He...

He turned up unexpectedly, all the way from Kuching. Last time we met was a couple of years ago, I can't even remember exactly when.

He has...matured. Less hair on his crowning glory, much lesser on the top, otherwise he still looks the same. Tall, tan, trim with a pair of twinkling slit eyes and a generous smile.

He's still as sweet as before, soft-spoken and gentle...said I'm beautiful that night...wow, it's been a long time since a guy told me that.

He was a perfect gentleman, always has been...you see, he's a vegetarian (for religious and health reasons)...because the religious reason was there, I had to behave too (dem! haha).

He is passionate about his religion...I had vegetarian dinner 2 nights in a row because of him...

He brought me to meet some friends and associates of his, comrades pursuing similar beliefs. Nice bunch of people...they said I look "different...pretty", ...2 compliments 2 nights in a row? wow! what's going on?

He gave up a life of material things, and came back home from Japan to drive this humane effort 10 years ago.
But it was great, to get to know that "other" side of him...the side he so passionately believe, to help the poor and the less fortunate.

He came, and then he left 2 days later.

I wish him all the best in his noble efforts.

Siapa tu? Sounds so mysterious! Alamak... he reminds me of 2 men in my life who earns less than most women and pursuing noble means....

I think vegetarian could be tough... dunno how Edwin and Li Hoon coped with their vegetarian diet.
