Bismillahirrahminirrahim
have i ever told you how we met? although there is nothing special about it. i wish to write it here. so as the years goes by, i could always read this and be reminded of it. In shaa Allah.
well. we met in HTAR Klang. see, there's a reason why i was posted there eventhough during the induction, i was shocked n kinda not willing to go to klang. Allah definitely has better plans. :)
i met him when i was in my 3rd posting, in medical ward.
he was in his 1st posting at that time. so theres nothing magical when we first met. its not even 'love at first sight'. hehe
from what i remembered, i was in the ward looking through at the notes and saw a name, dr nurul najmi.
i thot its supposed to b a girl, so i asked the nurse which is dr nurul najmi. then the nurse pointed at him, and looked, and shocked.. hehe . coz i thot its a girl. heeee.
but then we just nod at each other. thats it
throughout the posting, we became friends. quite close friends i think. cos anything that stressed us out we will text. stuffs like that. honestly during that time i have no intention of falling for him. because at that time i was kinda into someone else. so i barely paid enough attention at that time.
but during that period of time, i knw hes a good guy. despite the busy-ness, he always find his way for solat, and always he would ask me, 'arifah dah solat?'
it really is nothing. but somehow i kinda attracted to it. hehe
and there was one time when we were both postcall, and both of us were doing our discharge summaries next to each other, but i was seriously 'tersengguk ' at the table. hehe. and he said to me, ' nak aku kasi segar balik?' i was cranky of course, and just mumbled something to him, until he actually said, 'bangunla syg..'
i was feeling a jolt of electgricity going through my heart seriously. hahaha.
but the thing that strikes me, was during my birthday, year 2011, when he wished me happy birtthday, i jokingly asked for a birthday gift, and he said.. okay..
well i didnt expect him to come up with a gift honestly.
and my birthday was on a weekend, so the next working day, all of us ( we had pretty much an awesome group of friends during medical posting) went for a dinner together at the chinese rest in shah alam to celebrate my belated birthday. and he gave me my present there. :) it was a watch. its black silver in colour.
hehe. i really loved it, honestly. sampai sekarang pun ada simpan lagi jam tu walaupun dah rosak. hehe
it kinda reminded me of him each time i wear it. well selepas dpt jam tu i practically wear it almost everyday. and the teasing started of course, my close friends were questioning on why he only give it to me. and i wud simply answer cz i asked for it. hehehe. sampai sekarang pun actually tak tahu the reason why he gave it to me. :p
only at the end of posting when i was about to leave the posting, i became more aware of myself. became a bit nervous. but of course, no one knew. heh
when i really left the posting, i kinda miss his presence, so i would be wishing for a chance for us to terserempak and stuffs like that. nak sms, tapi tak tau nak cakap ape. hehe
but there were times when we were in different posting and he ajak teman lunch. its like a dream come true! hehehe :P
slowly after almost 4 months of keeping things to myself, i confessed to my close friends that i fall for him! although i was really scared til i cried . i really dont want to make things awkward. or complicated for that matter. i dont even know if he had a girlfriend back then. but after all the istikharah n prayers, the feeling still wont go away.
if u must know, i confessed to him. yes i did. altho i only confessed through a long text,i was seriously having a massive heart attack while confessing to him. one of the content was, ' pls tell me whether i should keep this feeling or discard it away'
but he took 4 days to reply to it. i was seriously thinking that our friendship must have gone down the drain. after 4 days, i woke up at 6am to his text. a very very short one.. 'pls dont discard your feelings'
and i cried after reading it. hehehe
that was the very start of everything i guess.
we never declared that we were together or stuffs. slowly i learnt about him. eh sorry, i am still learning about him. and although i find him totally different from any guys that i know, im glad its him.
i have never feel calmer than when i was with him. he brings me closer to Allah. thats the one reason why i think hes the one. sure, we've got a lot of differences actually.. arifah byk cakap, najmi banyak senyap. arifah manja sikit :p, najmi serious. hehe
its only months since we became close. although i admitted we were not like any other couples. jujur, tak pernah gayut dalam phone pun. although in the initial stage, banyak merajuk with him sbb rasa dia ignorant and stuffs like that. but slowly, really slowly i become more mature :P hehe. slowly i understood him. he told me dia tak nak bercinta beriya sebelum nikah. :')
kira actually we texted everyday jugak but selalunya sekejap je. because sibuk pun. and kalau call, it wud be sebab yg penting2 and the longest chat maybe dlm 15 minit. lama jugak kan. hehe. itu pun masa i was oncall, and had to go buy something in d middle of night n had to walk alone so i asked him to stay with me on the phone.
but he teaches me a lot. he made me closer to Allah, buat saya insaf diri sekejap. hehehe. and for that, i seriously am thankful to Allah for sending me someone i need, and want at the same time. cuma masa my birthday he is the sweetest ever! i would never have forgotten my birthday this year cz thats the first time i actually feel that he cares for me :P selama ni tak pernah tunjuk kan. hehehe :P
all these while that we are together, seriously boleh kira berapa i miss u or i love u. hahaha. sebab mmg takde :P hahaha.. okay tipu. ada la tapi mmg sikit je. bukan mcm org lain hari2 before tido i love u. hehe
and honestly sepanjang kawan dgn dia, tak pernah sekali pun pegang tangan ke apa kan. thank you for protecting me awak :')
okay. nanti arifah emo kejap lagi ni.
thank you najmi, for being with me all these while, for not giving up on me when i know u could just have given up on me especially when we were both stressed out few months back. thank you for being patience, and for still standing with me.
thank you for believing in me, for willing to accept me who is full with flaws and insecurity at times.
thank you for protecting me, for loving me for the sake of Allah, for never taking advantage of me.
thank you for the friendship, love, happy and sad times spent, there will be many many more to come in the future In shaa Allah.
thank you for accepting my family as a whole, and i will always love yours as i do love mine. In shaa Allah
thank you for coming into my life. slowly, but surely. jujur, at times i still freaked out but i know Allah is with us, and we will build a happy life together In shaa Allah
it is becoming more real now. and the feeling of happy, overwhelmed and sikit sedih sbb takut nak go through a different life altogether. although awak pernah cakap sekali je, this is the moment i believe every girl is waiting for. the journey that we will go through together in months from now, semoga Allah sentiasa berkati dan restui.
but for now, welcome to my life my dear encik kesayangan hati.
semoga sampai syurga. Amin :')
xx one step closer xx
