Yesterday, HL called me and we sat chatting about what happened to me recently. She wasn't happy finding out the story having known that the culprit who started the whole bad mouthing is actually an old friend. I don't know who she is (yes, it's a SHE) but I'm sure one day Z and I will find out. We're not gonna start a war or anything childish. We just wanna know who so we could watch our backs when we're with her. After all, we're colleagues. It's not a healthy professional environment making a big fuss out of something that we KNOW untrue.
So, HL confessed yesterday. She did hear stuff about me. Bad stuff. I shared in the previous entry that she told those concerned off, telling them to stop bitching about me. When I thanked her, she said that she wasn't doing it for me but doing it for justice sake. HL I know is a woman of charisma: she says what she sees. So, having her siding me, without me asking, is really a big honour on my part. I am forever thankful.
What touched me was when she told me she purposely went down to my new workplace to talk to my admin bosses, clearing things out about the bad mouthing gossips about me. It must sound very ugly that she chose to go see my bosses personally in their office, just to tell them NOT to listen to any of those comments. I was speechless when she told me this yesterday. The only time I bumped into her at work was some time in June-July this year. And guess what, that WAS the time she did it all. She even invited me to lunch, together with my bosses. I was like ... lost for words. I was touched :') Reminiscing that day, we, the four of us, had lunch and I was too gullible to notice that they WERE actually just discussing about me back in the office.
I can never thank her enough for clearing up my name. HL, my mentor, my friend, my saviour. Alhamdulillah ya Allah. You tested me, letting me taste pain and agony, but you sent her to save me too. These are all your blessings. Your blessings in disguise :')
So this morning, feeling better, I had my Facebook status updated. When I got home, I smiled reading the comments left by colleagues and friends, also HL. They made my day. I am truly touched :')

zul, sometimes we need to have that skill to get things done. if we just let them be, they'll take us for granted. i'm sure you hate that more than having your spitting cobra talent ;)
PS: After marking right up till 6.30pm, I had dinner with my sister as we skipped lunch yesterday to meet our marking quotas. Though we're living under the same roof, in fact, our rooms are just next door to each other, we seldom sit down and talk like we used to. So we did some catching up on updates and stuff. When it was my turn, I shared my recent tragedy. Her comment made me laugh. She said: Your life is so full of drama! She's right. And I never asked for it ...
