Scene 1, find sight of house, sees Zharif’s car parked innocently up front. Oh, Zharif’s here! He’s a regular fixture at the house these days. House doesn’t even seem to be complete without his boyish charm and lame jokes. Walks in house, to find all lights switched on. Walk in kitchen, to see Kakyun, Zharif, and their friends, Busu and Jay pigging out on leftover wedding food. Mama and Ayah walks in, followed by a hassled Kak Aida who goes straight to her room to charge her dead phone. Light conversation and laughter ensues.

Goes upstairs to shower.

Scene 2, goes down to find them playing guitar hero. Oh I miss the beloved guitar hero. More laughter ensues. Walks into Kak Aida’s room to find a stack of fantasy books to fully satisfy myself and gourmet chocolates! Then walk out, and continue playing guitar hero.

Oh I miss home. The comfort, the love, the never ending support laced with sarcasm and with a ‘I’m right’ attitude at all times. Can I hole myself in the house for the entire week?
