Another draft of BLAHS#2: Expectations.

FLASHBACK. 2 DAYS AGO.

Morning class over, still got the hangover of too much sleeping from last week's break. Went straight home, had lunch, blah, blah, blah.

Just before I decided to take a nap, something crossed my mind: Mini Chocolate Croissants.

Looking at the calendar, "Monthly cravings" I said to myself. Lied down on the sofabed ter-enak dan ter-comfy sedunia, Mini Chocolate Croissants are floating with a black backdrop when I closed my eyes. And of course, as always, I dozed off.....

and Mini Chocolate Croissants! Shite, the urge was killing me.

So, I decided to walk to my housemate's room and asked her what she was doing. She was about to go out when I walked in, I got excited and told her about my cravings for Mini Chocolate Croissants.

"Would you help me buy me a box of those mini-choc croissants at the store while you're downtown, would mean a lot to me." (seriously, without exaggeration, "Would mean a lot to me" part was in my sentence. Oh dear, PMS.)

And, being a nice housemate of mine, of course she said Yes.

Stormed back to my room and threw myself to the sofabed ter-comfy sedunia. Laying down, I remembered one thing: She TENDS to forget stuff.

40% chance she would come back with my box of those yummy mini choc croissants

60% chance I would come to her room and ask her my box of those yummy mini choc croissants and her answer will be "Yah bi! Sorry banget, gue lupa!"

Bummer.

So yes, I laid down for half and hours thinking about those damn croissants... imagining munching it.. the crisp yet soft kind of moment when you get to the chocolate filling.. until I (AGAIN!!) dozed off..

for like a minute. (which was actually 40mins)

She should be back by now, I said to my self. For a while there, I walked around my room to find something to do. Did the stupid meaningless roaming around for 20mins, I felt like I was forgetting something.

What did I forget?

DUDE! I forgot that I had cravings for Mini Chocolate Croissants.

She would've forgotten anyways, I said to myself.

So there, no expectations, nothing.

Ah, let's just check what is she been up to, again, speaking to myself.

Opened the door, she was sitting on her desk texting something on her phone. And there it was, My box of mini chocolate croissants.

From that day, it strike me of how things came out when u least expected it.

Doesn't matter what it is, croissants, risoles, your friend, your family, your hopes for the future.

It was the best 3 euros mini chocolate croissants ever.
