Cold coffee anyone ..?

Unjii ' cold coffee' kudhi .. ? Ais jasti bedhaa , milk salpa salpa... literallly means " one cold coffee please , not too much ice , just a little bit of milk..Ahhh that reminds me of my medical student days , huddled in one corner at the crampy hostel canteen , with my comfort drink whenever I get stressed up with exams or anything else for that matter . I swear nowhere else can you get the best cold coffee day or night , cost only 2 rupees then. 

Similiarly now , after a long day , the kids sleeping , a long operating list awaits me tomorrow , and I find myself going back to the same place , longing for that addictive taste.More so with my machas , tall dark and handsome Mr Slurrpee Greasy , Kiasu Chinaman , Mr Midget the Bean , Mr Tiger , and Muhilaaaaa ( names are intentionally changed daa , less they somehow find this post and start revealing my skeletons. ha ha ..) and me. Hey , we were pretty much 1 Malaysia already back then. Talking bout home cooked food , gym stuff , Gladrags , amoi's ( there was one in particular ha ha , sorry Mr Slurrpee ) , bikes , and what lies in store for us in future. Fast forward that 13-14 yrs to present day , and hey presto ... we didn't so bad after all. In fact not bad at all.We still are close machas till now , although each with our own commitments . Give us a day and each of us will automatically transform into that young studds again , I'm sure. Minus the extra bellies  and spare tires ,of course , :)

My kids are about to have their school play rehearsal soon, daughter doing her choral speaking , son struting his stuff on the stage too. Dad about to have his cataract operation soon after that , and I have to sort a few things for my siblings as well. Seeing my parents last weekend was the best thing so far for this year end , as we managed to catch up on a lot of things , esp my mom.  Dad ,is as usual with his quiet ways just like me , but deep down we know each other well enough that things rarely need be said. Those white hairs are everywhere now , and physically getting slower , but the love remains if not stronger. 

We all had a dinner outing that night , my treat . Very happy to see Dad enjoying his Lamb chop , Mum with chicken chop and everything western the kids and wife would like to have . Me , I had my cold coffee , enjoying my beef steak , but subconciously aware that these may be the few rare happy moments that I can cherish with them . I am afraid of losing them , as I am what they made me of today . Moga dipanjangkan umur , murah rezeki , sihat tubuh badan dan akal fikiran , Insyallah , Amin Ya Rabbil Alamin.Mum and Dad , we love you much.
Macha !!! Unji Cold Coffee kudhi , bega maree , beggaa begga. 
Desperately need one now.
