The first time

So this is my first time writing here. I've decided to write here because I had a thought in my mind saying, "Hey, why not?” So here I go!

Back in 2005, when I was in the form 3, I knew a classmate whom I called Em. Later that same year, she had to move to Malacca with her family. I haven't seen her ever since. But we didn't lose contact though. We still update each other about a little here and there via SMS or e-mail.

So today, Em has finally set her feet on Kajang. I contacted the girls - Atiqa, Belle, Jasmira and Tim - and suggested that we all should hang out with Em. So I got the car key, start the car and went vroom.... to Belle's place and then Em’s place to fetch them. We then decided that we should go to Metropoint since Em was so hungry. So we went to Metropoint and had a tough time to decide on where to dine. I told them about how I used to work at the Secret Recipe and then Em finally said, "Why not kita makan dekat Secret Recipe lah?” So we went to Secret Recipe. I was a little worried since I had only RM 13 which RM 5 of it I'll have to spend for the gas. With just RM 8 to spend on food and drink, I looked at the menu with a worried face and decide not to spend a penny at all. Em then said we should order some drinks because the bill will be on her. So, for the very first time of my life, I ordered Oreo Shake. I finally get to drink Oreo Shake that I've been craving for since the last day I worked at Secret Recipe.

About an hour spent there at the restaurant, Tim and later Jasmira arrived. Atiqa couldn’t make and I don’t know why. She must have a good reason for that for sure. Anyway, we chatted and laughed like we used to do two years back. We took pictures and just had a blast together. I looked at the time; it was a few minutes to 6. I told the girls, I have to go because I have to fetch my sister from her basketball practice. So the girls - Em, Tim and Jasmira - paid the bills and all I did was just stare at them (sorry for being such a cheapskate, I've told you we should go to mamak je, but you all refused to do so). I had to send Em and Belle first before picking up my sister. At Em’s place, we hang around there for a while just to melepaskan rindu. So that was it, the last look of Em, and maybe all the girls for until like a few years since everyone will go their own ways now.

I had fun, really! We all did! It was awesome. Call me kecoh for getting excited about simple things but it really was a blast to finally get together back with the girls. I'm going to miss you all and the moments we had. Take care and best wishes on whatever you're doing with your life.
