Small Talk:
I’ll be leaving for Egypt on Wednesday night [6th Dec], and will reach back home on Saturday [16th Dec]. This is just a quick filler post :p
Feeling a sudden crave for a Mars bar, I went to the kedai runcit near my house to get myself some. As I walked up the steps into the shop, I was greeted by a set of the most beautiful derriere I have ever seen this past few weeks. The bent-over beau was picking out some eggs as I was subtly checking her out. The macha at the counter gave me a nudge before nodding at me with approval.
Bloody hell, I’m really losing my stealthy touch when it comes to checking out chicks. She got up and turned around only to face a cheerful chubby guy acting non-chalant. She tilted her head a bit to the side before saying
“Fazri? Hey, its been a while!”
Needless to say, I was stunned. I gave her a second look before realising that those beautiful behinds belong to one of my oldest classmates - we knew each other since we were 11! We also spent a few years at secondary together before going our own ways. I remember having some sort of a fling with her for a while, it didn’t really get far though - but that’s an old story. We exchanged a little chit-chat before a handsome man came over with some bananas and bread.
“Oh, this is my fiance.”
Wow. Fiance. Wow. I heard talks about this girl getting married soon, but I honestly didn’t expect that I’d get to meet her man. We shook hands and it was easy for anyone to see that he’s a really nice guy. I’m happy for her. Although she herself can be a bit of a bitch, sometimes. Nevertheless, it got me thinking for a bit.
She’s definitely not the first of my friends to get married at this age. I think she’s the third one, with the first two getting themselves married overseas. Then there are a few of my own cousins too, who are no more than 2 years older then myself. They are getting married, too.

It kinda feels like I’m standing in the middle of a black circle, and everyone around me is getting married - or at least they’ve gotten themselves attached. Everyone is all smiles, and all happy, and I can’t help but be happy for them, since they are the same people that I love - old flames, friends, family. At the same time, it does make me feel a bit sad.
Just a little bit. I’m sure the Mars bar will make it go away.
