The MCO seriously made us miss a lot of things, like being able to just chill and talk with friends over drinks

Now that we're back to another round of CMCO, it's making us miss each other even more T.T You probably can't even go a day without video calling your bestie.

To help you get over your CMCO blues, we got pairs of office besties to sit down for a chat over a pint of Guinness. But it wasn't just any cincai chat, we got them to talk about their first impressions vs their current relationship.

Prepare for all of the warm, fuzzy, friendship feels, nawww!

P.S. We filmed this video before the CMCO was implemented on 14 October 2020.

Watch the full video below to see their heart-to-heart talk about how their relationship has changed:

Tammy remembered how when they first met, both Brenda and she were so shy that neither said a word during lunch, hahaha

Tammy: "So, we went for lunch together, the first time ever. My boss was like, 'Brenda's new, let's go for lunch!' And we all sat there quietly eating our pan mee soup."

Meanwhile, Suresh and Wei Shen had total opposite first impressions of each other lmaooooo

Wei-Shen's board: 'Shy, good boy, mama's boy.'

Suresh's board: 'Talk A LOT! Like A LOT!! OMG HE WOULD NOT SHUT UP!'

Wei-Shen: "HUH?!"

Suresh: *dying of laughter*

Wei-Shen: "Oh my God, I did not talk so much, okay!"

Both pairs described their current relationship in exactly the same way, awwww! That's how you know they're true office besties <3

Tammy's board: 'Loud and chatty.'

Brenda's board: 'Very noisy.'

Tammy: "You asked us how is our relationship in the office? It's loud. Brenda is always making noise."

Brenda: "Excuse you, both of us!"

Suresh's board: 'Reliable.'

Wei-Shen's board: 'A brother I can always go to.'

Suresh: "This is very similar, man."

Wei-Shen: "Ohhhhhh!"

Suresh: "I was gonna write brother actually."

The boys said that they can't go 20 minutes without talking to each other #clingybesties

Suresh: "I think we can't live with(out) each other (for) more than 20 minutes. If like, I'm wondering where you went, I'll probably text you, 'Eh, where are you?' "

Wei-Shen: "Yeah, I'll probably text you also."

Suresh: "Even on weekends!"

And the girls couldn't decide on who asks who for lunch lolllll

Tammy: "Based on our WhatsApp chats, I apparently always ask her for lunch, and she always say..."

Brenda: "Please stop with the lies."

Tammy: "Screenshots!"

Brenda: "I always ask you!"

Tammy: "This really makes me miss like how, how we used to be able to just hang out, and drink, and just talk to each other."

Brenda: "I know! Maybe we should do this more often."

Tammy: "We should. After this is over."

Brenda: Yeah, after this is all over."
