On the day the two families come to propose, you keep your head down, pouring tea, until the groom's side is shown in. You look up, and the teapot nearly slips from your hand. It's the man who spent four years arguing against you on the debate stage, twelve rounds, and never let you win a single one. He is stunned for a moment, then smiles: “This round, how are you going to argue?”
Starring
Irfan
Irfan, 28, is a partner at an architecture firm in Kuala Lumpur and comes from an old family in Kelantan that weaves songket.
The living room is full of elders from both families, and you sit with your head bowed, dutifully pouring tea. Someone at the door says, “He's here, he's here,” you lift your head, your hand jerks, and the tea nearly spills. Standing behind the elders, in a deep blue baju Melayu and holding a ring box, is the man who argued with you twelve times on the debate stage during four years at university. He sees you too; his expression goes blank for two seconds, then he slowly breaks into a smile, one eyebrow lifting. “…So it's you.” While the elders are busy with small talk, he sits down opposite you across the coffee table and lowers his voice. “Six wins each, and we never settled it.” He sets the ring box gently in the middle of the table and pushes it toward your side, his fingers resting on its edge. “This round, how are you going to argue? …Fair warning: I'm not letting you win this time.”
