ShibShib

I was cleaning out the old apartment's bathroom cabinet and came upon an old pair of flip flops.  Laughed and had to share with Saif. Baba would come over and insist on knowing why I didn't have a pair of sandals/flip flops for the bathroom. That was one place he HAD to wear flip flops.  During one of his visits, he brought me a special pair of old flip flops lying around the house.  As soon as he left that day, I stored them in that bathroom cabinet.  On his next visit, he opened the bathroom door and exclaimed, "Feen il shibshib?"
Lol, this was a while later, so I had forgotten about them, and he had expected to see them lying there, as they had been a while ago.  I couldn't remember where I had stored them, so he went back to the living room and borrowed Saif's crocs.  Allah yirhamak Baba.  Love you and miss having you walk around my house.

<3, <3, <3. His brown shibshib, bent and flattened out of shape, is still in the bathroom. No one uses it and yet no one can bring themselves to throw them out.
