I just got back from Lewis's 21st bday at Sofias. And pretty much everyone I hung out with from school was there. And Rohan was there. I've blogged about Rohan before. Rohan is my high school mate and he's currently battling cancer.
But, today, he was just like any normal person. All of us hung out like old times. We fight about what to order (which Susan later took charged and pretty much ordered for us), we teased one another and had a cake fight with Alka and Azeem starting it by caking Lewis and those in the cake fight had a fiasco in the toilets where apparently there were more cake smearing and water spraying. I laughed so hard when Azeem tricked Rohan into the girl's toilets and smiled silently when Azeem and Alka were having fork fights over the olives in the Mediterranean salad. We don't look like mature 21 y-o adults but more like 5 y-o kids. And quoted by Susan:Behave kids!!! It's a family restaurant!!! It's good that we can still have childish moments and people to fool around with!
And seeing Rohan still battling cancer with a smile and strong-will makes me smile inside. Initially, I was scared to meet him because I didn't want to be challenge faith-wise and my beliefs as a Christian. It was hard enough seeing a close buddy going through cancer. But today, he didn't need a walking stick and his hair is growing back. He was happy, bubbly and there was a spring in his feet. All these while, I've been praying for him for strength and healing. And this reassured me that God is listening to my prayers and watching over my friends. I thank God for each one of them. What would I do without them?
