New Normal


In the late 2018, I asked one of my best friends to make a promise that we would meet each other at least once a month in 2019. The reason I wanted to do so was because I had this thought that one day each of us would get married to our partners, which I assumed would make it diffifcult for us to meet. Besides, because of work, I expected there would be a chance of moving to another city; so since both of us resided in Jabodetabek area, it was easier for us to arrange a meet up. It did not have to be at cute cafes or fancy restaurants; it could be us visiting each other at home or going to our friends’ weddings together. The point was we had to physically meet to catch up with each other’s life. Fortunately, it went smooth last year and we could live up to our promise. We still continued to meet each other in January and February of 2020, but it did not happen in March, and probably in the upcoming months as well.
