Memendam rindu dalam diam
seperti menjaga api kecil di tengah badai
tak akan padam 
namun tak mampu menyala terang.
Hanya menggigil dalam sepi
berharap waktu membawa keberanian 
untuk menyentuhmu kembali.

Seperti menatap bulan dari kejauhan,
indah, namun tak tergapai oleh tangan.
Rindu ini adalah sunyi yang berbicara,
mengukir bayangmu di setiap penjuru jiwa.

"Eleh tapi rindu"
"Setiap kali lalu situ, abang teringat kata-kata Saidina Ali"
"………"

"Jangan ingat. Memang sakit la jiwa"

Pain

"If your pain is greater than the love, leave. There's no point to cuddle something that you despise".

I found these notes in my wife’s notebook this morning.

Dosa

"Abang okey?"
"Tak…"
"Kenapa nangis?"
"Tak ada apa…"
"Abang…"
"Mengenang dosa yang banyak…"
"Sebab tu?"
"Haah. Badan abang bergetar masa baca Sahih Muslim tadi. Abang takut…takut dengan peringatan yang nabi bagi…bila teringat dosa. Abang takut masuk api neraka…hmm. Dada pun rasa sempit…"

Tangguh

Setiap hari aku berazam untuk menghubunginya, namun rasa itu aku tangguhkan. Aku rindu semuanya. Dia yang manis, putih bersih kulitnya. Merdu suara, jika ketawa terdengar riang. Rasa dan rindu ini aku pendam dalam-dalam. Kalau dulu, aku selalu memohon agar dia jadi milikku, tetapi kini tidak lagi. Kata Ustaz Zamrul Idrus, kita hanya boleh mohon di jodohkan dengan seseorang yang halal di nikahi. Dia isteri orang - haram untukku, hatta memohon untuk di satukan. Hati aku hancur luluh…

Aku tidak pernah berbohong. Rindu ini sakit. Melawan rasa rindu, pasrah akan takdir lebih menyakitkan. Aku masih menyimpan hasrat untuk menghubunginya atau sekadar menyambung silaturrahim melalui emel, tapi semuanya aku tangguhkan dari sehari ke sehari. Itulah cara aku menjalani hidup - memujuk hati yang sarat dengan air mata. Rindu ini untuknya, tapi Tuhan mentakdirkan dia bukan milikku. Setiap kali jam berdetik 9 pagi atau 10/11 malam - ingatan aku pantas berlari mengingat dia yang jauh di sana.

Aku rindu dia yang manis, tapi aku tahu rindu ini harus pupus. Kata sebuah petikan puisi dari Kita Yang Bercerita, 'Aku merindukan seseorang yang seharusnya kulupakan'. Ketika di Parque Central de Antigua pada 7 September lalu, Ara bertanya 'Tapi manusia suka dengan kenangan. Kenapa, abang?'. Jawabku, 'Kenangan kekal walau hati berubah. Kadang-kadang kita yang tak mahu melupakan, kita yang tak mahu sembuh.' Kataku lagi, 'It's like pain is the only connection between you and the memory'.

Ara membalas 'But it hurts, abang'. Ya, benar. 'If it’s worth it, people don’t mind suffering because it’s worth it'. Aku memetik kata-kata Haruki Murakami, 'I can bear any pain as long as it has meaning.' Ara menyambung pertanyaan 'Why do people pick pain for memories that hurt them?'. Aku tak punya jawapan yang tepat, tapi aku cuba jelaskan sesuatu. 'Maybe memories are treasures that we hold close to our hearts. The busyness of the world can't stop our thoughts from remembering all those bittersweet memories.'

Begitulah aku memberi jawapan sambil mataku memandang langit mengingat seseorang yang tak pernah lekang dari ingatan. Kesabaran itu kata Saidina Ali ada dua: Sabar atas sesuatu yang tidak kau ingini dan sabar menahan diri dari sesuatu yang kau ingini. Kesabaran itu bukan hanya sekadar menunggu, tetapi melibatkan cara kita mengawal diri dan emosi terhadap sesuatu yang berlaku. Sabar itu mudah di ucapkan, tetapi sukar di lakukan. Kata-kata yang ringkas tapi dalam maknanya.

Sekarang Ara berkerja di kampus. Setiap kali memikirkan hal itu, aku rasa tertekan. Barangkali aku membayangkan tanpa pengetahuanku, Ara mempunyai orang lain. Sesiapa pun akan terluka bila kesetiaan telah hilang. Aku dihimpit rasa bersalah. Hakikatnya, aku telah mengganggu rumah tangga orang. Aku mungkin telah hancurkan sebuah keluarga  yang bahagia kerana terlalu menurut kata hati kerana aku gagal mengawal diri. Memendam rindu tidak mudah ibarat menikam diri berkali-kali setiap hari.

