Mr. Mohd. Faris Shahrin left SMK Taman Universiti 13 years ago [or could be more] and since then, we had only met twice if I am not mistaken. The last time when I was with Johor Bahru Chess Team in Batu Pahat many years ago and we went out for dinner. Suddenly, this morning, he appeared at my doorstep, literally.
He was actually on his staycation trip with his family at KSL Hotel and was on his quest to find breakfast. He made a detour and stopped by, which was very sweet of him so I took him to Kampung Melayu Market Food Court where he could easily find variety of food to pack and take away. And I accompanied him for breakfast and gossiped over his "Lontong Kering" and coffee.
It was a spontaneous decision to meet and greet so we could not stay that long to chat. His wife was calling asking his whereabout as the kids could not wait to get into the pool. Hopefully there will be longer time in the future to sit and catch up lost time.
