"eh dia tak tau dia pregnant pun. Tau-tau dah 8 bulan. umur dan 40 lebih. Anak dengan mak meninggal sekali. Boleh macam tu ye?", kata sorang akak tu. Sorang lagi menyambung, kongsi cerita yang relevant dgn topik "ada sorang tu, dah umur 46, pregnant lagi", penuh gaya dan ekspresi yang bersesuaian. "oooooo...iye ke? Itu mungkin dia tu tinggi dan besar, tak perasan pun dia pregnant", sambut ahli sembang lain berkongsi teori telahan sendiri. Ahli-ahli sembang lain sekadar angguk-angguk sambil meng'absorb' the story. Demikian antara butir-butir dialog sementara menunggu Arif balik sekolah. Biasa la...eavesdropping, tanpa rasa bersalah. Insiden ketika menunggu di bawah porch kereta guru sehingga jam 6.30. It was raining quite heavily yesterday and decided to wait for Arif near his class. Pada mulanya I was alone tapi semakin hampir waktu sekolah tamat, I was joined by these women...mak-mak. Familiar faces who I encountered whenever I was asked by Arif to fetch him from school if I happens to be on leave.
These women are much younger than me. Their children who are of the same age as Arif wd probably be their eldest or perhaps their second child. Mine, the youngest. Kakak said to me when Arif was born in 2004. "Hah...u will be the oldest mother waiting for anak balik sekolah. Nanti someone will ask u...tunggu cucu ke?" Heeeeyyyyyyy!!!!!! hehehe......
These women macam ada geng sendiri. They wd be lepaking at one spot and others will join one by one. Biasala...socialising..which is ok. Just that, dalam ramai-ramai, one mother in particular who is by far most outstanding. Yesterday was, in black head to toe, body fitting 1/3 sleeve lycra and leggings. Decent enough. But when u go closer, hmmmm....quite a sight. Imagine the same attire, all whites from head to toe. Go closer....whaaam!!! hey that is a nice lace pattern at the 'centre'. She wore that once and i was like...stunned. Daring i tell u! She was smiling away greeting her friends along the way. (The men were having a feast...aaarrrgghhh!!!)
Apa aku tulis ni???? hahahahaha....
