Call to make my day

Ms K " Hey Justin, have you called Mdm M already?"
Me " Havent leh mdm, I scared she went off le."
Ms K " Call lah, she'll be very happy."
Me " Hmm, ok lor. I call her now."

** Actually, I had 2nd thoughts of calling her. Mdm M was my direct supervisor during my time in the airforce. She was a good mdm, offering sound advice, chit chatting. However, on my last day of work, I left the office without even saying a goodbye to her, not even knocking on her door to tell her I was leaving. Felt bad till today. All because of some stupid ippt stuff that I got fed up with some people. Spend 2 yrs of working relationship with her without even bidding a farewell. Well well how petty I was.**

Finally I decided to call.

*phone rang twice before she picked up and I heard the familiar voice of her's. Very professional in answering the call with a customary greeting. However the voice sounded a tad weaker and softer than the past*

Me " Hey, Mdm!! Is justin ahh. Long time no see!"

From then on, chatted on the phone for about 25 minutes, a tad after office hours. Seems like only yesterday that I have orded and collected my pink IC. Memories were still fresh.

*Ending of conversation*

Mdm M " Justin thank you for calling."
Me " Mdm, shi ying gai de." :)

Hai, felt a sense of relief, a tinge of happiness upon putting down the phone. Really felt bad till today, haha, but guess mdm din take it to heart. I take relationships seriously, whether working etc etc. And I always try to be tactful and responsible.

Well, felt really great that I managed to talk to her after almost 2 years now.

This post is dedicated to mdm m who sheltered me from arrows, blanjah me breakfast sometimes and the care and concern she had shown to me.

Hope is not too late. :)
