Made of Honour

Once the minute hand touched 6.30pm, i jolted out from my seat and was out of the office in a jiffy. I brisked walked to the mrt station to catch a train to AMK Hub.

The movie was to start at 7.05pm and i was nowhere near AMK Hub. And what luck, the train halted several times between Bishan and AMK, wasting my precious time. I had less than 5 minutes before the show started. Eugene and Chris were already there, waiting...

Things had to go unsmoothly whenever i'm in a hurry. Damn. Favoured the stairs to the escalators but there was this Indian woman who spoke on the phone, taking her own sweet time down the stairs, hogging it, preventing the crowd behind from getting down fast. Had that sudden urge to push her away man.. Pissed.

At the shopping centre, it was impossible to push my way through on the escalators. Totally filled with people and it's a place for leisure, don't wanna look dumb hurrying up the steps, gaining unwanted publicity.

Reached there slightly past 7.05pm. Went in with them and the show was just about to start. Nice. Hungrily ate the cuffy puff Eugene bought for me while watching the show: Made of Honour.

Ticklish moments were added to the movie every now and then. Really hilarious when Patrick Dempsey [Tom] knocked into the same waiter twice at the restaurant. Should have seen the waiter's expression. So damn funny.

Hit off with a lady [Hannah] he chanced upon during one Halloween night. Supposed to sleep the night with Hannah's roomie but was disgustedby her nauseate and slowly became close friends with Hannah.

10 years later, Tom still continued being a playboy, sleeping with different women each night. Never did one lasted more than 2 nights. Hung out with Hannah very often, taking it for granted that she's always there with him.

Until one day, she had to leave for Scotland for 6 weeks. Without her presence, he felt extremely uncomfortable, totally not used to it. He carried out the same actions he did with Hannah, with other women, but everyone failed him. Convinced he was in love with Hannah, he was going all out to confess his love to her.

Unfortunately, she returned from Scotland with her soon-to-be husband. Shocked and unhappy with her sudden decision, he was wavering with his decision to declare his love. Backed by his good basketball buddies who continually offered him suggestions, once again, he was determined to tell.

Being made the Maid of Honour [MOH] in Hannah's wedding, he learnt the 12 ways of becoming the perfect MOH. Time and again, he tried to bring the topic out but failed to. In the end, just a day before her marriage, there was a Scottish practice to get kisses.

Hannah kissed each man she saw in the bar and they dropped coins into her pot. Then came Tom's turn. Stared into each other's eyes and slowly, their lips came together. Did a passionate kiss and Hannah lost control, dropping her pot of coins. Hurriedly, they scooped up the scattered coins and placed them back into the pot.

Later in the night, Tom did confess a little but Hannah was too upset. She was troubled.

Night fell, day broke. Tom left, unable to carry out his duties as a MOH any longer. Hannah and her bf [who's a duke in Scotland] took the stand at the church. Tom turned around and rode on a horse, back to the church where Hannah was supposed to marry.

The horse ride was horrendous, flinging him off the horse and crashed into the church. Landed flat on his face. Hannah hurried over where he slowly pull himself together and made a love confession. They kissed there and then, bringing smiles to her mother's face. Shocked the entire crowd, even her soon-to-be husband. His parents were furious.

Apologies came from Hannah to the Duke. For destroying the marriage, the Duke delivered a blow into Tom's face. He crumbled to the ground. Haha.. Back in New York, both of them wedded... A happy ending once again.

Sweet sweet love.
