Congratulations Pak Ahmad WIjaya

Last week seemed the starting busy days for all of us. And it happened to me too. After a sudden assignment to be speaker for IFSB Seminar in Bandar Sri Begawan, I was required to directly attend the product Working Group meeting in Karawachi, in which representatives from DPbS, DSN and IAI will be there. After spending 3 nights in BSB and 2 more in Krawachi, my head got fainted and the flu said hello to me.  And on Saturday I slept over almost all the day and woke up with a reminder from my mobile phone about Pak Ahmad Wijaya's daughter wedding day just one hour ahead!! 

My fainted head soon got over as I approached the Bidakara ballroom in which Pak Ahmad Wijaya had his daughter stood next to her bridegroom. A very familiar song welcome me and quickly I recognize its rhythm and lyrics. It was a song by Bill Wither, but I know it better by its sax blower, Grover Washington, Jr: :
I see the crystal raindrops fall, and the beauty of it all
Is when the sun comes shining through, 

To make those rainbows in my mind when I think of you sometime, and I want to spend some time with you

Just the two of us

We can make it if we try

.......

I feel as if the song was directed to me as I came to this function just with my wife, without my kids. We were photographed with our beloved as a wedding gift, the event that I even forget to do it many times. (Hiks) 

Surely I flattered myself since almost everyone with his/her own spouse tonight. And what mesmerized me tonight is that Pak Ahmad Wijaya placed many pagar ayu and pager bagus from his beautiful angels and their husbands...whew!! (What a nice couple of course). And it seemed that not only Wijayas' daughter who was celebrated tonight. I am right when the song is not only for me,

Thank you and cnngratulations Pak Ahmad, I want to go on enjoying the song

Just the two of us
Building castles in the sky
Just the two of us
You and I
......
