“Love is that condition in which the happiness of another person is essential to your own.” ― Robert A. Heinlein, Stranger in a Strange Land

Salam.

Last 9th of May, our marriage reaches happy 6 months. Alhamdulillah. Yet, still a long way for us to go.

Funny when I'm waiting to pickup Aisyah from extra class (yes I still do the chaffeuring Aisyah chores sometimes), Abang called. The conversation as follows:

Abang :  B, Nape semua orang cakap B ngandung ni? B ngandung ke? Abang tak tau pun?
*dengan nada risau dan serius
Me : Abang,  B pun tak tau B ngandung? Macamana orang lain boleh tau B ngandung ni? Siapa diorang tu?
*laughed
Abang mentioned his aunts and the scenario why it came out.
Me : Abang cakap je lah InsyaALLAH. Mana tau makbul kan :)
Reason is, I put a picture of us reciting du'a in Instagram. Whereelse I put the pic because we're doing the same action & it's our solemnization picture. They thought that it's like ALhamdulillah, after 6 months of waiting kinda thing. You know. Somehow, thinking of it, it's funny. Makes us feel like a celebrity for a while. hehe.

I dunno what to answer when people asked me this question. I know, I have to answer the question calmly. So I answered, InsyaALLAH instead. As it's like du'a But, there was once, by answering 'InsyaALLAH'
people really thought I am pregnant and it is wrong to spread wrong news. Then, how...? maybe you can suggest me how to answer nicely.

We do went out to have dinner date - I really need to find some new spot.

Have you tried riding a boat? That's how marriage is. Sometimes bumpy, sometimes the flow is just nice & you get to enjoy the view.

 Kalau tak ikhlas, buat apa pun tak jadi. Usaha doa tawakal. “The happiest people don't have the best of everything, they just make the best of everything they have.” :D
