This is yet another backlog but for yesterday.
It was a day where my loyalty was tested. Soap operas often show scenes of a guy torn between his mother and girlfriend/wife. I usually scoffed at such drama, thinking it was the inept guy who was to blame for his inability to take sides. And I thought I was spared from such a scenario, for I know exactly how to react should I land myself into one. Or so I thought.
Prior to my departure from home, mom fried some waxed sausage and prepared lunch. It was folly on my part for not informing her that I intended to go out for lunch. I was still early and I made quick work of the lunch. Midway through my lunch, I felt sudden spasms in my stomach and I had to stop lunch to visit the toilet.
Man! It was a bad diarrhoea alright. Not once but twice. As such I turned up late for meeting her. That was enough to piss her off bad. That was also the start of more events to come, eventually leading to a long period of awkard silence and arguements.
I was regretting my decision to somewhat please my mom and stayed for lunch. Had I not done so, I would have made it on time, even with diarrhoea. This is just like the time when I missed the bus when I was talking to Teo.
I had enough. My moment of weakness lead to so many other things. The last time round, I spent some extra money. This time round, I may end up losing more.
