"Rose, listen to me... listen....winning that ticket was the best thing that had happened to me...it brought me to u....and I m thankful, Rose....I m thankful...."
Suddenly I felt much fortunate than Jack, 'cos I dun have to risk my life to board Titanic, all I have to do is to switch on my PC every night.
But he's one lucky guy too, 'cos he knows how to draw, and just look at how slowly he was drawing Rose, that made me blame myself for the lack of this talent. But to her, this movie wasn’t just about drawings or special effects.

I noticed that packet of tissue paper she was holding in her hand. and just when Rose said:" I promise... I will never let go, Jack... I’ll never let go.."
She opened up her sling bag and here comes the reserve handkerchief. Damn that Celine Dion, y on earth did she had to sing that "MY HEART WILL GO ON" at the end of the show, for all the female species inside the theater, its like "MY TEARS WILL ALSO GO ON"
"Ok... movie ended... lets go...."
I stood up, speak to her gently, worried that every single word I breath out might just crush Onto her, and kill her. she continued to sit on the position, looked at me with her beautiful eyes that just came back from a swim. after a while, she said...

"slorr.... movie ended..... but life goes on.. m I rite?..."
I nodded my head... but I just wished somebody might give me some clue of what she was saying. Finally we managed to leave Orchard Cineplex, since its still early, we decided to take a walk down the street.
along the way, she seems unusually quiet. so I guess Tye was rite about the 'TITANIC FLU', he said that gals often got so mentally distressed after watching this show, and it is the best time to launch an emotional attack on her, that’s y Tye had watch Titanic for over 5 times roughly. her eyes were focussed on the path or the crowds but I know her mind was still left on Titanic, sinking with her, waiting for somebody to pull her up.
I just kept my mouth shut 'cos I know I m not a good swimmer. we walked to Plaza Singapura. suddenly she stopped in front of a Christian Dior counter.
"slorr.. have u read a novel called 'fragrance'?..."
"err.. nope.... y do u ask?..."
"look at this 'DOLCE VITA' from Christian Dior... its what the guy bought for her girlfriend in the story on her birthday....and he told her 'DOLCE VITA' is French, meaning 'SWEET TIMES'..."
She pointed to a bottle of perfume at the counter, but I was more interested at the price tag around the neck of the bottle. "oh... izzit?..."
"slorr... then do u consider today as 'sweet times'...?"
"at first I do... but some pts are deducted since u started crying..."
"that means it can only be considered a little bit sweet, I’ll buy the small bottle then..."
I insisted to pay for the perfume as her b-dae present from me since I know her birthday is coming soon, this kinda saves me a lot of trouble of finding a present for her. luckily its just perfume, I would have to pawn my underwear if that guy in the story gives her girlfriend diamond or gold bar."
"r u hungry?.... wanna sit down and have something?..."
"I dun have appetite... what about u?.." "you eat, I eat...."
Her eyes are red again...... I m such a fool. finally got away from the noisy crowd at the MRT station, walking on one of the streets of AMK Ave 6. contrastingly, its so quiet now that I even can hear the rhythm of her heartbeat.

"slorr... do u know what's the correct way of applying perfume?"
I shook my head. in fact, I had never used a perfume or cologne before, medicated oil maybe.

"1st u apply some behind ur ears... then ur neck and wrists...after that spray some onto the air, then walk through it..."
"sure or not?... in that case this little bottle wont even be able to last u for 3 days...."
"slorr.. shall we try?..."
"'we'?... u go ahead... I m a MAN..."
She opened up that DOLCE VITA...behind her ears, neck then the wrist she applied some... and she really did spray some onto the air!!...

WABIANGZ!!.. expensive leh!... finally she stretched out her hands... facing up... like enjoying the raindrops falling on her face...
"hahaha...."
"slorr... this is so fun!.... now its ur turn...."
She went through the same procedures with me and I can feel the coldness of her fingers. maybe its the perfume... I guess.

"slorr... get ready... I m going to spray!!..."
I imitated her.. face up...and walked through my 1st perfume rain.
"slorr...lets have another round!!..."
" WHAT!!... serious?.."
My money isn't easy to come by leh!!.... b4 I can collect the broken pieces of my heart, she had walked through her second round. She was even more excited this time, hoping around, like her nick.... a flying and dancing butterfly. late night of AMK, the streets smells unusually nicer rite now until we finished the whole of that DOLCE VITA.

"DOLCE VITA is exhausted... I guess this sweet time shall end now too....slorr.. I’ll go up now.... tonight 1am. I wont be online, and u r not to do so too..."
"huh?....but why?...."

"go online at 12pm tomorrow.. u will know....remember... only 12pm..."
She turned and walked into the lift... at the same time... I saw an obvious pink patch behind her neck... which is visible only now becos she tied her hair. I looked up towards her window on the 4th floor from below, but it never light up.

I switched off the light in my room... engulfed in the absolute darkness... 'cos I wished to have the same kind of feeling as her right now... I realised in complete darkness... the easiest mood one gets... is loneliness.. she must be lonely rite now... half asleep..
I almost can see a beautiful butterfly.. turning to ashes amidst the sea of flame... and that patch behind her neck.. from pink it became red... and then burgundy.. slowly.. it swallowed me.... was it the cause of that can of beer just now?...
suddenly I felt cold... and shaky.. and that coolness seemed to have come straight from my heart... the rate of my heartbeat was an exponential function of time as it got closer to 1am...

USE A DIFFERENT NICK!!...
checked .. she isn't there.... my heart was beating fast... but the temp remained below healthy level........
-=~@~=-

Finally its 12 pm, excited as I was, logged on the net, yet there was still no sign of FlyNDance. But there’s a mail from her......
Dear slorr,

At first I thought it will be easier for me to settle down in the darkness... recollecting memories we have shared... but all I felt was loneliness...... can u feel it too?...

I still can't change the habit of logging on at 1am... so I used a different nick to sneak into AJCRR... u dun blame me right?...:P... u weren’t there... should I feel glad for ur obedience?.... U said both of us belonged to TYPE 2... the foolish type...maybe u r right!... 'cos I really do admire those who dares to fight for their desires... I stroke my hair gently when u said that I m leaving the world... and a few strands of hair fell..... No!... doctor told me its not a terminal disease... and doctor aren't supposed to lie!!?...I still can live like a normal person...
