Great Lengths
It's amazing when we think about the amount of trouble we would endure to do something that we love. If your significant other stays in Klang and you happen to shack up in Kelana Jaya, it's never too far.
"Just a couple of tolls", you would say.
But when things go sour, or you just aren't interested anymore,
"Ei, for once why don't you take the bus over" would not be surprising.
Ditto for many other things. Humans lose interest rather quickly, but some things are quite hard-wired, as I mentioned before. Heh. This was the case on third day of KH's visit (the 2nd day was intentionally ommitted because it was family day for both of us). But before that, let me backtrack to the lunch I had with his friend, Oreal, and her boyfriend Friese.
Quite the golden couple. Oreal's fair with a curvaceous body, whilst Friese has a good build and he even wore a knitted shirt with a plunging neckline (!). Real nice people. Easy to warm up to. She was just curious to meet who KH was seeing, so it was basically to pat. Heh. Anyway, lunch was at New Formosa, SS2. We ordered the lunch set at RM98++, but it was more suited for a table of 5. And the fact that the Golden Couple were watching their weight didn't help. Dishes included Longan Duck, Stir-fried Bitter Gourd with Salted Eggs, Steamed Minced Pork with Salted Fish, Fried Tilapia in Home Style Sauce, Stir-Fried Vege Threesome and Ma Poh Beancurd. Served with white rice or unlimited helpings of Sweet Potato Porridge. Lunch ended with Yam Ginkgo dessert. Interesting Taiwanese fare, but I would suggest Go Zha Lang at Jalan Imbi.
After lunch, we rushed off to Vince's (KH's best friend) place at Damansara Flora. He was our second pimp for the trip. The place was a little scary. Nestled deep in the hills near Mutiara Damansara, one can still see the abadoned mines nearby. The place is mostly inhabitated by the lower income group and migrants, hence the tasteful graffitti and overall luin sui feel to the place. Not somewhere you would want to raise a family. Brrr... But beggars can't be choosy. Vince was gracious enough to let us use his personal space. He did his work in the living, while we did our "work" in his room He had his music turned up way high. :P. Quite an experience really, with dog hair coating everything. Who could've thought that one could get a hairball from kissing? :P. So you see, when there is a will, there is a way. Everything else is secondary.
Later that night, we met again at a small bloggers' gathering with my mei, di, Takashi, Apollo, Magus and SK. At the behest of my mei, it was held at Sweet Bean Station, coincidentally the place where KH and I started 7 months ago. Much bitching and catching up until we adjourned to the mamak next door. Since it was a Sunday night, things had to end earlier, so we left at around midnight. In my heart, I was starting to feel sad as I knew KH would have to leave soon.... The great lengths we go through, to be together with the one we love...
