He slides closer to her with intent on kissing her. Kisses. Slow kiss. She replies in kind by giving and continuing their smooching session. “I lo--” she interrupted, “Don’t.” “Boundaries huh?”, he said.

The Long Visit: Part One

PART ONE Years after I long visited this place I call my hometown, a small town in the district of Tuaran where time almost stood still but thanks to the youths of this generation, technology managed to slips its reins in society. Why now? I rarely even talked about it during my stay in the great city of Kuala Lumpur. Is it because I know nothing about it?

Partially, I wanted to meet my old friends and rekindle long lost love interest but deep down it was just that I wanted a peace of mind. I packed whatever I could carry in a single bag and off I went to the airport accompanied by my younger brother. I was hoping for something to happen. Something interesting.
