Things that made me happy, felt funny & grateful to Allah

I was waiting to see somebody for an important financial matter to be settled. I was told to wait till 2pm. I had only a few cash with me, but I was hungry, so looked for affordable food and drinks at a nearby cafe. I sat at a table meant for customers who come in group. There was a lady sitting at the next table. Suddenly, her colleagues (a group of males, young and old) came to join her.

They took the table and chairs next to mine and moved them closer to the lady's. They gathered around her and were busy talking while having their lunch. They must be semi-govt officers since they were all wearing batik shirts.

I sat quietly listening to them chattering and commenting/criticizing each other, while having my own lunch (mee rojak). After the lady had left, they continued chatting. They were also looking at ladies, sometimes made fun of them a little while commenting/criticizing them.

I had finished eating, quietly, and purposely ignoring them when suddenly a familiar male voice called me from behind: 

     "Cikgu di sini rupanya!" the person in-charged of my errand at the bank,

      a handsome lad.

     "Kalau saya tahu, cikgu duduk di dalam (bank) pun tidak apa."

      He continued, smiling.

     "Ah, iya." I responded with a smile too.

All the men at the next table turned around to look at us. The tall and handsome young man offered to pay my lunch. (The guys next table were still silent).

I wanted to decline, yet since I gulped down a mouth-full of water, I only managed to hum my decline. He insisted on paying. So, I let him did so.

The guys were still silent. Were they surprised? shocked? amazed?! But for what reason, I am still wondering. Was it because the handsome guy who paid my lunch?

Or was it because I'm a teacher who doesn't look like a teacher since I was wearing a baju kurung that perhaps made me look more like a makcik (auntie), unlike them who were wearing batik shirt (formal attire). But then, I wore BATIK baju kurung. They didn't notice that I guess hehe..

And then again, kena belanja pula tu.. Oleh lelaki handsome lagi,haha.. During this financial crisis time, Allah showed me how BENEVOLENT HE IS. Alhamdulillah..

The guys next table were still silent (were they gawking at us??? Hahahahaha..). We walked past them for the second time, towards the bank, and they were still silent, still looking at us. What's wrong with them, I thought, with a smile on my face. It was funny! I was trying hard to contain my laughter, hehe.. Eh! Was it because I heard everything they were talking carelessly about just now? Heeeeee....

Forgive me Allah for my sins. Thank you Allah for taking good care of me all this time. You even showed me how to be a grateful servant. It is I who always fail to heed your commands and warnings. I want to be your beloved servant o Allah, so please keep on guiding me to the straight path.

O Allah, You always make me happy, especially during a time of despair. You entertain me with funny moments and You relieve me when I'm in dire need (of help, etc.). Thank you sooooooo much o Allah. Love You :)

Alhamdulillah...
