The Proposal.

Cahaya & Along @ Oldtown Kopitiam

I can't help not to notice happiness through Along's eyes when Mummy told that someone actually asking Along's hand in marriage last 3 weeks. Along acted normal. Seems didn't care at all. But I know, deep in Along's heart, she actually singing.

I knew about this earlier, few months back. Everyone knew. But not Along. Mummy kept it secret as she didn't want to put Along's hopes high. She will be 32 this year, in April. Maybe it's the best time to settle down.

Mummy just got back from Kuching last Sunday. I can told by the looks of her face when I first saw her at the airport. Frustration. And maybe guilt. Mummy had to carry big news for Along. She pretended like nothing has happened. But, it was so obvious.

Mummy known for her can't-pretend talent. I know she tried her best not to burst the news too early. But like me, Along can smell something was not right too. She confronted Mummy the next day.

There will be no wedding for Along. At least not for the time being.

I was at work when it happen. Along SMSed me.

Good morning!!! I've asked Mak already about orang Sarawak tu coz I got six sense hehehe..... something is wrong... dah nak kawin dah... Mak kata camana tau... Along cakap six sense le plus kiasan die... Mak kata die nak cite pas ni tapi Along dah tanya dulu.

Ohh. I'm so sorry. How do you feel? Are you okay sis? I actually knew about this last few days. Mak suruh jangan bagitau. And I respect her decision. I hope you understand. Are you okay sis?

Kau tanya sedih le lak ada org concern. X pe as I told u I don't want to put up hope until I get kepastian macam ni. Now I can move on. Nasib baru tahu 2 minggu hehe. Along pun dah sembahyang hajat dah, kalau baik cepatkan, kalau x, I've prayed to give the answer to the uncertainty.

Alhamdulillah. Good for you. I hope you're okay. And everything can be back to normal again, without all the tension. Hopefully. Don't worry sis. We always have each other. Kan? Lagipun that guy dah tak kerja kan? Tak rugi lah!

It must be hard for Along. :( I don't know what would be if I'm in her shoe.

I've read from landaklaut about marriage and jodoh. As usual, I think it's more to ayat penyedap hati. Maybe it's true. And maybe not.

From the post,

Jodoh tiada kaitan dengan keturunan. Hanya belum sampai masanya. Ia bagai menanti jambatan untuk ke seberang. Kalau panjang jambatannya jauhlah perjalanan kita. Ada org jodohnya cepat sebab jambatannya singkat. Usia 25 tahun rasanya belumlah terlalu lewat. Dan usia 35 tahun belum apa² kalau sepanjang usia itu telah digunakan untuk membina kecemerlangan.

Jika tidak sanggup untuk bergelar isteri tidak usah berkahwin dulu. Jika merasakan diri belum cukup ilmu untuk bergelar ibu ataupun ayah, belajarlah dulu. Jika rasa² belum bersedia untuk bersabar dgn kerenah anak², carilah dulu kesabaran itu. Jangan berkahwin dahulu sebab kenyataannya ramai yang tidak bersedia untuk melangkah tetapi telah melompat, akhirnya jatuh terjerumus dan tidak jumpa akar berpaut tatkala cuba mendaki naik.

Tell me what you think. :) Have a nice day!
