Ties that bind

My family came over this evening, their first visit since we moved in more than a month ago.

Frankly I was surprised they came to hang out. My family is not the sort which spends too much time at any other place other than their own home. Maybe because Tok's attention span is rather short, or maybe it's because Bapak just tak "kerasan" kat rumah orang. But today, they spent quite some time, leaving only after the Man U & Fulham match.

Nana as usual is so jakun, going in & out of the rooms. Wan is thrilled by the availability of cabletv. Mak made some avocado drink & I made myself busy by serving them drinks, etc. Tok & Bapak just lounged at the sofa, & enjoyed the mango icecream AH served them.

I was impressed by AH too, who made the guests feel very at home. Boleh tahan jugak AH ni. Cuma I was quite nervous lah tengok dia jalan sana, jalan sini. I was hoping really hard his legs wouldn't give him a relapse.

It was nice having them over. I guess it's because it's *our* place their visiting, Tok's own granchild, Mak & Bapak's own daughter, Wan & Nana's sister, so rules/boundaries are relaxed a bit & everyone was able to make some time to hang out together.
