comel sgt arnab tu. (gambar ini adlh hiasan semata-mata)
I was taking a nap while waiting for isya’ when my phone rang. I didn’t recognize the number. Suspens gak. Tetibe suara lelaki, “kenal tak sape? ingat tak... Awla laka fa awla?”.
Yeah rite, like u’r the only person whose said that to me before.
Surprise, surprise. Rupa2nya it was ustaz kamil (do u guys remember him??). He used to teach at SMI Hidayah when I was form 2. I think he taught me feqah. He’s now working at IKIP (Institut Kemahiran Ikhtisas Pahang) as the director of syariah studies or something. I never knew. Pernah je pergi IKIP but didn’t know ustaz was there.
Hmm, dari mane ustaz dapat my number?
Apparently, Nadirah’s sister Syahidah (nadirah was my classmate at school), just enrolled today at IKIP for her diploma. So, I guess she recognized ustaz kamil and approached him. She mentioned that syahadah and I were in uia Kuantan so she gave him my number. Haha, dekat sangat, tak tau plak ustaz kat Kuantan gak (lame2 ingat je yg kak ngah pernah gi ziarah ustaz kat pahang masa trip prs dulu in 1998). It’s been what, like 9 years since we last saw ustaz. Lepas ni boleh la buat pape joint venture ngan IKIP ke since ada contact kat sane. Cool.
Ustaz remembered my name but didn’t remember how I looked (ces!). He said he is much chubbier now. Ustaz dulu kurus je. I remember recognizing his minyak wangi when he walked by but I cannot recall it now. (yep, I’m hyperosmic). I asked about his wife and children? He has not got any children yet. I asked him whether he remembered the other students. He vaguely remembered kak ngah so I updated him on the necessary details. I told him of safura and nizam’s coming wedding and pepandai invited him to the kenduri on nizam’s side. Hehe, suke hati je. It felt strange getting a call from ustaz sebab lama tak jumpa. I guess he was excited to know that his former model student (hehe perasan) ada kat Kuantan gak.
Hmm, moral of the story (for me):

Hmm, moral of the story (for me):
- you never know who u r supposed to meet in this lifetime and when u’ll meet them
- and if u have went separate ways, you may just meet them again in the most unusual of places or circumstances
- sometimes i wonder why i get to know some people whom i end up not liking and then am stuck facing them everyday (I guess Allah wants to test me on how I deal with these conditions. On the other hand, macam la I baik sgt la kan nak tak suka orang. Shame on me!)
- and then there are the people i wish i got to know or got acquainted with them but have never gotten the chance to (not yet kot)
- I guess some acquaintances must be initiated somehow coz u won’t know if that someone u want to get to know will change ur life forever unless u try eh =)
My friend once gave me this SMS which sums up all of this quite nicely,
“In life, Allah doesn’t give u the people u want.
Instead he gives u the people u need; to teach u, to hurt u and to make u exactly the way u should be.”
