your text pricked my eyes with tears.
i knw that you love me, but i dint know that it was this much.
i knw that you are working hard for me, but i dint know that it was this hard.
because ayah wanted it earlier,
achap took me out to purchase our crib.
and all the places that we visit, all the sales person never fail to tell me, how lucky i am to have achap marrying me..
and all the places that achap took me to, all the salesperson never fail to tell him, that it takes a lot for him to be abl to put up with me, to love me..
i am that difficult.
and because you said you are still in love with for all the imprefections, you taught me to compromise..
while i have the say to what bed frame i want, he has his say to what matress he wants.
achap pesan - no matter how much you hate the service and the things you are going to see, remain polite. kita ada adab.
it was not easy.
while its important for him to have good sleep for the crazy shifts he work, he wants a good matrees, no matter how hedious it looks like..
i was more concerned for the prints on the mattress and the color of the brand labels sewn on the mattress.
when the lady asked - why dont you like this, miss? this is good mattress, and your fiance likes it too.
i looked at the lady then to achap and said - i dont like the purple label sewn on the mattress
the lady said - but you are to going to put on fitted sheet or mattress cover, so the purple label wont be seen.
achap interrupted - nevermind, let her be..
the lady said to achap , as i walk away - wah...difficult ah like this..
i turned around, and saw achap brought down his gaze and smiled to himself..
when the man said - this is a good bed frame.. and i knw you like this..
i went closer and said - the squares are not prefect, and he will pay for this bed frame now, if you can promise me to go extra mile to ensure that the squares are perfect.
the man said something to achap, which i heard achap replied - as long as shes happy..
once again, i saw him brought his gaze down and smiled to himself..
even when ayah said - jangan layankan sangat yatea tu, shes angry most of the time, for no apparent reason.
he looked away said, prolly the same way ustaz had said to him - takperlah..ini baru sikit jer..biarlah
was that defeat on his side, many poeple might think so..
but id say, its his way to teach me to accomodate. our lives together, is not all about me...
while the hut is not gonna be ready in years to come, he had already pre-empt me of the diferences that we may have when we shop for things...
he had said - leave the electronics things to me..and you can buy all the other things you want, and i wont interfere..
but because i am that stubborn, i butt in, everytime he looks for washing machine, dryers and refrigerators..
i insist on a washing machine that has a dryer, without having to buy a separate one altogether, which will only make my kictchen look like a laundry..but he said - things like that doesnt stand the length of time.
i insist on refrigerators that has ice banks, which has two doors, which can fit the both of us in, when we play hide and seek..but he said, we have to look for ones that are energy savers...
i have many more lessons to learn.
many more.
and i am glad hes one patient teacher.
i am once, injected for food poisoning. it could be the tartar from the filet.
but achaps sending a packed of hot bubur ayam frm airport's canteen.
thanks love.
