On Valentine’s Day, Ivan and I went to the supermarket to get a tub of ice cream for dessert after our pizza.
When we arrived at the freezer, I asked him which flavour he would like. He said he would go with anything that I have decided on. After looking at the freezer for 10 seconds, I noticed that the supermarket had a limited selection of brands and flavours.
I thought of getting something that costs approximately RM10.00 to RM20.00, which would probably be a pretty decent tub of ice cream. Much to my surprise, Ivan pointed out the Haagen Dazs Tiramisu ice cream to me because it costs RM28.90 and he is normally very stingy.
He will never suggest for us to buy such expensive things unless I was the one who suggested, and then he would just pay for it. Anyway, I looked at the freezer for another 10 seconds before grabbing the Haagen Dazs tub and dashing to the counter before Ivan could change his mind.
At the cashier, he took out his wallet and searched for some cash to pay. When I saw that all the had in his hands was a RM10.00 note, I said, “10 bucks? That’s not going to be enough.” “Oh then how much?” “Erm… A RM50.00 note is more like it.”
Apparently he did not know that my precious tub of cream cost so much. No wonder he suggested that we took that brand! He said, “Gosh. I am not aware that a tub of lousy cream and milk is so expensive.” “You chose it, not my fault!”
And then I secretly grinned like a Cheshire Cat.
