We had dinner yesterday night - all of us - including the three kids and the maid. We went to the cosy bay. I never been to that place before. She had told me before that her colleague had brought her there before - that was a couple of months back. I did not think much of it then. That colleague of hers - her sub-ordinate in fact - the first time she spoke about any male colleague at great length - I did not take notice. Now as I recalled there were other instances of outing with this colleague - like dinner, having a drink, going for golfing, play mahjong - now all these made sense to me. He was her lover - it may not have started as a lover - but surely the seeds of love have been planted for a while.
And yesterday she suggested this very place for dinner. I did not object to it although I did not have a nice good feeling. We sat by the side of the kallang river and could see the Stadium across the river. The reflections on the river water looked stunningly nice.
The food was not as good as she had mentioned but fortunately the atmosphere was not tense. I had a glass of red wine and perhaps that calmed me a bit - we spoke briefly on inconsequential things and events. There were no taunting this time round. We had our food and the children put in coins for some of Jay Chou's music into the juke box.
She asked me if I would like to go to the driving range on Sunday and I replied OK. And F remarked that we have not played golf for quite a while.
She paid for the dinner and we left the place.
