I remember that first time I looked really stupid trying to play a sport that I don't really know. Good thing my friend J was there and taught me the basics. I was really hoping that he'll come and play, I dont care if he will find it funny that I can't even hit that stupid shuttlecock.
He finally arrived after my 1st game and to my surprise, he was happy to see me. I was REALLY happy to see him. Basically, we started to talk like we were old friends but basically it was the 1st official time that we talked.
I remember insisting that he buy a 32GB iPhone via Facebook and my comment was the deciding factor (i think) since his reply was an instant "OK". My friends noticed that we easily connected with each other as we were talking almost everytime between each game. God, I was so happy.
We played as partners for the 1st time and he taught me how to serve and some basics stuff which I probably wouldn't remember immediately if someone else taught me, but since it's him, it was instant.
The day ended when all of us ate at Metrowalk's Yohoos. Interestingly enough, we were both wearing a shade of Orange that time. Afterwards, we went our separate ways. I asked for his number via my friend J. I remember my first ever text to him:
"Hi, this is Nicky, got your number from J. I just want to thank you for helping me at badminton tonight. Enjoyed the company. Hope to see you soon..."
As for the record, the reason why this blog is called My Perfect Orange, is because of his favorite color which is also mines....
