ado dua insiden yang aku rasa agak eerie jugak la tentang perkenalan dengan boo dulu...

insiden pertama..

masa tu tawun 2005... aku pi meeting srikandi (alumni skolah dulu) yang diadakan kat putrajaya presint bape tah.. umah vice president srikandi masa tuh.... she is one the high officers kat MAMPU... she's a very nice lady, warm, outspoken (then again, most srikandis are outspoken.. hehehe), and a very good hostess.. i was nobody then.. the only juniors daripada batch end 90's, keje pun poyo2 lagik... (sekarang pun masih poyo.. hahaha).. whereas they all sume batch 60's, 70's, 80's.. and already well established in their life.. the hostess is a single mother and lives with her daughter.

or so i tot..

in 2008, after knowing boo, he said in 2005, he lives there, at that lady's house, taking care of her and her doter since they have no males in the house and no grills at that time (it was the early times when putrajaya was first developed and they lived in bungalow quarters with no gates). That lady turns out to be his mak angkat. Yet, i never knew of his existence then. and neither does he me.

Co-incidence? read on..

insiden kedua...

in 2006, at first i enrolled my ex-sil in a kids theater organized by a brother of one of the srikandis. she turned out to be a nuisance and too lack of confidence so i stop sending her there. but, i went to the theater opening night anyway as a support to the alumni as some of the proceed will go to the alumni. i met with dr. a. samad said and posed with him..

in 2008, in a midst of telling boo that i attended the theater and bla bla bla, he stopped me in the middle of my sentence and he ask..

he : was it the night where dr. a. samad said was present?

me : yup.. why? why?

he : i was there at the back stage playing lead keyboard....

we were dumbfounded for a moment.. goosebumps all over... to think that our path had crossed before without us even knowing it... not once... but twice... masyaAllah.... subhanAllah..

jodoh pertemuan, perpisahan dan ajal tu berada dalam tanganNya... i am grateful for all the lessons that life has taught me.. my sadness, my pain, my loneliness, my joy, bitter sweet experience has molded me into the person i am today... in the early times of our courtship, boo always said if only we've met earlier... but i knew that had we met earlier, we wouldnt be able to stand each other tempers and tantrums then...

we plans... but verily, Allah is the Best Planner of all....

moral of the story... never lose faith coz Allah is the Most Merciful... He takes some coz He always want to give us better.... and indeed He has given me a much much more better husband... :-) syukur Alhamdulillah....
