Love really does find a way even in the workplace!
That was the situation captured in a viral TikTok video (@zaimwhylikethis) where a man named Zaim decided to surprise his colleagues by handing out his wedding invitation cards. But what truly caught everyone off guard wasn't the wedding itself; it was the identity of his bride-to-be!
Zaim, who is set to marry a woman from his own workplace, recorded the priceless moment his coworkers saw the name of his partner on the invitation card. Their shocked reactions were nothing short of hilarious. Some screamed, others stared in disbelief, and a few even thought it was a prank.
"Is this for real? No way. This must be a joke. Her name is Elina too, but not our Elina," one colleague exclaimed in disbelief.
"When did this happen? We've been here all along," another added, still trying to process the surprise.
Some even questioned if Zaim was pulling a "prank wedding" on them, given how unbelievable it seemed. After all, the couple had managed to keep their relationship completely under wraps despite seeing each other daily at work!
However, not everyone was caught off guard. When Zaim handed the invitation to two of his female coworkers in the pantry, they admitted they had long suspected that the two were secretly dating, a sign of sharp instincts from the so-called "pantry meeting committee."
What made the video even more heartwarming was how everyone, regardless of race, Malay, Chinese, or Indian, reacted with pure joy and surprise. The moment showed just how tight-knit and genuine workplace friendships can be.
As viewers flooded the comments section, many couldn't stop laughing at the coworkers' reactions, calling it one of the sweetest and funniest workplace surprises they'd seen.
One thing is for sure: Zaim's wedding invite turned an ordinary workday into a memory his colleagues (and now the internet) won't forget anytime soon!
