Raye 1

Her nicknamed is Raye . A very dear friend of mine. I knew her seven years ago.

She fall in love with this boy, of a different race and religion, when they were together doing Form Sixth in school. After Form Sixth she furthered her studies in a teachers’ training college so that she could work as a teacher.

He left school and went on to do an engineering course in USA. They keep contacting each other through letters. There was no mobile phone then.

Once back home, he got into the engineering profession.

But after seven years he quit to open up his own engineering firm. He did well in the business.

She resigned as a teacher and opened up her own company, dealing in services and supplies to the government department.

They wanted to get married but,

“No, I can’t accept your choice. He is from a different race and religion. Why don’t you find someone from your own race and religion?” Her mother told her off.

“But, we were in love since school days!”

“I won’t accept it. And that’s final!” Her father told her.

On his side,

“Mummy, I want to marry Raye. I love her very much.”

“No, I can’t accept you choice. She is from a different race and religion. Why don’t you find someone from your own race and religion.” His mother also told him off.

“But, we were in love since school days.”

“I won’t accept it. And that’s final!” His father told him.

They were still together. They just cannot break off their relationship.

CIKGUTANYA : Hmmm Romeo and Juliet kind of love.
