A big carton box addressed to K arrived today. At first, I thought it was some of K's Moleskine notebooks coming from his office in Hong Kong. On closer inspection, i noticed that the box wasn't from FEDEX, but from vpost. I knew K bought a bag for me from vpost USA, so i opened the box. I was expecting one bag, but I got 3!! One work bag, one casual bag and one baby bag... I was so happy I woke C up to share my joy with her. = )
I think K must have felt guilty so he bought me 3 bags. Few weeks ago, we had a tiff that had me in tears. On hindsight, it was kind of stupid. Anyway, to summarize, I was upset that he was spending so much money on his other wife i.e. the MX5. Whilst I had to wait so long for him to buy me a bag.
You see, I had been asking for a bag for the longest time, as my "reward" for going through labor and boring him a baby. One of my friends' husband bought her a really expensive watch when she gave birth to their son. Her husband said it was a gift to her for giving him a baby. I know I shouldn't compare with other people so much, but I can't help it. Plus it's so sweet I want my own husband to do it! But K didn't buy me any big gift despite the many hints i dropped about wanting a new bag / watch. He did ask me to go to vpost and choose the bag I wanted. Which i did. But he never followed up after that, so I was quite pissed that he wasn't sincere about it at all. I might as well just use my own credit card and pay for the damn bag.
I can't remember what triggered the quarreling, but I just broke down halfway cause I felt so hurt that he never bother to make the effort to go and find / buy me something for the past 8 months since Bria was born. But when it comes to spending money on his car, he is so enthusiastic about it. K kept apologizing and went online immediately to shop for my bag, but I kept telling him it's too late already, that there is no meaning even if he get me a gift now. The present was supposed to be given when Bria was born, not 8 months after! To me, if i have to go through all this trouble just for him to buy me a gift, then it's kinda pointless already right?!
Anyway, about a week after that, we went shopping at Orchard, and i bought 2 cheap (about $30) but nice handbags. And now i have 3 more new bags. I think i got too many bags now.. haha.. = )
