Forty-Five

I like the way it sounds.
It was raining very heavily today. It was wonderful. I wanted to walk home in the rain together with Zahira, Nabihah, Fathin and Seri, but Lily insisted that we take the bus. She wasn't interested in getting wet, I suppose. I had to beg her (almost).
Me: Yom lah Lee... (yom is a combination of yok and jom, in case you're wondering)
Loi: Lily nak naik bus lahh.
Me: Alah, kiteorang slalu naik bus. Jalan lah pulak!
Loi: Taknak!
OK, so Loi was stubborn and adamant. I had to be smart about this.
Me: I'll let you buy Bubbletea today.
Loi: *instantly* Let's go walk.
So we walked. Without umbrellas, of course, because if we had our umbrellas up, we might as well be sitting in the bus stop. Anyway, we got soaked right down to the bone! Walking in the rain is one of the most brilliant feelings ever. If you've never tried it, then I'm telling you: take a risk, take a chance, and go walk in the rain. It's the best. I even jumped into a puddle (ask the others why). ^_^
We walked all the way to Paya Lebar, but when we went our seperate ways, I snapped my umbrella open and held it over my head. There's just not as much fun walking the rain without having friends to be crazy with.
(By the way, I ate this small chocolate Zahira gave me, and let me tell you, that thing was
absolutely heavenly. Absolutely heavenly! It's chocolate on the outside, but the inside is melted vanilla. The moment you bite into it, pop! The vanilla melts into your mouth. Brilliant. Thanks Zahira!)
By the way, I was a Jamrah today during Fiqh. Strange as this might sound, I actually like the feeling of the rocks hitting my head. It felt nice, somehow. I think I made a mistake of not smiling, though. I figured that I should loo serious, since jamrahs nor rocks don't smile and all. But I forgot that I look
angry when I don't smile.
Mardhiah: *uncertain, as if afraid to throw a rock at me* Allau.... akbar?
I grinned at her to show that I wasn't mad. Then she happily threw it at my head (paper rock, not real rock)
Zahira: *before throwing* please forgive me Dee....
XD
(I should mention that Mas, however, felt no remorse whatsoever. On the contrary, she held up her arm, grinned this totally evil smile, and said "Amik kau Dee!". Then she fired)
