I have known Kumaran since I was in Mahkota College back in 1994. He is my best friend. Some have said that we were couples, which both of us have denied. Kums or Kumi was brought up mainly in foreign countries since his dad works for the Foreign Affairs. Being in Brazil most of his life, he thinks he is Ronaldo when comes to football.
He was studying in ISKL when his father retired. Hanging around with foreigners and "mat-salleh" speaking Malaysians wasn't an advantage when he came down to Mahkota College to study ADP, where most of us speaks "Manglish". He at one time, confidently ordered a, "Ayer Mani Es Satu!", much of our amuse.
He doesn't like Indian girls though, most of his choice of women are either malay , chinese or others. I remembered a time when there was these two indian girls chasing him. I have never seen him so scared.
He likes to gamble, rather a miser with us but not with his girlfriend, that bastard bought her a Gucci watch that cost almost RM1k. The funny thing was, he doesn't even have a watch, just like me. Funny eh!? What love would do to a man. Other then the usual sins, he is a social drinker, there was numerous occasion when he got pissed, and I missed it everytime. Damn!
Five years has since passed, he has a job, alas a life! and also a girl friend, phew! (but girls, don't stop chasing him, he is only 24, still young). He is working for a well established head hunting firm in Kuala Lumpur. Very near to where I am working.
