Assalamualaikum :D
Last Sunday, a good friend of mine went back to Malaysia for good. I managed to meet him a few days before he left for a chit chat and breakfast. He was very calm about it. I was actually pretty much alright until the day he left. I had a full day talk by JPA, so didn't manage to see him off at the airport. So I just texted him wishing a smooth and safe travels. He replied a few hours after; when he arrived at Istanbul. Just a two-hour transit before his flight to Kuala Lumpur.
Me : Sedih pulak aku tengok gambar lama. Macam ralat sikit rasa.
'H' : Alaa janganla, aku pun td okay je. Last2 peluk 'B' leleh.
It was a rare occasion that I cried if it's not about studies or homesick and this time, it happened. I was just feeling sad that things turned out this way. When we could have had so much fun here (although it would only be another one year and a half to go). When I just managed to break the ice and made friends with him, he needed to go back. I knew that I needed to understand that this was for the best, but reality hit hard. It felt like I was kind of losing somebody that I was starting to cherish. Macam ralat. sebab baru je nak berkawan baik. Tapi, HE know best, kan ?
To 'H' , all the best at the new place and may our path cross ! Nanti balik Malaysia kita buat reunion. Ajak satu Edinburgh.
