Hazia’s Reflections

I bumped into this sweet, sensitive 18 year old kid online - he pretended to be 39:)

His blog and the conversations with him were surprisingly very refreshing. The age of innocence…I’ve forgotten how powerful that was.

In the midst of simplifying matters to make him understand, I realised that things are actually not that complicated after all. Knowing him was like taking a journey back in time, and a happy one too. In fact, he had inspired me to start this blog.

Naturally, he started asking me for advice about the opposite sex and stuff. I was kind of flattered. Never felt wiser:p

Despite being a Science student, he was quite a poet…his words were light and yet touching, very inspiring…I wished he would never grow up…Though sometimes he surprised me with his maturity:)

And coincidentally, he shared the same name as my ‘adik angkat’ back in secondary school.

Sadly, his father was suffering from a muscle-eating genetic disease which he would eventually get too. I was amazed by the cool way he said he was prepared for it.

Zaki, hope you’ll be just as sweet when you’re 28:D
