And we didn't know...



A colleague called in sick yesterday, which was weird because he was all fine and dandy the previous day.

No one suspected anything and we continued on with our demanding daily task.

At around lunch time (7 p.m. local time), he called our AM to inform the AM that he won't be able to come for the next few days. Upon hearing that, the AM asked him what was wrong with him. Was he sick? What kind of illness did he contracted?

At first he was beating around the bush and did not want to explain. However, after some coaxing from the AM, he decided to come clean. Apparently, his wife was in labour.

WIFE!!!

All of us didn't even know that he was married (he is only 24 and is very quiet and timid). And now he was informing us that he was about to become a dad. WOW! The news came as a shock to the whole team.

It was not so bad for me, as I have only known him for the last 3 months. However, the rest of them had worked alongside him for the past one year! The best part was, all this while, they had been trying to match him up with every new girl that joined the team.

Well at least the news brought some excitement to our daily mundane life in the dead town of Cyberjaya.


Congrats on the birth of your new baby girl, dude!
