Jason was staring at the grumpy Jess, he was scratching his head trying to playback the scenes before they ended up in this situation. Why is it so hard to understand woman? He sigh internally, he did not want to make the situation any worse.
Jess, on the other hand was grumbling to herself, how did she end up with such a dense person, he is attentive at work and such a detail freak when it comes to Derek but why is it when it comes to her, she feels... She sigh out loud because she can't seem to find the right word. Is she jealous of Derek? Why is she so moody lately?
It was such a stifling atmosphere, both kept silent and even the waiters kept glancing at their table. It all started when Jason picked Jess up late for dinner and instead of apologising he went on and on about Lee Han Ping and how badass Jade was. Then when he noticed she was silent, he decided to ask her where to eat, Jess, who was already irritated to begin with answered anywhere. In actual fact, she wanted to eat Japanese Sushi. Her favourite food, thinking Jason would understand her thoughts she continue to stare out of the car window, sulking.
Her mood became more sour when she saw he brought her to eat Thai food, she dislike spicy food and had only eaten because she knew he loves spicy food. Her tummy would suffer after that but she never told him the truth. When the waiter came to ask for their orders, she told him to order anything. He did but when the food came, her expression blackened even more. He started eating in silent and tried to put some food on her plate. He asked if she wanted to try his food but she responded by saying its okay so he assumed she didn't want any but when he was done eating, she looked up with an accusatory look and said, "Eh, why didn't you keep some for me?"
Such a disastrous dinner. He is tired with work but now he has to deal with a grumpy girlfriend. Thinking about their relationship, despite being together for few months, he doesn't really know her and her preferences because she is always very obliging. This is the first time, she is acting out and acting like a spoil brat but he doesn't dare to say it out loud. For a peaceful sleep tonight, I better resolved this, Jason thought to himself.
Jason stared at the grumpy Jess, he took a deep breath and gathered his courage. He took her hands in his and asked, "Jess baby, what is the matter? I am sorry I was late, I should have texted that I was going to be late. I am sorry. Forgive me?" He gave her the puss in boots look and brought her hand to his lips.
Jess who was pouting felt her heart melt, it is not often he apologise like this. She sigh again and patted the hand that was holding hers."I am sorry for being grumpy as well."
"I know you are annoyed that I was late but why were you unhappy with the place I chose to eat?" he asked.
"I wanted to eat sushi. I love sushi and it is my favourite food. I don't like spicy food because if I eat spicy food, I will get indigestion." She admitted.
"And I was annoyed because you didn't understand it when I say it's okay means I want but later."Jess explained further, might as well make things clear since they are already on the subject.
"I use its okay for no I don't want, so I thought you did not want. I am sorry that I did not know you didn't like spicy food. I have always ordered spicy food and never once you said anything and you always finish your food, so I had the impression you like spicy food." Jason said guiltily
No wonder people often say to fall in love is easy but to maintain a relationship is hard, two have to put in real effort. Why does Jade and Derek make things look so simple and easy? He sigh internally again. Looks like he have to work harder.
Jess was also thinking that she knew little about the man in front of her. She needs to put in extra effort to get to know him more. "We need to communicate more with each other." They both said it at the same time after they both made their discovery.
"When it comes to mind reading and hidden messages, I am teribble at those, please be straight forward and honest. No more ambiguous answer like anything and anywhere when you already have a place or food in mind, okay?" Jason spoke.
They both made up, ordered dessert and enjoyed each others company. They decided to stroll along the city before going back home, as they were walking, they passed by a Jewellery store and Jess eyes were sparkling when she saw a necklace on display but her eyes dimmed when she saw the price tag. She quickly dragged him away. He took note of the design and the store before following her docilely. After their first proper bump in the relationship, they felt closer and more intimate, and a little more like a couple. Previously, they do banter playfully but not to this extent where they open up about their likes and dislikes.
Jess learnt that she cannot always be a pleaser because it will backfire on her and lead to wrong assumption.
Time flew by quickly, Father Lee made a quick recovery, he can now walk independently without walking aid or human assistance. His speech has also improved a lot, he doesn't need to type to communicate any longer and could string a sentence, a little slow and occasionally he has some words finding difficulties but in the end he managed. Jade juggled between the company and accompanying Father Lee for therapy. Everyday, Derek will call home and Jade for an update on their wellbeing. He informed that he is planning to make a move soon. All preparations are already in place. Soon he will be home.
Heather also made her preparations for April's wedding. She rubbed her hands in glee.
Crystal and Tom had already made plans and are just waiting for Heather side to make a move, once they make their move she will put her plans into action.
Lee Han Ping was still shocked with the past event but there is nothing he could do. Now he felt like a cornered rat, a pawn, who would have known he will be reduce to this state. Al Paci had briefed him of his mission on April's wedding, and he is not looking forward to it.
