"Dua tahun", he said in a heavy kelantanese accent,
"Orang Indonesia ke Malaysia?"
To which I answered, "Malaysia..."
I figured he was asking about my boyfriend and saying we'd be married in two years.
His message was vague, it wasn't very clear what he meant.
"Dua tahun," he repeated and nodded knowingly.
I think about this incident a lot. He passed away a few months after so I never had the chance to ask him what he was trying to say. Well, it's a year and a half later and a lot of things have happened. Not long after he told me this, I broke up with my boyfriend of four years and I've been more of a mess than I have ever been before.
