A friend said I looked good with long hair, so...

A good friend?

Yes, she was quite an influence...

You said you liked my songs.

Sing one for me.

I know them all.

Which one exactly?

Earth-shaking love!

We were so crazy. We were so enthralled.

Sorry!

Some songs do...

bring back memories.

Mind if I ask you a question?

Ask away.

Back then in Kowloon City

all the girls were crazy about you.

In that neighborhood...

you must have had a lot of girls?

I mean... you must have known a lot them?

Which was your favorite school?

Holy Family Canossian College?

Pink shirt with a grey skirt.

Excuse me, Ekin.

The director wants to go over that jump.

I'll be right there.

Sorry about that.

It's OK, you touched it first.

We were so crazy. We were so enthralled.

Our love was so earth shaking.

Damn! Don't rub it in!

I was waiting for the elevator

but I forgot my phone.

When I got back in I heard the phone ringing.

That means you're still at home.

I'll order when you get here.

GK. bye!

Baby!

Weren't you supposed to be in Bali?

I was, but something's wrong with the Bali airport.

So I decided to keep you company.

I'm coming... go inside.

You're going out?

I was about to grab something to eat.

Almost here?

- What?

- Food is ready.

- What?

- Food is ready.

I'll be right out.

Sorry, the person you have called

cannot connect right now.

You're connected to voice mail.

Are you done?

Almost.

You didn't need to bring it over, it's so far away.

It's OK. I haven't been here before,

I'm bringing you food to show my support.

Are you rooting for me or checking up on me?

There are no pretty girls in electrical engineering.

What about your ex-wife?

She studied foreign languages.

When did you divorce?

You haven't dated since?

Once bitten,

twice shy.

I'm scared of wasting my time.

I'm 44 and I want a home

with a wife and kids, maybe even a dog.

However busy I am, I'll find time for my family.

Before I met you,

I'd given up...

the hope of having a family.

But you... make me feel hopeful again.

You should go back to Hong Kong.

Why?

Paul and I are fine.

He's right, life is short.

This is the time to work hard.

I don't mean that.

Then what?

You're picking the same car, the same woman.

Why don't you just go back?

One gets sentimental sometimes...

You won't understand; you're fickle...

What don't I understand?

I'm not a user like you.

You're a consumer.

Do you even know what I'm talking about?

What?

Let's get this straight, I'm talking about the car.

So am I.

What a coincidence!

Really...

Buy it. You've already made up your mind.

Let's go.

I'm goil"I9-

This way.

I choose to go my way.

What's with you?

What?

What are you thinking? I think you're...

None of your f***ing business.

F***! What a waste of time!

Pink nipples are rare.

You don't know a f***ing thing!

Have you been here long?

A while.

What did you tell her?

About what?

Why you're going away.

I said it's team building.

What if she calls Eunuch?

I told him not to answer the phone.

What do you think?

Better than Viva Villa Love Motel.

This is so unlike you, big spender.

Actually...

I was here on a shoot

and the owner gave me a coupon.

You're so cheap.

You're such a cheapskate.

Isitready?

Almost.

Hurry UP!

Close your eyes.

Why should I?

Well?

You bought this in Beijing?

My colleague brought it from Hong Kong,

on ice and hand-carried.

What a pain!

Is this sweet or what?

It's OK.

- Can I ask you a question?

- What?

Now don't get mad. Just answer me honestly.

What?

When did you decide to cheat on me?

F*** you! How many times did I tell you?

I didn't cheat on you.

Hey, you and that uncle...

Enough! You and I had split up by then.

Besides, his name is Sam.

Forget it!

What do you see in this uncle?

I don't know...

Maybe from the get-go,

I wanted someone completely different from you.

Meaning?

Someone who can give me a sense of security.

I asked him when he fell in love with me.

He said when he was driving me home one night,

We saw someone washing their car.

What are they doing?

Washing their car.

No way! At this hour?

It's cheaper.

No way! Have you seen CSI?

CSI.

Obviously...

they're destroying evidence.

Getting rid of blood stains or DNA.

I don't think so.

I'm sure! When someone gets suspicious,

they'll say they're washing the car.

Because of that he fell in love with me.

He said I was very different from his past.

I couldn't stop crying when I heard that.

But he didn't get it. He thought I was moved.

You know why I cried?

I was looking for a guy different from you,

only to realize I've become exactly like you.

It was really scary.

I didn't realize the influence you had on me.

I tried so hard to quit Jimmy.

But in the end...

I became another Jimmy.

Hey...

What?

Let's take a bath together.

I'm being serious.

Can't you get your mind out of the gutter?

What?

Taking a bath is warm and romantic.

You're always thinking about that!

Why are you fixated at my body?

Stop it! That's enough!

Show me some respect.

- Don't take it out on my body!

- You're out of your mind!

- I have feelings too.

- Shut the f*** up!

I have a soul too. I need to be loved.

This is crazy! You do this every time...

Are you taking a bath? The water is getting cold.

What is it?

She crashed her car.

Is she OK?

She hit a lamp post and sprained her wrist.

She just left the hospital and is at home now.

I'm sorry.

Please don't go.

I must check on her.

But you promised to stay with me.

I'll come back as soon as I can.

I'll come right back if she's OK.

Once you're gone, you won't come back.

She just had an accident.

She's not dead!

She's home with a sprained wrist.

I have to go see her.

Of course...

After all, she's your girlfriend, Mr Jimmy.

I'll hurry.

I don't know why I've been perturbed lately.

Since when?

Since I met Miss Cherie at the restaurant.

I'm not sure if you have noticed.

I've been texting you more often.

I didn't want to bother you at work before.

But lately, I've found myself texting you

and waiting for you to text back.

Traffic wasn't heavy just now,

but I was anxiously checking my phone.

When I dropped it in the car,

I knew I shouldn't pick it up,

but I didn't want to miss your SMS.

So I reached for it anyway

and I crashed my car.

Please don't go.

You're connected to voice-mail.

Please leave a message after the beep.

Don't bother to come back. I'm leaving.

Don't bother to come back. I'm leaving.

Perhaps you never intended to come back,

because you already made a choice.

I confess I can't get over you.

I often ask myself what you've done for me.

I can't think of a single thing.

Yes, I love you.

I love you so much.

But it scares me.

You said we needn't do everything in one night.

But I'm telling you, if you don't do it,

you may never get a chance to do it again.

Jimmy,

please let me go.

Don't call me again. Just leave me alone.

I love you, but so what?
