Malacca Day 1

After visited granny, we drove to Malacca around 7pm and reached there around 9pm. As soon as we reached there, we showered and got ready.
1) We were stink.
2) We were starving.
Oh yeah, we ate buns and peanuts that daddy bought at the hospital before we drove out. Luckily…!
Around 10pm, we drove out. I texted Fai and Jie about good Asam Pedas in Malacca. Also, asked about it in FB. Some said around Mahkota Parade and some said Pasar Borong.
When we were at the lobby, we asked the receptionist about it again and he suggested Pasar Borong too. But the direction he gave us was very confusing and at last we decided to eat anywhere as soon as we saw a stall or restaurant that sell foods!
Not far from the apartment we stayed, we found few stalls that sell variety of foods. Yay!
These were what we ordered.

Granny

We booked apartment in Malacca since last year. But something bad happened.
Early May, I got a bad news when I was at work. Granny. She collapsed in her house while making beverage to drink with some breads. No one was at home (in Muar) and luckily my aunt (she has one leg only) asked some kids who always be in her internet cafe to look for granny. Usual routine, ask her what she wants for lunch. Then, the kids ran back to aunt and told her this bad news.
When I knew about this, I couldn’t just go like that. My leave was limited and I need to plan it carefully. Furthermore, boss won’t allow me to take leave immediately. We must apply 3 days before, and needed to be approved by the boss.
I told mom, that we should just stick to the plan to Malacca since we have booked, and visited granny at the same time. As we planned, we drove from home 2.30am on Friday and reached there around 10am. As soon as we reached, aunt ordered breakfast and we just went to the hospital straight from her internet cafe. Yeah, no shower!
When reached there, and saw granny -- I really couldn’t help but cry. I still remember the last time I met her, she cried and said “Please come and visit me soon, I’m afraid there is not much time left…”. I guess she knew what is going to happen.
