(i wrote a long story yesterday and it got lost, so im juz gonna write a short one, if i can help it)
yesterday i met with fiza and syida at darussalam. it was so exciting! i was part of this clique in srk subang jaya (the greatest school ever!!) which consisted of syida, fiza and aira. aira didnt come cuz, as always, she was nowhere to be found.
altho the four of us were close, aira considered me as her best friend. out of all the dumb things we couldve done as kids, we did the dumbest - aira insisted that i draw papers (which has their names on them) to determine who would be my bestest friend. and i got aira's name. so aira and i were best friends. (we thought we were grown-ups being in standard five but evidently, we werent heheh!).
but actully syida was the closest to me cuz syida was more like me - we didnt feel like climbing up the social ladder back then. but i couldnt tell aira that cuz i knew she would flip! u know how kids are these days - first, ure their bestest friend in the whooole world but once if they decide to stop being friends with u, they would pull everyone to turn their backs on u and u'd be left alone, friendless). and naturally, being an 11-year-old, i couldnt risk that!! i though the 3 of them were my world!!
i juz couldnt keep up with aira cuz she was always so popular (even with the seniors), always into boys, the coolest clothes and shoes. i remember aira instructing me to wear the right type of clothings cuz she didnt want to be embarrassed to be seen with me. but being ME, i juz couldnt do it. i was never cool, i juz couldnt bear to ask my parents for $200 worth of dr martens boots!
now we're all grown up and fiza's getting married in less than 2 weeks!!! im so psyched!!
i think fiza is one of the strongest person i know personally. her dad left out on her and her family for another woman when she was very small. he didnt even pay nafkah to them. they had to publish their story in the newspaper cuz thats the only way to make him sober up and pay alimony!
and her mom couldnt work cuz shes always sickly. she had to drag an oxygen tank wherever she went! but her mom managed to bring up her family and now both of fiza's elder brothers are married and shes tying the knot really soon.
but her mom passed away half a year ago, shortly after she got engaged.
i cant even THINK (let alone IMAGINE) of my mother not being there when i get married!!!!
so i salute my dear friend SHARFIZA AZIZ for being the strong woman i know shes destined to be. im really happy for u mate! will be seeing u in ur wedding dress on 5 june!
