Its A Love Story

Aku da trlupe pasal citer ni for a few years nw, ttb hr tu teringat blk, tatau knp. Cite lame ni, time aku kecil2, maybe stndrd 6 tak pon form 1 camtu, serious tak ingat.

Aku dulu skola laki dari std 1 smpi fm5, & aku x naik bas, x pg tuition & x brkwn ngn bdk kg. So aku mmg takde kwn pmpn time kecil2. But, my mum slalu bwk ktorg pg library. Kat Ipoh ade library ktorg pnggl Lib Tambun, rsenye mmg tu kot nme die (evnthough cam jauh sket dari tambun, haha). Nwy, aku ngn adik aku yg name Nuh tu adelaa ade kat lib ni. Ttb die dtg bwk kertas pastu die ckp,

"Abg adam, ni budak perempuan kat luar tu bagi"
dulu2, kat luar lib ade stall kecil, dorg jual2 mknn ringan etc.

at 1st I din believe, i mean what does a girl want wth me kn, so i told "Mu jgn maen2"

"Takla, betul", & he hands me a piece of paper. On the ppr theres a house number (zmn tu mnde henset sgt lg, summo we were so young), & a girl's name. The sad part is, I seriously cant remember the girls name. Im willing to do anything to remember, mmg tak ingat. But Im kinda sure it starts with S. Shahida? Suhana? Ntahla. Sigh..

Aku pun ambil kertas tu, & Nuh told, "Budak perempuan kat luar tu yg bagi".

I was quite excited & alot flattered. I mean, its A GIRL! Aku mane la knal kaum hawa ni. Damn sad right. Time nak balik tu, aku usha2 la kat kaunter tu, ade budak perempuan. Free hair. But ade 2 org so I duno which 1, lgpun aku x brenti jln, so x clear sgt. Da balik rumah, mlm tu aku try call die. My heart was pumping so fast that it was kinda hurting, haha.

Then someone picked up;
me: "Asalamualaikum"
she: "Walaikumusalam"
me: "S ade?" (we just call her S since I cant recall her name)
she: "ye saye"
me: "err, saya budak yg awk bagi nombor tadi "
she: "oo, adam eyh." (guess Nuh told something before he took the number from her, some heads up would have been nice huh)
me: "a'aa"

& pastu ktorg borak2 kjap, tak ingat pasal ape, tp aku ingat 1 bende. Line die teruk GILER! I struggled to hear what she was saying. Pas 5 min camtu, we put down the phone. Seronok la obviously, but I felt kinda akward then, haha.

Eventhough I was young, aku taw jgkla spy tak nmpk desperate sgt, so esknye aku tak call, I called the next day. Tapi line tak clear jgk, so ckp kjap je. That weekend ktorg pg library lg, I jenguk2 la kat stall kat dpn tu, tp ade org dewasa je, die takde. Sedih. Aku call la after few days, tp still same, line tak clear. Then the saddest part. I LOST her number. Ade jgk try ingt2 balik a few months later, tp dpt wrong number je. But.. aku takdela sedeh sgt, cz ade number pon tak gune, cz x dengar pon die ckp ape.

Tetapi. Knowing that this person existed, made me very happy. This may sound so lame, but.. Setiap kali lepas solat mase tu, aku akn minta doa & 'wish so that S leads a happy life, eventhough she tak kenal me'. Thats y this is my 1st love story. Its somewhat imcomplete, but it made a great impact in my life.

I came a long way since then. Experienced love, lost it, & found it once again. Iv forgetten abt this for I think 3 years plus, but Im glad I still remember pieces of the story.

S. Wherever you are.. Thank you. In my heart, there will always be a place for you.
