You asked for it LANJIAO!

He looked deep into my eyes. He smiled and he whispered, "I love you." I closed my eyes and waited patiently for his lips to touch mine... And then at this crucial moment my phone rang...

"Ni ku zhe dui wo shuo, tung wa li dou shi pian ren de, wo bu ke neng shi ni de wang zi..." (In English: "You sobbed in between tears and you said to me, fairytales are not real and I am not your Prince Charming...")

Arrrgggghhhhh...fucktardSss!!! It was only a dream. What a 'wakeup' call. I mused.

I extended my hand to reach out for my mobile phone and wondered which idiot is calling me at this ungodly hour. For crying out loud, it is Sunday today, BAKA! I cursed under my breath.

"Harlow?" I purred slightly. Still refuse to wake up. I stole a quick glance at the wall clock. 7.20AM. I closed my eyes again. Didn't I just go to bed around 6.30AM THIS MORNING ONLY? Grrr... I moaned and groaned softly.

"Hi sweetie. It's me. Eric."

Eric? My brain triggered a series of search functions to look for an image that matches the manly voice and the familiar name which had been dormant in my memory bank for a long long time.

Within seconds, a match is found. "Eric? Is it really you, Eric?" I opened my eyes w... i... d... e... with THAT particular Eric's image in my mind.

"Yes. It's me. How's my little si-mui doing in Malaysia?"

I smiled. It's really the 'Eric' that I know from my varsity days. He is the pillar of my strength every time I fall out of league and without his guidance and moral support, I wouldn't have gotten an A+ for my final year project.

I turned and sat up in bed. The cool air from the air-con above me is blowing directly onto my face. I pulled up the duvet and replied, "I'm doing great here. What about yourself?"

"I'm not good because you hide my favourite online diary." He said.

"Errr..."

"The little si-mui I know is a tough, strong and intelligent girl. She will never ever give up until she has put up a good fight. She wouldn't hide in a 'turtle shell' just because she was being barked at by some random stray dogs."

"I..."

He interrupted, "You told me before: 'Avoiding is not a solution'. No matter which corner you turn into or which route you take, there is always a hungry monster waiting to pounce on you."

"Yes but..."

"That's why you shouldn't punish those who love you. You should PUNISH THOSE WHO DON'T! Do you know that when you are sad, there are a lot more people out there, especially those who love you, will feel 100 times worse and sadder than you just because you are not happy?"

"Don't pull my legs Eric."

"I'm telling you the truth. And if you don't get out from your 'shell' within 24 hours from now, I'm going to make sure everyone knows where your current hiding place is."

"That's blackmail!" I protested.

"Yes, it is." He replied.

"You are mean."

"Yes, I am."

"I will write boring shit for you so that you won't bother to read any of my shit anymore."

"Do that."

"%@$#$%^!!!"

"Good spirit."

"#$%&%#$$^$@#$%@#%##$%&%#$$^$@#$%@#%#!!!"

"Keep it up!"

"F*ck you!"

"You have 24 hours only."

"I will put your picture up on my blog."

"Thanks for the free promotion. Remember to use the handsomEST pic please."

"YOU ARE SUCH A PAIN IN MY ARSE!!!"

"You too."
