and to socialise by joining organisations which fit my skills. I have joined the theatre organisation but didn't see myself enjoying it so i left. I also tried the volleyball varsity team but after training, I just couldn't handle the pain. I saw one, which performs cultural philippine dance. I wasn't actually good at dancing 🕺🏻but then I thought about learning it just for new skills. I also realise that he, my crush is part of that organisation. So why not give a try? Even though I don't know exactly how to dance. I badly crushed on that guy so i joined that organisation without hesitation and trained just to see him everyday.
Whenever we're training i always make sure i catch his eyes. He's got that hazy daydream dark brown eyes. I notice that he was also staring back at me OMG LMAO. 👀😍
Later on, long story short he became my boyfriend. His name is Jake. 😎We pursued both of our dreams. Jake finished Information technology. 👨🏻🎓Granted his promise to his parents and gave them a life that we always dreamed for our family to have. And, I finished my course Tourism 👩🏻🎓Management. Applied for Air Asia and luckily was assigned to Air Asia Malaysia X. Our parents were both proud of what we have achieved. Unfortunately, success may have a cost. Our relationship doesn't workout anymore. 💔 We both have developed differences and would always argue whenever we were together. We also lacked time management for our relationship. We both decided to give it a break and become at least good friends that never talked until now. It broke both our hearts to part and continue with our own lives. But that's then and this is now. I think he's already moved on. I wish i was too.
