I'm surprised I didn't write about this yesterday, while the memories were still fresh in my mind, and his image still burned into my head.
Daniel Joo Wei Bessant,
you've taken my heart away!
I mean, this is REALLY love at first sight. I am no longer a skeptic when it comes to things like this. When a boy has lovely brown eyes, brown hair, and symmetrically-artfully-spread freckles, he is GORGEOUS. And when Amelia meets boys like that, she gets hopelessly attached and obsessed!
If he were not five years of age,
I'd probably have hit on him like nuts and gotten his number.
THANKFULLY, HE IS!
That adorable little chunk of sweetness warmed up to me so quickly, almost immediately, I should say! He was so cheeky, and articulate, and confident and friendly! We played cards, and I showed him a mechanical pencil, and he drew his adorable little name for me, on my Frankenstein PYQ paper.
That piece of paper, I'm going to keep, siempre!
And it breaks my heart, kind of, to know that I can never have a baby like that, because of my very very dominant Asian genes. My child will have black hair, black eyes, and freckle-less Chinese skin.
SIGH.
He knew who I was when he saw me at the bus-stop, and he had this confused look on his face, probably not knowing why I had to wait at the side of the road.
I went home smiling.
I know i sound like some kind of paedophile, but it's just that I really, really like children, and even Daniel's teacher said I was so patient with him! Pon and Hamster agree that I am teacher-material. :)
And this child was just absolutely a heart-throb. I pity his future girlfriends, they're going to be SO bummed when he moves on and leaves. Just like I was, knowing that Wednesday tuition is just a back-up if I can't make it on Saturdays. I had so much fun reading to him, and telling him stories, and kissing the top of his head! :)
Oh well, life's like that. It has it's weird ways. I'll say that little angel made ME very happy yesterday!
Cheers, and Daniel, I miss you already!
