Anna - Not too sure if he is really pinning for me...probably just lonely over in Country X (yes...will continue to say Country X since it is much more mysterious and interesting than Indonesia ! ) H did call me last night to tell me that he has arrived in Country Y (to add more to the mystery...ha ha ha) and I said "okay!". He called me again later and said that he had check-in, and would I like to call him at the hotel. I said "Err..okay" and did call him. We talked abit. He sounded alittle depressed...but I didn't ask him why nor make any signs that I am aware of his sad tone of voice.
H: If anything happens to us, do you mean that we can't talk like this anymore?
Me: Yeah, of course not. Besides, why would you want to?
(He's hoping that things would be the same after he goes to OW???? I think NOT!)
Then H proceeded to ask about the boys (what could I tell him? Other than the boys are fine?), and then told me about the houses that he went to see...
H: Went to see some houses...wow..with big pools and roman columns blah blah blah.
Me: Wouldn't that be like over the budget?
H: Yeah..a bit over the budget. But it's not a budget problem. It's just that they want the rental to be paid 2-years in full.
Me: Wow..
H: Yeah...and my company would only pay 1-year in full and not two years.
Me: What about apartments?
H: Havent' seen any.
Me: Payment for 1 year?
H: Yeah...I guessed.
Me: Then I supposed you should look at apartments. Stay somewhere close to your office, so that you don't have to travel far...with the traffic jams and all.
H: Yeah..I guessed (sounding rather dejected)
Then he talked about all the ppl in his work place blah blah blah...

I kept the conversation AS-IF I am a helpful friend. No R talks. No future talks.. Just light... Did give him a text before I went to bed to wish him to have a good meeting and that I would send him some photos of the boys.

Well...another day has gone ....

One Day at a TIME!!!!
