Thank you is not enough

I was studying quietly in my room

Suddenly I heard people calling me outside

(Rest assured, no more horror story)

So I tilted my head out

It was my landlady

Tong sui = bubur manis, dessert

'Getting slim' is just her way of getting you to eat by the way

I went down the dining hall to find 2 packets

1 contains the red bean soup, the other with 2 pieces of yam cakes

Both of them are still warm

'Those are for you, make sure you eat them!' my landlady shouted from upstairs.

I was very touched

And feeling very pai seh

Because she treated me another meal (supper)

This morning she bought me laksa (I took it for lunch)

And the week before mee goreng (dinner)

Maybe it doesn't sound much

And you might retort, 'It's only a simple meal. Not like you're eating abalone or shark fin'

But it's the heart that counts

I'm not good in words

I can't explain to you how thankful I am

Because I've been saying that too many times, you might think that it's getting stale

It was the sweetest red bean soup I've ever taken

I feel blessed, Aunty =)
