Fatilah gave me the shock of my life when she called all the way from UK. It had been like 25 years since we last met. And that was just the beginning.....
To cut the story short (as not to bore you...), I was stunned the second time when Fatilah told me that she was in Coventry, UK. Yes, Coventry. That was the place that I had been intending to go to for my sabbatical. I eventually made it to the UK and stayed with her for nine months. Yes. I stayed with her for nine months. The nine months period was a bliss. It changed my life.
Then the planning started. Fatilah managed to get so many of our classmates into FB and succeeded in making Rais planned for the reunion. Rais, Rosman and a few other friends joined heads and hands to realize something that seemed almost impossible.
By the time the venue and date were decided, I was already in Malaysia leaving Fatilah and her family in UK. Departing UK was not easy, and so was not to be with my family.
So the day came last 29th May 2011. 22 of us altogether including Fatilah herself. She made the surprise appearance. I was not surprised as I had known all the while.
I am posting some photos as I am not good at words to describe the moments and feelings and emotions...
The four of us Sahila, Harsa Amylia, Norfatilah, Fatimatulzahra; thus SAHANOFA.
I have no words to describe as all I could do is lay back and mesmerize each time I see this photo. Only God knows the feeling.......
