“My mum passed away 15 years ago and so dad and my unmarried sister stay together.

“But when she (sister) goes to work, she only comes home in the evening and dad will not have friends to have lunch with and he misses that.

“So he rides his motorbike all the way to my workplace, which is also in Bukit Mertajam.”

Norwahida added that since early this month, her father has been coming to her office almost everyday to spend time with her.

Prior to this, he would visit her twice or thrice a week and spend time over lunch.

The accounts executive is also not embarrassed to have lunch with her father and having her friends tag along too.

“Dad looks forward to our lunch and has no problems hanging out with my friends too.

“Most weekends, my family and I spend time with dad and my husband does not mind me spending too much time with him.

“Dad means so much to me and I want to spend every moment that I can with him,” she said.

Many commented on the video saying how touched they were at the bond between father and daughter while others commented that they missed their late father after watching the video.
