kuih lopes

today is the first day of puasa and i'm back at home. while helping my stepmum prepare for buka i was thinking, this is so weird. i guess because, we're eating very different kind food than what i associate with buke.

then my dad comes back and i see he's bought kuih lopes.

and tiba2 rasa sungguh sebak.

yes, my dad bought kuih lopes that nobody in my family likes except for my late mother.

after dinner i don't look at my dad and take two. he doesn't comment that i don't like sweet things.

my brother looks at me eating and takes one too.

we look at each other and my dad and it's like this unspoken smile - mama loved kuih lopes. everyday during buke she would buy some even though she was the only one who ate it.

sometimes we eat for the people we love. and for the people we miss.
