Chapter 1, Chapter 2

While having such a good conversation with Angel and Cynthia more important trying to create a positive impression, then she called. The whole car fell silent; not a word, even the radio was off. I felt that everyone is the car was all out assault to hear my chat over the phone. Won’t it be obvious that everyone heard what I got to say to her? Come one, bunch of busy bodies, I can’t even imagine, my close friend would off the radio!! Frustration to the max, the pressures of which it did not took long for the rest of the people in the car to notice whoever was on the other end.

The person on the other end was Erin, my girlfriend of 6 months and counting. She left Malaysia for good of which gives me a perfect reason to break up with her. You would not want to imagine those difficulties I faced with her during the course of our relationship. Back to the main story shall we…

Before I knew it, we reached my aunt’s place. Ever quickly, I got out the car with the laptop in hand and headed towards the gate. For unknown reason, my aunt did not open the gate despite the scorching heat of Malaysia, initially. But there it was, the cute little thing screaming in joy running towards the opening gate. That cute little thing was my baby cousin sister, which I am totally fond of playing with. I like playing and talking to her, may be because she was young and wonderful to be with or may be because all the other cousins were of no fun and overly mature despite being around the same age with me.

After passing the laptop and saying good by to baby cousin sister, Harry decides to head for the local mamak for a drink or two. But then, I suggested we head towards the nearby park because I was too darn full to even drink a sip of water. Sometimes it really scratches my head trying to figure out how much Harry can eat and drink, true to words, most of the time his stomach is bottomless. Getting along with that is a challenge itself.

Nothing beats the fun of exploring your inner childhood in a playground. Once out of the car, as usual, Harry will reach for his cigarettes while the rest of us walk in joy discovering our inner child.

At first, we played with man made stone infested walk path, barefooted. It was suppose to be good for you; improving blood circulation and all those crap. Oh well, as a saying goes, what hurt is good, but that short walk was one hack of a pain to forget and definitely not good for me. Harry decided to give it a go seeing that we have so much ‘fun’. He launched his bare left foot first and then ever slowly his right. He stood there froze, his face was squirting in pain, he can’t speak a word, not even a sound. But then, that was not a problem because the rest of us were laughing so loudly making it more than enough noise.

As Harry was trying to move his frozen feet, we moved to the seesaw, playing balancing act and of course who weight more. It was me in one end and Cynthia in the other. Of course I am heavier than her despite losing several pounds; it will be highly unlikely for me to be lighter, though it is not impossible. Later, Angel decides to sit behind Cynthia and in no time they were heavier than me. Despite being up there, it did not make me vulnerable, with swift arse supplemented agile leg action; I was able to bounce the seesaw up and down till it hurts their butt.

Then almost from no where…boom…I came crashing down to earth. To say my butt did not hurt is a big lie. It was Harry; somehow manage to move from the stone infested walk path, which helped the girls to crash landed me.

Later, Harry sat on one corner while I boldly challenged him in a dual to see who is heavier. Sadly he beats me while having both of his feet firmly lifting the seesaw. Cynthia decided to join me in my quest but then we were still unable to lift him. He was laughing so loud while boasting his superior of weight. Because of this, I vow to bring him up on the seesaw and convinced Angel to join the path. With 3 people in one corner of the seesaw, we manage to lift Harry up…that big fat baboon.
