OMFG! This must be the greatest news on Earth for both me & mom! My first sister finally got the chance to meet my dad's new wife! She immediately called up my mom to tell the whole story! Gosh, just how do I explain this? Hmmm... Ok let me try put it in a dialogue...
This is how it all briefly goes...
My Sis: Hi Cik Mus! You know what? Dad came over to my house last night to claim the pictures that we took from the previous siblings gathering.
My Mom: What?! You gave him the pictures? Oh no.
My Sis: I know but I've got no choice. After all, I promised him. Haiz. Anyways, I met his new wife!
My Mom: Huh? He brought her along? How it all goes?
My Sis: It's funny. He parked his car in front of my gate. I know it's his car lah. Then when I step out with my three girls, I saw a lady in the car but he was nowhere in sight. Turn out, he was at the temple down the road. I found it weird but still waved at him. He saw me and he walked back to my gate. I asked him why is he waiting there when my house is here? He said he can't recall. As if I believe! I know he was trying to hide something.
My Mom: Ah then?
My Sis: After passing him the pictures, I asked him who is in the car? He was paisey lah so he opened the door and introduced me to his new wife, whom he addressed as 'Makcik Kasmah'. I just have to shook hand with her as a form of respect. I was very cautious. U know what? She is hideous!!! By the way, they were wearing the same security uniform. I teased them by saying, twins is it? Haha.
My Mom: Haha! Eh, what you mean? Isn't she fair and tall, with a nice built?
My Sis: No way!!! She's nothing like in the picture we all saw! She's very dark and looks terribly ugly. I think you are 10 times better than her. Even my own mom isn't that bad. Anyways, she looks quite 'manly'. In no way was she beautiful. Really hideous!
My Mom: Wow! Yeah, I agree your mom looks better. Suits her age. You must be kidding that I look 10 times better!
My Sis: I swear! Even my girls claim that Dad must be blind to have chosen that lady and leave you. They claim that both you and my mom are wayyyy better than 'Makcik Kasmah'. I can't believe even they think this way...
My Mom: Woah, really shocking. I thought she must be that gorgeous for him to run over to her and be very much blinded to everything else.
My Sis: Precisely! I still can't forget her face... It looks sorta freaky too!
My Mom: Haha. Consider yourself "lucky" that you got to meet her. I ought to meet her myself but I hope it will never happen. This is very surprising indeed. . .
Well, the whole conversation actually goes on and on but me and mom were just too delighted to hear this part. It clearly shows that my dad must have been blinded by "something". He sticks around with that hideous lady for more than 2 years now! Well, perhaps to our eyes 'Makcik Kasmah' looks pretty hideous but to him, she must be the most gorgeous lady ever lived in this world. Oh my god. God knows the best! :)
