Yang Guo meets the Toyota Wish

Today was different. I met my girl at Hougang at about 4:30 before sending her to work. Didn't really spend much time with her cos I had to rush off to help my dad at his workplace. Apparently his com screwed up and I went to help him fix it. We then did some filing and stock taking before we were done. Went to Maxwell Hawker Centre to meet my mum and sis for dinner and I wanted to buy "Tao Suan" for Gu Gu as her place there was sold out. Unfortunately, I was a wee bit too late and the "Tau Suan" store was closed. Oh well, I'll buy it for her tomorrow then. Now, for tonight's highlight. The car. My dad had recently sent in his Nissan Sylphy for repairs as a few days ago, another car had bumped, ok, not bumped. More of rammed into the back of our beloved car, so my dad had to send it for repairs. It would take a couple of days, 12 days, to be exact. So my dad went to rent a car (at a discounted price cos the other party who rammed into us would be paying half the price) and of all the cars he could get, he chose the 2010 Toyota Wish. There were Nissans, Subarus, Mitsubishis, even BMWs and Mercedes, but my dad has to go choose the Wish. As you all know, I'm not a fan of the Toyota Wish as I believe it to be a rather distasteful car but I had no choice. Sitting in it was a torture. After dinner, I went to City Sq with my family to walk around the mall and wait for Gu Gu to finish work before sending her home. As expected, most of the shops were closed and after Gu Gu was done at work, she closed shop and we went to the carpark to retrieve the car. Gu Gu sat next to me in the car on the way back and we held hands and I kissed her a few times in the darkness of the car (not that my parents would mind, they wouldn't mind at all but I still prefer abit of privacy) and after reaching her place, I walked her to the lift and kissed her goodnight before returning to the waiting car. And as I got in and we headed off for home, all of a sudden, the Toyota Wish didn't seem like such a terrible car after all. At least it had given me some time with Gu Gu, while being together with my family. It had bonded us together for that short period of time, and I was honestly glad for that. And somehow, that led me lose my dislike for the Toyota Wish abit. And now, here I am, talking to Gu Gu on MSN.
