Last Wednesday, Sister told me the shocking news - that she was finally transferred to Kelantan. I felt happy on behalf of my parents coz they have been waiting for so long for Sister to come back & stay with them. Mother has had stroke for more than 7 years already & Father recently had lung problems.
But for selfish reason, I didn't want her to leave. Sister came to stay with me in December 2005, when I was pregnant with Iris. She finally got transferred from Sabah after teaching there for 6 years. She has been with me for 3 years now, and I have enjoyed & used to her being around.
Sister has been a great companion to me & an excellent mentor to Iris.. We shared & did a lot of things together. I enjoy her love for cooking (coz obviously I don't cook a lot!) and her taste in fashion. Both of us also love travelling, and together we travelled the world (chewah, padahal paling jauh pun Bandung jer). Among the places we visited were Bukit Tinggi, Cameron Highlands, Langkawi Island, Singapore & Bandung. And there are hundreds other places that we wish we could go, but due to limitation of time & obviously money, that will have to wait!
One of the most memorable moments was when Sister came to see me in the hospital after I delivered Iris. She brought me fresh hot cocoa which was the best I've ever tasted (probably I was extremely hungry at that time) and I cried like a baby when she hugged me (I was in labour room with excruciatingly painful contraction for 16 long hours).
Okay, enough about old memories. Let's snap back to reality. I don't know how I will cope if Sister is not around. But now I know I don't have to think about that anymore. Coz Sister is definitely not going to leave. She discovered that she got posted to a remote school in Gua Musang. And that definitely defeated the purpose of her moving back to Kelantan, which was to stay with Mother & Father in Kota Bharu.
Welcome back Sister! Yeay!
