We wore similar coloured outfits in light blue. Hubby and I wore our wedding outfits actually. While both of us had gained some weight over the past year, alhamdulillah, we were still able to wear our wedding outfit. It’s quite a feat for someone who just gave birth about 4 months back too. Anyway – yes, I’m pleased to share that I could wear my old clothes. I haven’t lose all the additional weight gained during pregnancy, but since the old clothes fit well, I guess I must have shed some…
It was a hectic day. Hubby wanted to spend the night before Eid in Rasah, but Mak had asked me to prepare Mee Bandung on Eid morning, so we ended up going back to Rasah after Eid prayer. Meera, my half-sister spent the Eid with Mak and Ayah, since she didn’t go back to Jitra to spend Eid with her Tok. I didn’t take her along to Rasah because I knew she would rather be with my parents since she would be meeting my uncles, aunts and cousins – people she’s already familiar with. To my cousins, Meera is almost like a distant cousin, not merely my half-sister. She gets along well with pretty much everybody. That’s my sis!
Anyway – despite it being Eid ul Adha and not Eid ul Fitri – it was a busy Eid. So many people to visit! And I was scheduled to fly back to Tokyo on that very night. Alhamdulillah, I already had my suitcases packed and everything ready at the back of my car before I went back to Rasah. So after Asar, hubby drove us straight to Putrajaya to visit Tok and join the family gathering there.
Mak insisted on us going to KLIA right after Maghrib – so by 8.00 we were ready to leave in two cars. Abang, my brother, and Syahril, my newly-wedded cousin, met us at the airport to see me off.
Understandably – what with the Milo, kopi Hang Tuah, ikan bilis and what nots – my suitcases were very heavy. The main luggage weighed about 30 kg, while the cabin luggage about 18kg.
Have to go now. To be continued.
