Back home in Kelantan Diary: Resident inn: The Abandoned Inn?

Assalamualaikum...

Last week I went back to my old 'home', Kelantan to attend my friend's wedding. It is the main reason why I decided to come back home on this 1 week break. so, I was thinking maybe I can take a bus from KL to Kelantan on the next day I arrived from Sarawak. Coincidentally, my mother said that my family are all going to Kelantan as well because of my cousin's wedding reception. So I said, 'OK, save my money!' hehe =)

We convoyed with 2 cars, 1 drove by my father and the other 1 drove by my eldest brother. On the way to Kelantan, we stop by at the inn that I have stayed when I was a little girl. Back then, that inn was a luxurious inn to me as the building and interior design is in British style and I remember taking a picture under the 'mushroom' just outside the building in my pajamas with my siblings that night. we planned to have our lunch there, but when we arrived, the so called Resident Inn seems to be abandoned. The red building looking so dull and there is a ceiling's leaking of water and there are green fungus grows at the wall at the entrance! really looked like an abandoned inn! one question popped up in my mind, "is this inn still operating?" The building was built in 1922 indeed but it shouldn't be this way...then, I followed my mother inside to check if the cafe is open..then, we met with a Malay lady (the keeper maybe, or maybe just a worker there) who watching tv at the lobby..but it looks more like an ordinary living room in an ordinary house to me..according to her, the cafe is close due to the holidays (I glance at the cafe...it was empty with no decorations and couple of dirty plates are on the table..)..since we are here, my mother ask permission to use the toilet, then my mother went and use gent's restroom as the ladies's restroom was locked (it was non-functional )..when my mother is inside the restroom, I looked around at the counter and at the second floor (the stair just behind the counter) and it seems that the inn is still operating...the decorations at the counter and at the stair seems like there is no much changes from the last time I came here except that the cabinets at the corner of the building are all emptied..then I glance at the toilet after my mother came out, okey, it was nice..the tiles are in blue and there are some decorations at the mirror and the wall. My brother and I decided to buy an ice cream at the ice cream box in front of the counter but it was locked..the keeper said her friend keep the key but she already going back home...huhuhu...not our sustenance...so we decided to have our lunch at other place...before we leave the place, I once again look at the dull building and at the room's window and I thought "this place is good as a setting for the ghost story"...uhuhu...its creepy..

that's all for now..sorry for the bad grammar...ta-daa~
