Saturday noon while shopping for carpet in Abu Dhabi, my handphone ring:
“Tini, macam mana?”
“Macam mana apa?” i asked back
“U kan hantar N balik semalam, so apa cerita?” he asked back.
“Alahh..aku busy tengah beli carpet ni, nanti i call u back..” that’s my answer and thereafter i forgot to call him back.
Sunday morning my mobile rang and i saw his name. Alamak, just remember i suppose to call him back yesterday.
“Tini, i need your help”
“Apahal ?” i ask him
“Can u ask N out for dinner tonite”
“Cannnn.. memang kita dah planned pun kan last Friday” i said.. So, eventhough i was quite busy today and a bit tired after full scheduled weekend, i decided to go ahead with the dinner as per our plan earlier.
After confirming the dinner with N, sent email to both of my friends
”Malam ni dinner kat Burjuman pukul 8.45 malam.. i ambik N pukul 8 kat mirdif so sampai sana lebih kurang gitu2 la.. makan kat mana nanti decide la yekkk. Ali, ko kena datang sekali kalu tak nanti aku jadi lamp post kangggg.. so aku dating dengan ko biar abang sohaimi kita dating ngan gadis idaman... bye bye”
So we had dinner tonite, 4 of us. It’s amazing to see how falling in love can transform people. My friend is still acting like himself but at the same time he seems different. Love is blind but yet, is love really blinded people. I always remember what my friend Pris used to say ”i like the feeling when I just started to fall in love, it’s so refreshing”. Yes, it’s true, it’s a refreshing feeling.
And tonite i saw it in my friend eyes. I saw happiness, I saw hope, I saw a person in love....
