My Bestie Dearie, Sri Hirdayu
I would like to take a moment to reminisce how beautiful our friendship has blossomed. It has been 14 awesome years since our paths crossed way back in NYJC. Our GEMA DIKIR ‘white stone’ age of batu putih (haha!) – to our dark age of case-of-the-ex life stories – to our marriages – and today, our club motherhood membership. Wonderful journey, I must say. And I thank Allah for blessing me with such a gorgeous, sexy, kind and a very very strong bestie like you in my life. You are very beautiful, dearie. Inside out. And I love you with all my heart.
Even though we rarely meet, deep inside we know we can always have each other’s backing when shit happens. (quote) Best friends listen to what you don’t say (unquote). This was exactly how I felt on that particular fateful Hari Raya year. With that lil bump of yours with baby Tiara inside and lil Ayumi running around the house with my Gaby, by just looking at your eyes, I could already sense something was not right. I even dreamt of you. It was then I decided to just pluck my courage to confront you. And the rest was history.
Alhamdullillah, love is indeed your true destiny with Kamal. And with everything that has happened, only Allah knows best, which why we call it F.A.T.E. InsyaAllah, if before this, a family vacation was not fulfilled, I really hope to make it happen with you and Kamal (and munchkins) this time. Ini Kalilah. Ubah. Mesti jadi. LOL. By the way dearie, this I have to tell you. Elias and I, we are so much more comfortable with Kamal for some reason. We really adore his down-to-earth nature. Power of the misai, I reckon. Haha!
So, let’s forget April (read: 10 April) coz June is THE month now worth remembering. Simply becoz we now share the same wedding anniversary month Yeah!!!
Last but not least, my wish for you dearie is this: may you find in your newfound happiness with Imam Kamal (and not forgetting your precious munchkins), the affection, the serenity, the peace, and most importantly, loads of blessings from The One Above, that you’ve been seeking all these while. And may you love each other, till Paradise, in the hereafter. In the name of The Lord, all these I pray for you, Sri Hirdayu Ahmad. Ameen.
With all my love, Dian Hamzah
Darling Sri
Over the past 8 years, we have seen how each other discover and develop our own voices, beliefs, courage and passion in our work and in our own personal lives. Right now, I truly am filled with pure joy to know that you have found a man who delights in you, and makes you feel special by filling your entire being with that fuzzy-wuzzy feeling. May your every day be blissful.
I love you, my sexy fellow rebel! Love, Sylvia.
Dearest Sri,
What started with a sweet, sincere smile has bloomed into a tight, heartwarming friendship. A friendship that has given me plenty of strength, love, life, laughter and…food!
My prayers are with you guys for your big day. May Allah continue to bless you with much love, life & goodness in this life and hereafter. For you, your loved ones & those closest to your heart (like me!)
CONGRATULATIONS !!
With much love, Ida Razak
Dearest Sri,
I should not say so much in case these wishes turns into a wet one! All that I want to say is that I am thankful for having an awesome, sexy, ‘minah’ buddy like you! Many thanks for all the listening ears, your thoughts & advice…all the time spend together is much, much appreciated! Love you and may this lovely knot of love between you & Kamal lasts till eternity…
Wishing you all the best, XoXo, Ain
Every other photograph I found of us together its either me with my eyes closed or you were looking elsewhere! So I dug, and dug and found the Korean costume photograph! This is probably one of the earliest times when I suddenly became “your friend” (no idea why!) and the three of us just kept doing stuff together since. You’re a one independent and resilient lady who never fails to amaze me with the courage you have to make changes in your life! And keep it that way! I hope Kamal will be the one who’s really for you and true to your heart and remember in a marriage…
