The Proposal (Part 1)

He called and made sure I brought my bikini. I thought something was amiss. I did not want to swim at Sentosa. We were going to catch the rock circus show at Resorts World. I wanted to dress pretty.
I didn't want to bathe in cold water at the public shower, too.

But he insisted.

Still feeling guilty abt Fri's (supposed) chalet, I decided against arguing with him and brought whatever he wanted me to bring.
Anyway, he promised a hot shower and a locker for me to deposit my stuff.

At abt noon, he fetched me in a taxi. We reached the gantry to Sentosa shortly.
The toll lady stretched out her hand and asked for the entrance fee. The taxi driver flustered and asked,"Do you have the hotel 'tickets'?"
My bf looked irritated.
"Sorry, I am a hotel guest. Are we allowed free entry?"

What hotel guest? He booked a room?? I thought.

Toll lady replied, "Do you have your hotel pass with you?"

"No, we have not checked in yet."

"Sorry, I'm afraid you have to present your hotel pass. Otherwise, you need to pay for entry."

"Ok ok." The amt was deducted from the taxi's cashcard.

"What hotel room?" I asked him.

"No lah, I'm just trying to see if I can get free entry or not."

I was suspicious but I didn't think that he was capable of cooking up a quick lie.

Flustered taxi uncle (who didn't seem to know the place well... what the f***??!!) then asked,"How to get to Siloso Beach Resort? Which direction??"

I stared at my bf. "What beach resort?"

Extremely irritated, my bf pointed to the right.

"The Siloso Beach Resort is nearer to the beach we are going to." he tried to explain.

The blurcock taxi uncle kept mumbling and looking out for signs to Siloso Beach Resort. Oh well, since he planned something and I was still feeling guilty, I didn't probe any further.

To sum it up, I was thrilled to find that he booked a room for a night. The hotel was great. The pool was great. The room was great.


The pool....!

He told me that he wanted to make up for what happened on Fri. He just wanted me to be happy.
