Assalamualaikum and good day everybody.
It was around 3 weeks ago that I got a request from a girl saying that she wanted me to write about her, here in this blog.
I can't say no this time - actually I already went all EHHHHH ? before that. Here you go. A piece of something that I recalled from the past.
When I was in my college doing my IB, there's this one girl who loved to stick together with me. Everywhere I went, she wanted to follow or she would ask me to come along with her. Did I produce too much pheromone or something? I mean she was one of the students' body representatives and I had to follow her to the office, meeting all the staffs for this and that. It was somehow awkward because I just didn't know how to have a conversation with older people. And there she was being all chatty with them.
After that, she kept on saying sorry because she had to drag me along with her business. But that's fine. I had nothing to do in particular - literally. Even though I should be studying, _____________. Please fill in the blank.
I was a netball player back then and this girl was my partner in the court. The one who always backed me up because the opponents were targeting me (thanks to my small build) and thank you for that. When I was injured, she was the one who was so concerned about me. Every morning and night she would put the oilment and bandaged my knee while babbling all along because that's the way she was. She was more worried about me than I did. I was more excited to Google where's the nearest Domino's Pizza and ready to make an order. *grin* Domino's was my Cocaine back then. Even when I was fully recovered, she's still concern about my left knee. Thank you for that.
She told me that I was the one who taught her about Domino's Pizza. Well, I think that I was the sifu for everybody or most of the girls in college about that. And then all these girls spread it to their family members. Haha. They came to me whenever they wanted to order pizza or if they didn't have the coupon. I don't know whether it is a good or a bad thing, but... pizza is love. Pizza makes people happy.
A&W was my favourite as well. I mean just the Coney Dog and the root beer. I would prefer A&W than KFC, McDonald, etc. I could still vividly remember at the end of my semester 3 in college. It was after the Mathematics examination. I was so so so down because I couldn't answer it well to the point that if I was an anime character, I was all white, shrunken and there was all these black and dark blue aura surrounding me. Not to mention as if my soul was coming out from my mouth. Then this girl with few other girls from my class forced me to go to A&W with them that evening. They even informed the teacher that we're going to come back a little bit later than the curfew that night. Girls, you know who you are. Well, thank you for that.
Every meal time, she will drag me to the dining hall or will tapau the food for me whenever I was too lazy to change my cloth and walk out from my room. She will be the one sitting in front of me, covering me from the boys' side literally and most of the time I had to wait for her to finish her meal because she eat slowly or was I too fast?
While we were in our final semester in college, whenever I was too saturated with studying and would like to take a break, I would go to her room and take her tablet, playing this one game about arranging the wooden blocks... I never knew what's the name though until the battery ran out. I played and played and unlocked so many levels and she was surprised because she always gave up in the first few levels. I think that because I love puzzles and my imagination's quite high. Girl, thank you for that.
There was this one time, you were the only one who brave enough to come and talk to me face to face when everybody else didn't have the guts to tell me directly about it. That's what true friend is. Thank you for pointing out my mistakes.
There was one time as well during BTN, that one night where everybody was scared to even greet me as I emitted this black-don't-come-near-me aura, you're the one who gathered your strength and came to talk to me, apologizing to the point that you were almost crying... or did you cry? You said that you couldn't bear not talking to me. Sheesh girl. If I was a boy in a manga, I will blush and cover my mouth while looking to other direction. Thank you for that.
I was always told by you that you never met someone like me. Whenever you say you would like to go somewhere, nobody will say yes immediately, without pause or giving excuses, just like I did. Back then in college, there are times when we went to T1 especially on Tuesday because the dinner was... ikan Beranang... and we had tom yam and telur dadar instead. Plus, nasi tambah satu. There was always fresh orange bungkus later for supper. Of course, I would love to do that again with you. Thank you for always inviting me.
Before I left Malaysia one year ago, you came to send me off, with all your family members. Even it was just for a while. . I really appreciate that. Thank you once again.
It is already passed 12 midnight in New Zealand now. Well girl, happy 21st birthday and may you have a good one despite having examinations on the same day. *insert all the cliche birthday wishes here*
Our last picture together on final day of BTN. Take care there. All the best for your exams ! See you when I see you. Oh ya, thank you Nadzurah Hanim for this picture. Teehee.
p/s: sorry with the manga/anime influnced because I still can't get over that Naruto has officially ended.
xoxo,
nadi
