when it came to final 2 weeks count down
till me and Carly are going to HK
anxiety started to creep in
I have to find ways
I mean we two
have to find ways to tell
our parents that we are going
there were two incidents
that the secret almost broke out
1st
my ex boss asked my mom
when am I going to HK?
I denied it
“she must have remembered wrongly, huh?”
2nd
I was tuning into 903 as usual
then dad came and asked
“are you going to HK?”
no….
“then how come you are listening to
HK radio all the time”
phewww……
finally agreed on the story
we won the tickets through some contests
just in case
the parents happened to meet
and cross check
last week
I texted my dad
saying..
we won the tickets
therefore we are flying on the 23rd to HK
he didn’t reply anything
so I assumed he did not see it
and I did not mention anything
since my grandpa’s funeral is still going on
till yesterday morning
“when are you going back to college”
“Aug”
“gonna be here
then 20+ on trip for a few days”
“you said,
what did you girls win again?”
“oh.. free flight tickets”
“so easy to win
how come I never win”
“really….”
“wanna go HK
then just go”
“this excuse is too primary school”
“……..”
“and soon you will tell
you win ticket to London”
“……….”
last year
I did the same thing
told my dad
I am going HK
with a couple of friends
actually
I was planning to go alone
he called me for a talk
in the middle of the night
and asked for details
finally
he did not allow me to go
and ended up
finally
counting down 10 days
I am ready to go
muakzzz..
I love my dad more and more now
*guilty*
