My friend, Eza, sent me a giggle this morning. This picture. The best part was the subject: “The Making of Gerak Khas The Movie 3”. Thanks, Eza. She had no idea that she actually opened the flood gate of memories of my grandma. And tetiber rasa rindu. And I just realized, she is the ONLY grandparent I have left! My grandma, that is. Not Eza. Syeeeessshh, read carefully.
I don’t see my achamma as often as I should. Heck, I don’t see my hubby as often as I want. Let alone my grandma, or my immediate family. I think it’s fair if I am banking on the posting to KL to see if I would do what I said I would. To have visits with my family as often as I should.
Ka Cher once wrote in a card she sent me circa the fall of my previous relationship:
“God said: Mintalah. Maka Aku beri. Tapi Aku uji.”
“God said: Mintalah. Maka Aku beri. Tapi Aku uji.”
I am asking.
Malayam Vocabulary:
[ammamma] maternal grandmother
