Status: Feeling nervous.
Or maybe you know, I’m not sure. But I’m sure I haven’t talked about it. Because I’m too embarrassed.
But here goes.
It happened a few years ago.
I was at the post office, queuing up, along with twenty other people. They all had items in hand, wanting to post stuff. I also had a purpose being there. But my goal that day was very different from everyone else’s. I was holding something quite precious. Small, but precious.
The line moved up slowly, and finally I was next in line.
Nerves started to come.
I looked around, embarrassed that other people were going to hear my conversation at the counter. The post office was annoyingly quiet that day.
“Boleh saya bantu?” the post office person on duty asked in Malay when it was my turn.
