Somehow, after that heated argument with my parents, i found that we r beginning to bond again, Dad has evolved into a more patient, gentler person, while mom knows now what i really wanted, other than the affectionate care she has for me, and the showering of pocket money and treats...I had learned to appreciate 'em more, rather than to take 'em for granted, they really do love me alot, and have always wanted the best for me...All this while, mom has claimed that i had valued my friends more than the family, but that aint true...jz becoz i nv expressed my love literally, not to mention PDA (public display of affection), that doesnt necessary mean i dun lov 'em...Family do come 1st, if anything...
Yesterday i had visited my best friend at Klang, well she doesn't live there, but due to some reason in which i will relate soonafter, she's temporarily staying with her aunt...It took me some 40 minutes to get to her place (u know, jams, inferior roads, too many traffic lights...all in all, lousy navigation skill..), and i nv did like Klang alot, the roads, the homosapiens living there...luckily Jo was travelling with me to keep me company...We brought her to get some daily necessities at Giant (Gal stuff, she insisted that she doesn't like the 'brand' her cousin is using...aint it all the same? Jz a pad wat...lol)..After that she in turn brought us to this nearby Seafood restaurant for dinner...(we didnt go for BKT afterall...what a bummer..)
We ordered this dish they call it 'Hei Gou' (i dunno the english-equivalent, but it's some kind of hideous-looking prawn), some crabs fried with something black and sauteed, then a big plate of gigantic prawns and some vege...The food was Comme ci comme ca...(So-so), but the price came out at RM122, they said that is standard price for seafood, but i thought i'd rather eat at Dave's, or Seed, or Just Thai (@1-U) for that price..(though eating at Dave's shd cost more, but im really not a seafood-fan..).
So while we were eating, my fren started relating her ordeal to us, apparently her dad has gone real mad this time (ive met her dad, he is a sullen-looking fella, with great pride of himself)..Her dad has never approved of her relationship with her bf, and that night, he had witnessed the bf's family sending her home...he got so furious that he started using his fist on her, and kicking her at the same time...Ive seen her bruises, and it was really hard for me, it broke my heart that she shd be given this kind of treatment...what has she done? Cant she be with someone she loves? Apparently the father didnt care of nothing 'bout love, he dislikes the bf jz simply becoz he's not highly educated...He felt ashame that his daughter should be with someone who cant speak proper english, who cant recite Einstein and Newton's thumb of law, who doesnt know algebra and calculus...I had to hold back my tear when she said the father had asked her to leave and nv to see her again...is there no love anymore?
All i can do is to give her encouragement, she seemed fine and doing well, i guess she's relieved now that she can get away from home, she didnt want anything to do with her old man anymore...I know im gonna support her whatever her decision maybe...
One of the commandments: To honour thy father and mother....is it possible all the time?
Do shed some light on me, Lord...
