our paths have crossed...

"Bismillah..."

Our paths have crossed, more than a year ago. Me, him and 'that girl'.

At that time we were nothing else, but absolute strangers.

I remember it clearly.

We were at the HDB Hub, attending a talk.

I remembered him wearing white baju kurung and me in blue.

I was all excited to see him there cause I already had developed 'something' for him, long before this meeting.

The journey begins, a year later...

I introduced him to my sister, who recommended him to teach, at this masjid.

And with that, me and him became friends.

He shared with me his problems.

He wanted to quit teaching at the masjid. I asked him not to.

I told him to persevere.

He asked me to join him, in teaching at the masjid. I declined.

I was not capable.

'That girl' joined the masjid in February.

And now, he is with her, 'that girl'.
And I am all alone...

Life is indeed unpredictable.
Sometimes you're up and sometimes you're down.

It was never meant to happen... I should have known, where I stand.
The worst part is, I feel that, I indirectly helped him to meet 'that girl.'

So, the journey ends here, for me...

"Ternyata, tiada jodoh antara ku dan dia..."
