There was a time when I had to count my pennies and cents, when I was jobless and the nights seem eternal, I had to say Istighfar and Bismillah till I fell asleep...all due to the doings of two reckless and irresponsible greedy ladies who were willing to feed their children with "duit haram" that they took from their office over a period of time..leaving their poor boss to skim on his salary that came once in every two or three months....This time, the blow is worse! More than half million RM left the clients' account, all through the doings of a young sweet demure girl who came to work only for two weeks...I had not met her, but she forged the boss's signature, uplifted FD's, forged cheques, but thank God, initially the number was more than a million RM! The boss came home last Monday looking like he had not eaten for a year....I was shaken, too. My husband had fallen prey to a professional thief!
Hesitant as I may, I contacted and sought the help friends of my law school, one a very senior police officer and the other a senior member of the Bar, all just to speed up the investigation process and to ensure that the culprit is not spared from justice, and keep repeating the heinous act! To soothe myself I spoke to very close friends about this (you know who you are)...and my mind wondered on how to recover the monies (even if I sell all my belonging I won't collect that figure!)....definitely I can't quit this job, it was this job that came rolling to me during the earlier crisis (my ex-boss called me to come in!God is great and has His mysterious ways of arranging things!) and thank God for the new skill...baking!
We had bought tickets, rented cars and paid for accommodations for our holiday in Sabah the next day, which I wanted to shelf...but my dear Chut said, just go and let the things work their way....and I am glad we went for the holiday! Investigations are underway, she is now in the police's list "To Arrest", and I can only hope and pray and do loads of Sembahyang Hajat that everything will be fine like He wants it to be......there were wisdom and lessons learnt during the earlier crisis and believe me the rezeki was abundance after that "tiny" glitch....I will not allow this to dampen my spirit, I'm forging forward but still wondering the wisdom behind all this...but definitely I feel closer to Him than ever before....you won't taste the sweetness of life if you hadn't feel the bitterness.....
So, off we flew to to Negeri Di bawah Bayu on Tuesday, I declined all orders last week and let my oven to cool and rest and the picture above is a teaser of the beautiful findings in Sabah! God bless you people, have a brilliant week!
