After The 3 Months

Actually, this was the day when I able to hang out with my brother after 3 months.., finally....

You still don't get it?... Allow me to explain.... :)

I actually came across to have found several pictures of me, when suddenly they reminded me of that one day when I had the chance to meeting my brother after a long time.


I didn't even know, when or how many times he snapped this while I was already outside of the shopping mall, just to found out that he was missing in action... All I knew, it was a hot day outside and I couldn't see straight to the front due to the glaring sunlight. I could only feel the intense heat at the same time that makes me feel all red!

Anyway, when he finally done with his random snapping, he sent them all to me...

I asked, "What are you doing?"..

He said, "It's candid!".. 

"😳😳"..

I think, the whole world would have familiar by now with the life that we're all got into for the past few months, and also with these very similar words that we tend to hearing everyday like pandemic, lockdown, quarantine, social distancing and all.., I believe, you already have better understanding about all these things.


So, back to the story of "after that 3 months" period, when the lockdown started to gradually lifted, I finally had the chance to went outside the house and met my brother for the very first time after the lockdown period. It simply means, in 3 months you're not allowed to go outside from the house, and in 3 months you're not allowed to meet other people as well, such as your brother, your sister, your father, your mother, your husband, your wife, your children, your grandparents, your friends and well yes.., everyone!

But, when things came into my work, it was different.... No matter it was a lockdown or no lockdown, I still went to work as usual because hospitals and medical centres were the ones that left running while others were not. Thus, no matter the situations might like, I still had job to do, while some others need to just stay at home. So, it's the opposite.. :)

However, that one particular day was far more better after that 3 months period had passed, at least, where I'm actually able to hang out with my brother.., at last!.. But yes, you definitely still need to used face mask, hand sanitizer, social distancing a lot more, especially whenever you're outside of the house.

I'm excited that we had late morning brunch in town, and then went to the shopping mall for the first time, after a long time... I felt like a deer coming into a village for the first time.., and everything felt odd and awkward!

The very first spot that we went to first was the hair salon. My brother had missed the cut he loves so much for quite long time now, so finally he had the chance to visit his hair salon today!

As for me, I'm happy enough to be able went outside of the house for a while, and away from my work for a day, just to seeing how was life outside really are looked like, after some times. Well yes, it was a lot more different now, unlike the ones that we used to have before. It was the beginning of the new normal life... But, after we spent the whole day together, I only ended up bought myself a pair of pink in white sneaker.... :)

Anyway, out of all pictures he took, I came to like this one, actually...


I remembered, my brother said, "I just don't know... But, you were just standing there between those giant athletes, and literally you looked so tiny!"...

Huh?...
