Before the event, we held few meetings for the preparation of this event and finally we departed on the 18 May 2025. Once we arrived at our inn, we had a short and brief meeting about the next day event and once we are done, we are good to go. Prepare my clothes and everything and goes to sleep.
19th May 2025
We start our day based on the schedule arrange and I was assigned to assist the wife of the head of the airforce of Indonesia National Army (TNI-AU). I am so proud but nervous, again because it's my first time to assist such an important person.
For those who does not know what does LIMA stands for it is Langkawi International Maritime and Aerospace exhibition. This is a two years once event that was held in the island of Langkawi, Kedah. Such a special event for this island and usually attract people from all over the world. Usually, the accommodation during this season is DAMN EXPENSIVE.
Okay, back with the topic.
The first day assisting the wife of the Chief Airforce was amazing. Nervous as hell but everything went well.

I had 0 hopes that I will be able to watch the airshow but somehow we made it and watch the show. I enjoy the short moment that we had and manage to catch a glimpse of the show.
21st May 2025
Its the last day of the VIP guest I'm handling and they will go back to Indonesia. I didn't have time to look around but rather I took pictures of them at the tarmac. As long as they are happy, I'm happy. To be honest I don't have the time to look around at that time. Once the VIP guest went back, I quickly rush to the Indonesian Defence booth to meet up with my colleague and then later on preparing for the next event at night. The event related to our department and it was full house! Happy with the participants that join in.

It's the day that we finally could go to the tarmac again and watch the performance of The Jupiter Aerobatic team and it was amazing. That is the time I can finally open up my eyes to see which one that I want to take picture with. Finally found one <3
Arghhh I can't! Talking about how I encounter him for the first time already made me feel butterflies. It was like a fate and I'm saying it because I saw him for the first time when I was going out from the Jupiter booth to take a break from the hectic simple arrangement. I just feel suffocated and going out from the booth is the best decision I ever made.
That's when I saw him, my Captain Fajar.
ARRRRHHHH!
It's weird but when I was standing with the Air Force boss, there was a voice that asked me to look on my left and when I look, there he is, standing there, looking at the preparation of the aircraft before the departure. I just couldn't take my eyes off him after that time onwards. I mentioned this to the boss and saying I would like to have a picture taken with him and he nodded with agreement and will help me to ask on behalf of me. Fast forward, suddenly things become busy and I got distracted by the other air show and forget about him for a while. But then while we were walking out to the Jupiter aircraft to take picture of our bosses, there was my Immigration boss walking with him and asking me to help him take picture with the Captain. It's the opportunity I was looking for, good timing!
After I took their picture, I quickly ask permission for a photo with him, nervously and shakingly getting his consent and standing next to him. Once we are done with the photo including me taking picture for my friend, all of us need to walk over to see other aircraft but the only one I wanna see at the moment was him, my Capt <3.
And just like that he reached out his hand to me introducing his name and I nervously and unconsciously reaching out my hand to him. AHHHHHHHH! When I think about that moment, how dare did I do that??!!! Daymmmnn girl. You're so brave. But then we talked and it was a memorable one and I was just flying all over the place just like how the pilot of Jupiter did their aerobatic moves <3
And that moment of us was captured in camera and what can I say, I LOVE IT.
I still remember all of the moment.
Unconsciously I was smiling till my ears and just like that the Air Force boss noticed that I was smiling and joke around me saying about me smiling from ears to ears and while he was teasing me about him, he mentioned loudly that I must be happy that I got him finally. And he was there on his left in front of him when his name was being mentioned. He turn back and look at me. All I could do is just to cover my face from embarrassment and quickly went inside the booth, in which he went in as well. After that I think everything was just blurry for me :') I'm so in love.
Before we depart, I handed out request to my air force boss that I would like to get his signature on my hat. Long story short, they manage to get for me and together with a video of him signing the cap for me. OMG!!!!! I can't say anything, I'm just a girl who's in love! Hahahaha. I'm confuse with my feeling why I became like that at that time, even till now. It was like I met the celebrity that I adored so much. It's that kind of feeling. Lovey dovey till cloud 9.

It's the time that we have to sent everyone back so we busy up our day sending everyone back home and left 4 of us in Langkawi to drive back our offices car to Penang. 2 ladies and 2 guys. Me, being the girl who's being starstruck by the Capt still can't move on with all that has already happened before. But it was just like that till my boss mentioned in our work group with a screenshot that the Capt asked for my number. PENGSAN. I feel happy but at the same time embarrassed. With all the circumstances and agreement and everything, I consented for my number to be given to the Capt. He chatted with me, again introducing himself and also sharing the picture that he had of him and with me. ARRHHHHH! I kept screaming through my eyes and all my eyes did was shooting love out of it.
24th May 2025
It's the day that we departed back out from Langkawi to Kuala Kedah and we have to wait for our car to reach Kuala Kedah on the 25th May before we can depart back to Penang. We stayed a night in Alor Setar and the 4 of us that was left behind spend time together chatting about all those things that happened in Langkawi. We had fun that night chatted away all the problems we are facing.
25th May 2025
Woke up same time for Subuh prayer and after that me and my friends was chatting away when Capt texted me. Again....I'm screaming my lungs out quietly. How can I not! OMG! He asked whether I have reached Penang or not and after I explain to him, he told me that he's departing back to Indonesia and thanked us for visiting their booth and likewise I thanked him for the opportunity and mentioned how proud are we with them and wishes them all the good wishes. And then ....
he called me ...
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!
I was that damn nervous answering his call and all I can do was blushing all the way during our conversation. Basically I did confess to him that I was the one that asked for the air force boss for his signature on my cap and I'm sorry if it causes discomfort but I was really happy with it including the consented recorded video of him signing my cap. Haihhhhhhhhh <3 LOVE LOVE LOVE
It was like a video call between idol and fan and I was literally blushing confessing bit by bit. With my messy hair and pajamas! I couldn't tell all the details because I want to keep the rest in my memory of how I saw him, just for myself. It was the best gift I ever received for LIMA 25.
Of course, that's it. That was our last conversation and later on I saw he posted something in his Whatsapp stories and just replied to it and that's all. Nothing else and of course I don't dare to disturb him again for some obvious reason.
And from that time onwards, I just fan girling him till now. Until now. While I'm writing this.
Anyway, I really hope that he will have a good career ahead of him and he will become a successful person and hopefully one day we will be able to meet again or bump into each other. AAAAAAAAA!!!!! I REALLY WISH FOR IT! I'M NOT JOKING ABOUT IT. I REALLY MEAN IT.
Haishhhhh....
I am still so in love with him till now, fan girling him. All over the place like how I fan girling Mayor Teddy and Afgan.
I hope that the memory that I had with him will stay and I will remember him all the time.
Till we meet again, Captain Fajar <3💘
