So, after that.

This is what the (almost) 30 year-old woman did.

She started talking to her dogs at home and fed them. She took a warm shower and changed into casual. She took a bus to the town centre, jumped the queue at a Japanese restaurant by accepting a counter-seat, and had $12 worth of sushi. During that time, gazing meaninglessly into the backs of sushi chefs preparing sushi made-to-order and slabs of raw fish. She decided that she was not hungry anymore, but neither was she full. She thought she would go try out the new ice-cream kiosk in the same mall. She sampled 4 flavours - Honey Lavender, Seasalt Caramel, Almond Longan and Earl Grey - before deciding on just one scoop of Honey Lavender. She walked one bus-stop distance while savouring her ice-cream. Then, she stopped at a playground and sat at a bench, looking at two girls play, still spooning lavender-scented ice-cream into her mouth. By then, she had lost the constipated feeling and almost, the moodiness. She texted her best friend, her occasional bitch buddy. By then, she's almost 'nursed' her moodiness back to normal. Entertained and distracted, all by herself, and all on her own expenses, too!

All this while, the boyfriend just stayed away and tried not to add fuel to a dousing fire.

It is my belief that the boyfriend got a pretty darn good deal by having such a woman for his girlfriend. No need for flowers, no chocolates, no expensive jewellery, not even nothing.

The best thing? The 30 year-old woman has always been someone who gets distracted rather easily and hence, forgets rather easily too. Much to the advantage of her boyfriend. That, again, is just my opinion.

Yes, the 30 year-old woman has also always been opinionated.
