Last Monday I received a call from a friend WYY. She said she felt that she is a failure because after moving to Kota Kinabalu from Tawau for 22 years, she cannot call any friend in the time of crisis. Recently her bachelor brother fell down and he has been in and out of hospital four or five times. Each time she has to accompany him while her husband has been busy chauffering the two children everywhere.
She said one of those times she met a ‘friend’ in the hospital and told her ‘friend’ the situation she is in. Her ‘friend’ did not have time for her and she ended feeling being depressed.
Another time she saw a friend from cell group in a coffee shop. She waved at the person but the person totally ignored her. She became so miserable after that.
I asked her why she did not call me or another one of our mutual friend AK. She did not have time to answer me because someone came to her office to see her and she did not call me back after that.
Actually AK and I wanted to have dinner with her on the eve of Hari Raya. But she was having company dinner that night and therefore we had to postpone the dinner to some other time.
