Suib .. busy as ever !!
By noon I was already there at Kafeteria Kolej Multimedia, Jalan Semarak. There were not many people around and one could be mistaken for being at the wrong place. The only assurance that you were at the right spot - at a wedding reception - was songs blurting out from the PA system - even though they were not songs meant for kenduri kahwin!. Anyway, by the time I entered the kafeteria, I could see Suib - inside the hall - making sure that everything was in placed, perhaps. I was glad that Suib recognised me - after all these years! We were together in form 6th. After that we did see each other - rather accidentally - at Central Market 5 years ago!. Since there were not many people around, Suib managed to spend more time chatting with me.
Slowly but surely, the crowd swelled in numbers - mostly from Suib's side. Rahim Othman came much later - just about the time I wanted to leave. I accompanied Rahim for a while and by quarter to one, Rahim and I left for Friday prayer.
I was sure that after Friday prayer, more friends from Batch 73 will be there. InsyaAllah.

Dear Jabar,
ReplyDeleteIts a contrast between Shuib and Rahim. They are worlds apart. Must be the food....
Dear MM,
ReplyDeleteGuessed so but Suib to me was like before. Tapi that day, dia banyak sembang pasai bisnes. Bila sembang dgn Rostam on the phone, ajak jv with him beniaga 'akar ' kayu!
