Syahidah is the only Muslim in our office and we thought that it would be nice to cook dinner in the office and break fast together. She agreed to cook one dish, and the rest of us will cook a pot luck dinner. We invited a few friends and they all turned out - Freddie and Louis, Vivian, and Claudia(!), Sia and Ivy. In the middle of evening, I listened in from the other end of the table and could hear people talking all at once, laughing, sounds of old friends catching up. I am grateful that the people who have passed through our office, and are now working with other people still find the time for us.
Earlier that morning, I mentioned that one of our friends is behaving a little 'subdued' and wondered if his boss can do something about it, but he himself is still recovering. Still subdued himself in some sense. He would have enjoyed himself with the crowd that turned out.
