'Of course it's in Dubai', I walked to the counter to grabbed a plate and scoop the crispy omelette. I loved the crisp of it. Tender in the inside.
'Guess again', he chuckled.
I took out a fork and pour orange juice on a glass. An italian well made glass.
'Well scientifically, it has got to be that tall building who was said can reach the sky',
'Your theory of tall buildings are scientifically acceptable, only you haven't guessed the right building yet',What is it then? I can't pretend to be stupid.
'How about the Malaysian twin tower building',
'Just because it's twins does not mean that it's relevant to be the highest',
'We can try',
'I'll give you a clue. The building can reach the stars and the moon',
'That's impossible''It does sound impossible but logically enough to believe it',

Families and cousins have gathered after a long separation in only hopes of achieving a well planned wedding for their dearest little one.Is this what it feels like? The mixed feelings of today becoming a family with strong bonds and the next day became another?
