I just wanna share a short personal story . Hehehehe.. :p
It is a quite funny story and one of my unforgettable moments ever .
I don't know why, but since that happened, I always giggle every time I see or eat these two :
THE OVERRIPE BANANA
AND
TEMPE BACEM!
So, here goes the story ..
One day, I had a friend who got hospitalized and of course, like all of the patients there, he was advised to control his diet . Then, almost every day, the hospital gave him menu of "TEMPE BACEM" . At first, he just stared at it and I began to tell him that TEMPE or TEMPEH was one of Indonesian traditional side dishes made from soy (fyi, this friend of mine aren't Indonesian hehe..) . He then tried to eat it, but ONLY TO SAY : Gading, I think I DON'T LIKE THIS KIND OF FOOD . O_____O
I was shocked getting his response like that, but instead of asking "why" I said : well, I LOVE TEMPE! and then took that tempe bacem, nom nom nom, I ate it PROUDLY!
BUT!
I guessed my action was too much . I realized and began to regret it because on the next days, every time he got another TEMPE BACEM menu, he left it, not for anything, just FOR ME! So I could eat it, because I said I LOVE IT! HAHAHAHAHAAA.. :"D
It's weird you know, but funny too!! I never get any food left for me before (for some reason), even from my family . So even though I already had lunch in my campus before going to hospital, I couldn't refuse his offer to eat that tempe . And I still can imagine his smile when he said he had been waited for me so he could see me eating the tempe . That was just ... SWEET! >.<
Hey hey hey, don't think too far soon . It was just my feeling on that time . He was sick, you know . He needed a support and just by seeing his smile I knew he would recover soon ;) And of course I was happy knowing that it was me, the reason behind his smile..
So, still with the same person, and still during his staying in hospital . One day, when I came to visit him, I looked a banana in his table beside his bed . I wondered why he didn't eat it . It must be not because he left it for me too, right?! -____-"
I took the banana and peeled it in front of him so he could see and might be he then wanted to eat it right away . Hellooooo, you were sick and banana would give you a lot of vitamins to your body, Sir! I said it on my mind . He looked interested and took the banana, but just before he put it inside his mouth, he said : Gading, I DONT WANT TO EAT THIS! LOOK AT IT! *pointed at some brown spots on it*
UH'OH!
He didn't want to eat it just because it was an OVERRIPE BANANA?! Lalalalaa~ another shocking moment that I got from him! And fortunately, I got used to it hehe *hard sigh* . And he didn't stop there! He then gave the overripe banana to me while saying : I know you want this! Just eat it, I don't mind! *and again, he was smiling.. dammit* I stared at him deeply and felt my hand grabbed the banana . See? I couldn't refuse it (again)! OMG what's wrong with meeee???!! >.<
So, I ate the overripe banana, even though my stomach had already full *seriously I could feel I wanted to throw up*, with a SMILE ON MY FACE! I knew it wasn't his fault . It was MY FAULT because I can never stand over his sweet smile and funny act :")
HEY! I kinda miss him now.. *NO KIDDING*
A hint for my next post is -->
