My entire Saturday night was spent with my favourite girls, Izzati, Edlin and Hannah. We were supposed to have dinner with the boys as well but only Oni turned up. The girls planned to have a slumber party so since Oni was the only guys that showed up, we invited him and he readily accepted.

NOT!!

If he did accept our invitation, he would probably be gay by now. Ho ho ho.

Talking about stuffs till 4 am was fun, reminiscing our old days and the many stupid things we did like going steady and that kind of crap. We were so carefree, doing nothing but trouble. After all, making trouble was explainable since we were “still young and confused and searching for our identity.”

Edlin won’t be back till the end of the year. We’re kinda sad cause it’ll be the first Aidilfitri without one of us. It’s a wonder how we’ve managed to keep our friendship lasting till now. It’s been 11 years, yes. More than a decade and we’re still hanging out with each other. Now that Edlin’s shifted back to Tampines, we can truly call ourselves childhood friends since this is where we grew up.

Edlin and I are taking our driving lessons this year, Insya Allah. And I hope that by the time I finish my A’s, I’ll be driving to Prom Night.

Growing up gets scary, but sooner or later, you’ll have to accept it. And knowing that friends like mine will always be there for me, I’m looking forward to growing old with them.
