That Good Ol’ Friend
Last nite I watched sumthin’ on TV which reminds me of a good friend during my teenage years particularly when I was like 18 – 22 years. This good friend was a source of encouragement even though he was miles and miles away. Even though there was ZERO romance relationship between us, we call each other from Malaysia – USA, Malaysia – Sabah (his parents was transferred there for a couple of years so he goes there during his summer breaks before coming back to KL) every once in a while. And each time he comes back to KL, we would meet. He was one of those guys who could actually write long letters… (okay… once every three months or so, haha!)… we would share our dreams together… sometimes making deals about applying for the same job and see who gets it (both didn’t get… haha again!!)… him trying to dig who I was dating… oh, the good ol’ days… Somehow, due to perhaps work constraint or relationships in the making, we were slowly separated although not in total. There was less calls… less emails… less everything. He’s still around… so close, yet so far… but we still appreciate each other… at least, that’s true for me.
