We had the opportunity to meet and play with Nia Nia again as Ayah Cik Farid and Cik Ma had a 24 hour or so overlap with our stay at Pasir Mas. The day before we had to depart, they arrived.

The next morning, we geared up for the return to Perlis. Nia played with her baby powder. She applied powder onto her cheeks and nose herself.

Irfan gladly became the shield against the morning sun for Nia as she explored the yard. Soon after, we said our goodbyes and headed over the mountains toward the Northwest.

It was nearly journey’s end when Ain drove past Irfan’s school. (Ain took over the wheel at a masjid south of Jeniang.)
