tuesdays badminton

joa loves to play badminton on tuesdays with some of our friends. but it's far and it's a weekday. plus i dun really get to play becos i'm bad at ball games so i'm not keen.

we got into a fight about it last week. and i'm tired of arguing about it week after week. so we came to an agreement that he'd go every 2nd week.

today happens to be the week he wouldn't play but a friend asked so he was contemplating. he asked and i reminded him of the agreement. it wasn't so much about whether i'd have to spend a lonely time at the gym. it was just about him honouring our agreement. it took me 2 email replies to assure him that i wasn't upset and he cd go if he wanted. eventually, he decided that he'd prefer to honour our agreement. and reading his email, i felt almost too proud.

so it got me thinking that maybe i shd take badminton more seriously so i can play with him every week. but what's more impt here is us learning to give and take.

gym tonight. *smiles*
