On Saturday, December 24th, 2011, I had the privilege of witnessing a man among men. On this evening, the stars were clothed in all their glory and the moon shone in the dark sky. The following is my witnessing of the events that followed:
10:00pm - People arrive at my house to watch movie. Among the introductions, I introduce a girl named Michelle to Jorge.
10:30pm - Movie (Good Will Hunting) begins.
1230am - Movie ends.
1245am - Everyone in the house leaves, except for me, Wayne Lo (who decides to sleep over), Jorge (who is sleeping at the house for the holidays), and Michelle Ku (who stayed behind to chat for awhile).
100am - Incredible conversation ensues between Wayne, Jorge, Michelle and me, and thoughts are shared.
230am - We end off in prayer.
235am - Michelle decides to go home.
236am - Michelle opens the front door.
237am - Wayne walks up to Michelle.
237am - Wayne hugs Michelle goodbye and wishes her a Merry Christmas
238am - I walk up to Michelle.
238am - I hug Michelle goodbye and wish her a Merry Christmas
239am 5 seconds - Jorge struts towards Michelle full of confidence, pomp and splendor.
240am 10 seconds - Jorge hugs Michelle goodbye.
240am 15 seconds - Jorge's face gets closer to Michelle, Michelle's face gets closer to Jorge.
240am 20 seconds - Wayne and I get scared because of the closeness of their faces.
240am 25 seconds - Jorge plants a kiss on Michelle's cheek. Michelle plants a kiss on Jorge's cheek.
240am 26 seconds - Wayne and I stare in disbelief. Wayne think it's not fair.
240am 40 seconds - Wayne and I are shocked and don't know how to react.
241am 40 seconds - Wayne and I are still confused, and are holding our heads with our hands in disbelief.
242am - Wayne thinks to himself: "You're allowed to do that?? I wish I knew that years ago!"
243am - I asked Jorge what just happened.
244am - Jorge replies: "It's normal"
245am - Josess and Wayne: ?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????

Europe, the reverse reaction should be had. If the man does not bid farewell in this manner, it would be disrespect to the woman.
ReplyDeletewhat i don't understand is why none of you "men" took the lady home at 2:35 in the morning! Chivalry truly is dead.
