Unlike You, I Am.. #2

Like I said before, life has it's ways to make fun of me.
I am just a puppet in this stage. Pull a string, I lift my hand. Pull another, I smile. Pull all, I don't know what will happen. I never play the string puppet thing, but you got my idea. Or I assume you do. Whatever.

I had a boss who lived very near with their parents. She once said to me;
"Akak tak boleh duduk jauh dengan mak akak. Dari kecik, tak pernah berpisah jauh dengan mak akak. Suami akak pun macam tu jugak,"

My heart whispered,
"When I get married, I don't want to live too near with my parents. Such a loser, no? Always needed to be near with parents and all. I want to live with my husband, just the two of us. Romantic, isn't it? There's no need for families to be so near. That would be annoying,"

And then years passed and now a string has been pulled. The audience is laughing. Not just a typical laugh, a laugh with tears! Yeah, go on. Laugh at me.

You know what I am going to say.

Now that I have settled down, I need to be near with my mother. I need to check on her every now and then. I just have to be there for her. My house now is about 20 minutes from hers. Pretty much the same with my mother-in-law house. Yeah, if my past me is looking at me, she would say I am pathetic. The present me also thinks the past me is pathetic, so, we're even. Whatever.

Time does that, don't they?

At one time, one thing seems the right thing to do, at another, it is a very wrong thing to do.

Time.
Wow.
Not only it flies, it pretty much creates a different being.

Macam Mana Boleh Jumpa Si Dia?

Masa : Dua minggu lepas, lebih kurang.

Lokasi : Majlis Resepsi Kawan Lama Di Sekolah Menengah.

I was looking forward to this wedding. One, because my dear friends that I have not met for years will come. Second, they were always there for me during that time - the time where I was so broken up and shattered and pretending to be strong while crying in silence. Well, you got the idea. Third, Forth, and so on; redundant to One and Two.

The questions everyone asked was "Oi, bila kahwin?,"

"Seriously? Dah lama? Tak tahu pun,"

Well, I stayed away from Facebook before. That would be another story. Haha.

And all of them wanted to know how my husband and I met.

Siap duduk atas lantai buat circle.

It was a long story - how we met.

And during the half of the story, my husband ajak balik. He had headaches that day.

So, I didn't finish the story of how we met. My girlfriends were devastated but they know that I have someone I need to answer to.

Think my story is long?

Do watch How I Met Your Mother then.

My story is no match for that 9 season TV Series! Gotcha!
