To you and you

  • I last remember lying on your bed, feet sticking out because there were four on the king-size but you said “it’s okay, we always have sweaty people around here”. And so we spent the rest of the earlymorning (till 4 or was it 5) talking and gossiping and learning life in an awkward position. On hindsight, it was oddly comfortable.

 OHMY, the things we do for each other. But then I realise that’s what cousins do. We allow someone to lie on the bed even though they forget to wash their feet and care more about the love affairs of the other instead of their own.

  • When the husband was aggrieved because he thought I had lost my chance of lifetime happiness by placing flowers in the boot and talking to casper because I was pai seh. I knew, because Di told me after the tragic night that S had called her, sounding mildly distressed, and said aiyah forget it la, don’t care already, whatever happens, happens!

OHMY, the things we do for each other. But then I realise that’s what cousins do. We allow someone to lie on the bed even though they forget to wash their feet and care more about the love affairs of the other instead of their own.

Have fun in your new journey,
and remember to take us along with you.
