25th October has always been so familiar to me. The date sounds so perfect. It could be someone’s memorable day. It could be someone’s anniversary, or birthday, or anything. But it certainly a very special day to my beloved Nurul Yaqin and her soul mate, Mohd Redzuan.
My friendship with Eqin did not start since recently. And by ‘recently’ I meant just a few years back. We weren’t friends since high school or primary school or kindergarten. But it’s better late than never, right? So I thanked God that I met the best girl that I share most of everything with at the very end of my teenage life.
In 2002, we talked a few times when we bumped into each other in the elevator. That was it. In 2004, we live in the same apartment but had never really had a decent conversation. She cut my hair once, but it made my face looked 100 times bigger. When I visited Kuantan for the first time with my newly-met boyfriend, I called her for some directions. Seriously, that was it.
Everything started in the middle of 2006 in Uk, few months before we got back to our home land. We became close. I couldn’t really tell when exactly it started but I’m glad it happened. I don’t think we realize how much we have in common.
There are a lot of things we share in common. We love shopping. We can shop till we drop. The good thing is, we have the same habit in shopping. We both go for cheap stuff that looks 100 times more expensive that their real price. And most of the time, we got lucky to get some good stuff in return to very reasonable price. But sometimes, as any other girls, we also adore some real expensive things, like Lancome, Dior, and so on (at least we think that those are expensive brands). So, of course we’ll buy those too, but unlike some people, we have good control on overspending. We remind each other if we tend to go over the limit.
We both have patience towards each other. Before we go out to shop, we’ll both list own the things we want to buy. We’ll both remind each other if suddenly we want to buy things that are not in the list. But, as long as the list is not all ticked, we’ll both go around the mall until our legs hurt. That’s why we can stick to each other that long.
We love to cook. I mean, not really, but we cook when people eat our cooking. We always help each other to cook, though most of the time, it’s her who finishes the rest of the kitchen chores. During our time Uk, we helped each other in the kitchen, of course with some help from cutie Huda and beautiful Sudi.
Those days, we made a good team in term of studying. We had the same study habits, or should I say, almost.. We liked to finish out our assignments earlier from the date line. We were not the last-minute kind. We went to library and had certain goals for the day. Normally, we’d achieve the goal, but if we didn’t, one of us would start babbling.
The day she mentioned about her serious relationship with her soulmate, I wasn’t shock. None of us were. Because we know they liked each other since the day they met. We kind of expected that to happen. What made me shock was when she decided to bring him to meet her parents. Gosh, it was the biggest step!! For me, bringing your partner to your meet your parents means something like maarrriiiaaageee (which I wasn’t ready for that time)..And I seriously wouldn’t think that none of us, at that age, would even think about marriage yet. But I guess I’m glad she has found her real soulmate at that particular time, and it would be such a shame if she let him go.
The day she got married, I was so happy but I was so sad too. My greatest fear was that I would lose her as a best friend, because I had lost one before. I would do anything if I can turn back time to the time when we were so bloodily close. How fast the time flies, it has taken away my sweetest memory.
My Eqin, you are a wife now, and I’m very sure you’ll make a perfect one. I know Wan is so damn lucky to have you, and I know you will make him happy. He is your main responsibility, he is your life, he is your everything, so you better live a good life, ok. If you are reading this, I hope you wouldn’t change. I still need you as much as before, I will steal you from your husband if I need to (Fine! With his permission of course!!) I hope u know that above all, I love you so much, girl. Congratulations on your perfect marriage.
