The hardest thing for me to do these days is coming back here and wanting to write more than 140 characters. I've become to accustomed to the confines of Twitter that anything more seems, redundant.
Anyways,
These past few days have been quite volatile. On one hand I saw an inevitable split coming into full circle and on another, I threw out almost all valid considerations and asked my step cousin out for lunch and movie.
But it was funny how it happened. After raya prayers, we went to Auntie Ani's in Shah Alam. It didn't occur to me that she was there. There wasn't any window for us to talk, she's very shy about us talking to each other. So when I went into the dining room, we started texting. Then one text led to another, now it's all down to me calling Auntie Ani to ask her permission and to come up with a reason if she wants one. Or many.
But then on my way out of the house, I looked up and saw her looking at me and we knowingly smiled at each other, like kids on their first day at pre-school.
It didn't stop her from worrying even more about us 'going public' even when I told her again and again that it's just us having a good time out innocently, nothing more.
Or is there?
