pregnant, again?!

2 days ago while on my way home from work, i rushed into the mrt just as the door was about to close. while i was balancing myself and holding onto the handrail with all my 'barang-barang' (bag, carrier, etc - ya, very auntie-like nowadays... sigh!), one nice lady tapped me on the shoulder and offered me her seat.

did i feel happy to be offered a seat during PEAK hours in a packed mrt?
of course lah!

but too bad it was for the wrong reason - she thought i was PREGNANT!
Argh.... i could see her eyes focusing on my tummy when she sat back onto the seat... how i wish i could just alight at the next stop - since i can't hide my face, NOR my tummy - or just disappear into thin air... how embarrassing!

i pretended nothing happened (have to, right?) and continued holding onto the handrail all the way back to JE. but in my heart, i gave out the BIGGEST and LOUDEST Sigh!

it really IS that obvious... that my tummy really is bloatingly FAT! :(

and for the record (especially to the AP gal who kept teasing), i am NOT pregnant... again!
