This Old Woman I met~

She is old but strong, she is sweet but tough, she is blur but precise... she is The Italian Mama, who runs the factory opposite my shop...


From the first day we met, we get along very well.. we share lots of laughter and problems, sorrow and jokes and even share the complains of man and their weird attitude from Mars...


As days goes by, we even share morning coffee together.. if i dont come for her, she will shout from the opposite factory and call upon my name " MELI... HOT WATER READY!" ... Sometimes when both of us are busy.. she will give a loud and sweet "CIAO" to us... she is just the mama that everyone loves..

As i am going through hell of a depressing moment now, she never even let me down... she just comfort me with her broken English " FUNCULO THE MAN!" She is ROCK, i tell you..


Today, she almost made me cry... she impressed me with her humble attitude and most of all.. heart touching friendship i hade with her shows very clearly... I was driving an old junk car... since its wednesday and we are going to have our weekly shopping routine.. i came pick her up at her house.. and i was rushing to change a better car so she can have more comfortable seat.. She saw and she stopped me from far... she refuse me to change and she kept saying :"i am not hadicapped you know, whatever car you drive, i will still sit in your car till the one i cant fit in.. " I laughed over it and she really try very hard to sit in this super low old junk car that i m having... she is just a touch down wonder woman... she is the pillar for all the good recipes in ONe of the famous Italian restaurant in KK, she is a wonderful leader and yet.. she is just being herself all the time... For a woman whom at this age to work her ass off.... who never complain a word.. I salute her.... She is MAMA...

Tu Grande Mama!
