The dream... soured

His voice is always strong and inviting

and his mind is vibrating with million thoughts

and he is my Ayah!

Whenever I am weary, the best way to get rid of it is by calling Ayah only to hear the same line at the very beginning;

Apa kabar anak Ayah?? (pfftt.. teary eyes already)

lepastu.. everything washed away and i will be rejuvenating again! My family; we always love riddles. Be it sarcastic pun, we just layan because normally the kiddos will be the agent lawak for sarcastic riddles that they got from school. Oh my this kids i tell you, everyday they'll have some new things to challenge our adults mind. They even called you in the middle of ur meeting only to asked you how come elephant got 8 legs!!! pffftw... (because that's the time when they reached home. hahaha). Eyh, cubalah balek tu pergi bawak duit bekepok kepok ka bestlah jugak.. ini asek riddles yang membuatkan aku rasa nak eyh!-sekeh-karang! hahaha (lepastu kau diam diam cakap dalam hati, hmm.. logic logic jawapan dia! hahaha. baru kau terdiam sana! haha)

We always very noisy whenever or wherever we all sat together. Be it in the car, having meals, strolling around the mall.. anywhere.. you name it.. except for the formal occasions where we hated most! what a waste of time to share stories! hurh!!! I think it runs in the blood for both paternal n maternal side. hahaha.. come to my kampong. mingle around my huuuuge family, you'll love them right away! i kid you not! haha *brag brag* =p

I once had a very bad heartbroken.. very very very bad that I even woke up in the middle of the night, crying and calling or texting my mom just to tell her all those creepy craps. hahahaha... but once laaa.. ONCE... and little that i know Rini n Emak were discussing about this matter behind my back.

One night, I texted Rini after feeling guilty since i kept on bothering Emak for like each and everynight with my stupid disorder! hahaha.. She replied something like this;

You know, Emak said that you deserve someone like Ayah. Not someone like that person. You know how Ayah treat Emak right? Emak said that you are just like her when she was the same age as you. don't worry, Ayah.jr will come enshaAlloh..

You know, my Ayah loves my Emak sooo much that we get scolded just because we complaint about my mom's tasteless soup; he will be nagging us if he knew that Emak is alone at the kitchen doing the dishes while we are happily watching family outing at the hall; my mom is heavy.. in fact heavier than me. but my dad, he once kendong my mom from carpark all the way to the 3rd floor clinic via STAIRCASE and straight to the emergency room because my mom had food poisoning. and you know, even in my twenties ni pun, my dad still will carry me upstairs if say i fell asleep downstairs T___T

Me and Rini (dulu) have this one habit of jadi inspector handphone pergi spot check each and everybody's phone. and Rini, obviously as the nosiest person in the house is the chief inspector. hahaha.. until one day, we bumps into cheesy lovey dovey text(sss) from Emak's phone from Ayah. hahaha.. and the sent item(sss) also checked by us! hahaha.. lepastu, terus seriyau hendak buat any checking. INSAF!! hahaha...

Back to the riddles. Yes we always love it. everytime we came out with the tricky riddles, we always looking forward Ayah's answer because he always the Smart Alex (or Einstein or whatever you name it) in the house! Rini is the one who always come out with some crazily funny and headcracking riddle. Entah dari mana saja budak itu jumpa such riddles. And normally we will asked

logic or not the answer?

hahaha.. because always terkena one! hahaha... when we have like insanely hard riddles, we will like;

wey wey asked Ayah! asked Ayah!

because he always gave us answers yang later when he answer, we all will be amazed and jerit ramai ramai...

wooooooooohhhhhhh!!!! tereeeeeeeeeeeeeeeerrrrr!!

lepastu pergi sambung;

eleh musti Ayah pernah dengar that riddles before kan? kan?

punya tamau ngaku bapak sendirik terer tu! hahaha... oh! and my dad is freaking funny.. but not kind like lawak bodoh type okayh! but he is yeah! and he sings very well! ohffooohhh.. why lah i tak inherit kemerduan suara itu! (hahahaha.. this is sooo random! ingat dekat nonoi! cita cita jadi penyanyi! hahahahahahaha)

Oh! the latest game that I played with Ayah and Emak and Munifa while accompanying Emak taingat dah pergi mana adalah game Ayat Soal! Ianya sangat sangat sangat best! we laughed and almost crying of laughing! hahaha.. main dia macam ni, if you want to say anything, you have to make it in question form. Example;

where are we heading?

aren't we heading home?

we are not going home now aren't we?

Kurang lebih macam tulah... tapi memang fun habis ah! hahaha.. dapat game ni waktu tengok afdlin punya program. punyalah lawak. hahaha...

Few months back, I told Rini about my driver's license post. And then she said that all the important matters like registering bank account, medical check up, renew ic, renew driver's license -senang cerita... hal hal negarawan ni lah!- memang buat dengan Ayah.

During my undergrad years, I have this (you can call it weird if you want to) one habit of using man's deodorant. Actually, the deodorant that i used adalah the same one that used by my dad. It's all because I love the smell of Ayah. Even Amirah macam tapercaya. She even said that I now in the category of WAJIB KAWEN sebab suka bau lelaki. hahahaha.. I don't know. My dad adalah sangat concern about body odor. SANGAT! and he always smell soo good and pleasant. Even when he is going to bed. I think that is why I am sooo attracted terhadap lelaki wangi =p hahaha.. forgive me for this. just being honest i am! hahaha.. and my dad is always sooo smart and tidy. hehe

Ayah is not rich. He is not even come from a rich family. He even got an experienced eating rice with coffee or tea as the gravy. But he own such an angel heart. We are not rich with bucks. But we love each other soo much. And both of Ayah and Ibu always tells us that what so ever happen, family will always be with you. So be good and kind to your family.

Allahu.. misses Ayah... banyaaaaaaaaaaaakk sangat!

I don't care how poor a man is; if he has family, he's rich.
