the inn, the brothel, and the star-crossed bridge

the inn is situated next to the town's famous bridge.
the bridge of east wind.
certainly not the most fortunate name.

across the road from the inn is something that is even more famous than the bridge.
the scarlet fairy brothel.

this is certainly not the best place to open your inn.
especially if you are a young, innocent maiden.

but she is not just any young, innocent maiden.
she happens to be the owner of the brothel too.

she is very much respected in this town.
but the brothel is despised in equal measure.

of course there is a reason behind such a strange situation.
but that is not the only strange occurrence there.

he patrons the scarlet fairy every 28th day of the month.
he will spend two to four hours every time.

coming out half drunk, he would walk across to the inn.
and spend the night there. every time.

no one knows who he is. except her.
no one understands his action. not even her.

naturally there is a reason behind his action.
but the greater mystery is the star-crossed fate of these two.

journal: a little update

wow I am actually back to this blog. between Apr 27 2018 and now.. what has happened? I officially proposed to my girlfriend (wah.. trust me you gonna miss that word), got married, and.. became a dad. yeah.. all in a matter of less than 2 years. now when you consider the fact that in 2015 I would not have the slightest idea how things would turn out, it just goes to show how life changes in a blink. How is married life? Well.. I am one of those who has pretty pragmatic view when it comes to marriage. I have seen enough to know that relationship is messy. So.. I must say marriage has been way way better than my expectation hah.. For example.. I knew that my wife is a smart woman. I knew some of her shortcoming too.. (and there are some I didn't know till we got married, of course) BUT... here's the big bonus. I didn't know she can be that adorably funny in her own way. Not funny like a standup comedian funny but.. you know.. she makes me laugh. Trust me.

Hmm..

si mahasiswa NTU yg bunuh diri itu denger2 namanya david. sigh.. mgkn final year presssure was too much to him. jadi inget masa2 kerjain final year project, tinggal 3 bulan dan gua maseh blank. untung ngga masuk berita ky dia. life is a funny thing. well since there is a chance that this may not be a simple suicide, lets not assume so. maybe there's a truth behind this. duh.. jd inget kalo di conan trus dia bilank, "ini bukan bunuh diri.. ini adalah kasus pembunuhan!" jadi serasa mao jadi detektip -_-
