But T and K didn't make an wffort to wait for each other in irc as they had not falen in love at that point of time... But once again, fate was in action. When K came online one day, T was online again. So K started to talk to T many times online... Then one of the times when K was feeling down bcoz of a quarrel with his gf.. How his gf neglected him bcoz of studying... and many other things... but at this point of time... K didn't feel that he had fallen in love with T. He knows he is attracted to T, but he won't just give away his other relationship.

T on the other hand, hasn't like K as well, she just feels that he is a nice person. So when K tell her about his problems with his gf, T was very receptive. She gave him ideas, and offered some solutions. Never did she say things to worsen their relationship. So T and K became friends who only chatted on irc. So it became like this, a few months breezed by. The first time they chatted was during november 1999, and they talked many times till there was one fateful time during march 2000 when they chatted again...

K began to chat with online, as usual. I remember that it was a Tuesday, that fateful day. K and T chatted just normal talk, there was an econs project coming along, which was due on thursday. K and T begin to talk... and K said something that would change their lives forever. K said...

"Hey, although we have often talked online, I didn't feel that I needed to get your number or anything. I didn't feel like talking to u in person, I myself don't know why" something like that.. T replied "yes, because you are "dao", always pretend that u never see me. I often wanted to say hi but you were always walking around in a hurry". So K, at this point of time, know that he had not been "normal" to T. He realised that he was afraid of being normal to T. Why was that so? It is very simple. T bears an uncanny resemblance to K's gf. Both were sweet petite girls. K was afraid of taking T as a substitute.. (they were in the same school, but K's gf at that time was in another JC). And so K asked himself, why are u acting so strangly towards T? he didn't know. But he said that golden line "do you want to meet me face to face?" K couldn't believe that he typed that sentence. He keep telling himself... If T rejects this once, he would never think about asking her out again and leave things as they are. He really didn't kow what to do at that point of time. And T replied...

"u are always so dao towards me, are you sure u wanna meet me? I don't mind meeting you face to face..."K replied "no, I am not someone who is dao... Since u so onz, how about tomorrow?". K was just banging on his chances. He was just asking for the sake of asking her, and by chance asking for tomorrow, K thought that she would have already made programmes...And so T replied "tomorrow I dould be having dance rehersals..."And so K thought "wel, this is all fated, I would not ask her out anymore..."
