So, it has been almost 6 months but the saga ceases to end.
I was lucky enough to catch up with Lucky, as he let me in on his enviable, or maybe unfortunate predicament. Allow me to re-introduce you to the characters involved as the story plot deepens...

Background (Updated):
Lucky now has 2 girls so besotted with him that they are willing to stay in it, even though they know of each other's existence. The fact that they are classmates just makes the whole situation even trickier. You can say Lucky is well... erm lucky... to have the company of two girls but it is proving to be too much of a good thing for him.

A typical week has to be shared with the 2 gals as each vie for his attention and time.
Odds days of the week are dedicated to Bubbly while Pretty gets to meet him on the even days. Sundays are his "off" days but even then, those are pretty susceptible as well.

In fact, it has become so serious that the three of them had already met up before to discuss the whole situation. Now you know how they decided on the days of the week.


Situation (Updated):
The love triangle threatens to get even more complex with each passing day. Lucky is still faced with the same decision 6 months on - Choosing the right girl.

Whatever decision he comes up with, one of them would end up getting really hurt. The prolonged period of company with either girls has helped him to understand each better, but that has only served to make his decision even more difficult.

To say that he is torn between the two would be a serious understatement. The more he thinks about it, the more weight he seems to put on. Stress does not always slim you down, as he has so proved.


Lead Actress 1 (Bubbly):
Bubbly remains as chirpy as ever, the very traits that has Lucky so drawn to her. It appears that the uncanny resemblance to Lucky's ex-girlfriend has become even clearer as she grows horizontally, under his extreme good care.

The way Lucky and Bubbly behave in each other's presence seems like they have been together for years. The rapport the two of them has, it's just incredible.

But, the fear that he has had since Day 1 still holds. And the fact that she is getting more and more alike, both physically and behaviorally, means his fear could well turn out to be founded.

Will familiarity truly breed contempt?
Or will a hesitance to change for something novel prevail?

Lead Actress 2 (Pretty):
Pretty, on the other hand, looks like she has suffered much from the ordeal. She looks a shadow of her former self, with "haggard" probably being a more appropriate adjective now.

They say guys tend to care much less about their appearances once they have hitched a lady, but it seems like the lady is the one who doesn't care much in this case. Or maybe she just feels so comfortable and safe in Lucky's arms that all the dolling up and grooming does not apply to her anymore.

Previous incompatibility issues with Lucky have now been ironed out and Lucky now has her twirled around his little finger. They say the way to a guy's heart is through his stomach, but with Lucky having such a big and impenetrable one, she probably found another way to get around it - His mum that is.

Lucky's mum now seems to take a liking for Pretty more. Her pleasant demeanor, thoughtful actions, and the fact that she always brings gifts when she drops by at Lucky's house, means she now has his mum twirled around her pinkie. Ahhh, the power of parental approval, smart girl she is!

So, what do you think would be his choice?
Personally, I think he has already made his choice, he just hasn't gotten over the hurdle of being the ruthless guy and breaking one's heart.

In my own words...
It's better to enter someone's life, mess it up, and leave quickly than to
enter someone's life, mess it up, stay around, mess up even more, and refuse to leave.
Ahh, why does it sound so familiar? =(

Dude, I feel for you, but there comes a time when you have to be ruthless. Better it be now than later.

Well I'd rather you be mean than love and lie
I'd rather hear the truth and have to say goodbye
I'd rather take a blow at least then I would know
But baby don't you break my heart slow
