"You BETRAYED TESCO for him...!!!"

I shall die without any regrets as I have realise how many soulmates I've actually got...LW..actually had a very close to my heart response when I told her I went to Sainsbury yesterday with him....she exclaimed in MSN..." YOu betrayed Tesco for him!!"...I was like...I have never tell anyone how faithful I am to Tesco...and she can actually feel that and say that aloud for me....

Ah...yes....sorry my beloved TESCO. I should never have gone to Sainsbury yesterday...please forgive me...but but....becos you are too far away...

The story begins with my almost empty frigde.
It is going to be empty and hence the need to fill it up.
His as well.
The both of us has been working really hard these days that we are both totally exhausted by the time we reach home and eat up all our supplies...and hence...his fridge and my fridge are empty at the same time. His fridge is not my fridge in case some of you raise an eyebrow.
Anyway...and so...yesterday...a nice Friday...
while we are still in the studio...he suddenly said this to me

"Sha, I am going to leave in a while...is that ok for you?"

Of cos...this is his space.

But I can't help but to ask why?....expecting an answer like..."oh I am going for a drink with friends??...or..i am meeting some friends...or blah blah..."

But no.

He said, " I need to go Sainsbury.."

I replied,"Huh..I need to go do grocery as well...my fridge is absolutely (or almost) empty..."..I am not lying....I really intend to go Tesco this evening even if he is not leaving...i will.

"me too..my fridge is empty too!"...he said.

But his destination is Sainsbury.

For the benefit of my Singaporean friends...
Tesco is like NTUC and Sainsbury is like Cold Storage.

And so...without saying "OK let's do shopping together"...we automatically assume we are going to do that together...but the question is NTUC or Cold Storage...er...I mean Tesco or Sainsbury.

So when it comes to the part when we are both walking towards the city...I ask him...which Sainsbury...?

Becos there are 2...One is a express small one with a steeper price...and the other is a larger one witha friendier price plus with some good discount occassionally...the xpress Sainsbury is 5 minutes walk from school....the larger Sainsbury is 15 minutes walk....and...TESCO...is 25 minute away....

He said...this one...meaning the 5 minute one...
ah...should have known...guys are like dat..they are not particular about price...they just want convenient...I guess..

I plead...."Can we go to Tesco?....

"Nope."....he said.

"Why?"...I asked.

"becos it is too far away....and I am going to take a cab home...it will cost more...", he replied.

Ah..this is the most logical answer becos even me will feel the pinch...taking a cab.

So I forgive him...we go Sainsbury...

But but...

So I ask him again..."Can we go to the big Sainsbury instead of the small one"

"Which big one?"..

"The one Soren and Sandy went to...."

"Ah..that one...mmm..."
Thinking for more than 2 seconds...he replied..."OK."

And so....I betrayed my beloved TESCO...and went to Sainsbury yesterday...
not too bad actually...got a bargin discounted Golden delicious apple for only £0.20!!!
and some usual stuff I would buy usually in Sainsbury...I mean..i do have stuff that I would only buy in Sainsbury...but most of my favorite stuff are from Tesco...but I did grab some essentials from Sainsbury...and observe what is in his shopping basket...and felt rather please.

His shopping list:

Tomatoes
Rice
paisley
canned plum tomatoes
rice
onions
one small bottle of Fanta orange
Lamb mince
chicken
toilet rolls
mushrooms
cheese

blah blah...couldn't remember all...as I am shopping myself as well...

I only bought

Golden delicious apple
Ham
Chinese leaf
rice
sweet potatoes


And yah...end of shopping...we took a cab...
he drop me off somewhere near the school so that I walk home myself...while his cab goes to a different direction.

That's all.