The best day

I still remember these words you said to me many, many years ago: 'Tak suka Ryanair. Gegar teruk.' You lamented about Ryanair. I think that was the first time you used Ryanair. I can't remember your destination—maybe Dublin?

I've just set foot in Wales. Yesterday, or maybe the other day, I listened to the song you shared with me a long time ago—High by Lighthouse Family. I still remember that song. It brings back sweet memories that I don't want to forget. I don't want to forget you.

Time is fleeting, and once it passes, it cannot be reclaimed. In Japanese, they say, 今日は二度と戻ってこない (kyō to iu hi wa nidoto modotte konai) — it means 'today will never come again.' The best "today" was when you were with me. A moment frozen in time.

I guess I need to learn to move on once again. I won’t hope for another phone call, but I still find myself hoping for one. I need to let you live as you are, just like before we started contacting each other again. But I guess moving on from you isn’t what I really want.

The posterity—a boy, isn’t it?

Intimacy

"Do not give me flowers to exchange for your intimacy. This is not you, abang." These words struck me deeply. We haven’t had intimacy for quite some time, and I thought perhaps a bouquet of flowers could make up for it. I feel guilty. I feel like I haven’t fulfilled my responsibilities as a husband. Thank you for being patient with me.

I recently read an article by Abigail Brenner that made me reflect. There are several key points I want to share with you, which I’ve written down:

A) We learn from the feelings and behaviors of our partner. Gaining new perspectives through their life experience enhances the quality of our own.

B) A healthy relationship nurtures and embraces each of our unique qualities.

C) You feel free and comfortable to express what’s on your mind.

D) You truly “listen” to what your partner is saying—not just the words, but the emotions and feelings they express through their actions and behaviors.

E) Ideally, you and your partner are aligned on key life issues—family values, raising children, religious and spiritual beliefs, even politics.

F) There’s an unshakable confidence that no matter what happens, your partner will remain loyal to you and to the relationship. They will honor their commitments, refrain from lies, and remain open to resolving any difficulties that arise.

G) Learning how to give and take is essential in problem-solving. But above all, each partner must equally contribute to making major decisions and choices.

I) A healthy relationship teaches us that by standing together and moving forward as one, we will successfully reach what awaits us on the other side. Unity provides strength and balance.

Although what Abigail Brenner writes may not directly relate to what I’m trying to convey, I want you to know that I truly believe we share a healthy relationship, and for that, I am grateful. I used to strive for makoto in every aspect of my life, but I am not impeccable. I made a mistake, and I regret it. I'm struggling to express myself and I’m sorry.

Syrian civil war

The opposition group, Hayat Tahrir al-Sham, has claimed to have taken control of Damascus, forcing Bashar al-Assad to flee Syria. This development has been widely celebrated by Muslims worldwide, as Bashar is regarded as a tyrant responsible for years of civilian slaughter since the Arab Spring uprising in 2011. Bashar has received support from Iran, Russia, and Hezbollah, while Hayat Tahrir al-Sham, formerly known as Jabhat al-Nusra before rebranding, has been backed with financial, military, and logistical aid from the United States, Turkey, and Gulf states, including Saudi Arabia and Qatar. Initially, Hayat Tahrir al-Sham was linked to al-Qaeda.

I miss you

I had dreams two days in a row. I woke up, took a bath (it’s winter, but Asian people still take baths wherever they go), and prayed (for you). It was a dream about you, though I don’t remember the details. I’ve been trying to keep you off my mind, but in the end, you’re the one I always think about. A few days ago, my wife shared a video, and it reminded me of you. Take care, sweetheart. I miss you a lot.

Hybrid warfare

A news report states that a Chinese ship, the Yi Peng 3, is suspected of intentionally cutting underwater cables in Sweden and Finland. The ship, which has a Russian captain, was in the vicinity when two undersea cables were damaged, raising concerns of sabotage amid ongoing geopolitical tensions. While Swedish and Finnish authorities are investigating, the Kremlin has denied any Russian involvement, labeling accusations as absurd. The incidents have prompted discussions about hybrid warfare targeting critical infrastructure in Europe.

_

Recent reports indicate that a Russian submarine, specifically the Ufa, was spotted in Philippine waters, leading to concerns about its presence in the region. The submarine surfaced 148 km west of Mindoro on November 28, prompting the Philippine Navy to track it. Analysts suggest this may signal Russia's support for China amid rising tensions in the South China Sea. Philippine President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. expressed concern over the intrusion into the nation's exclusive economic zone, highlighting the geopolitical implications of such military movements.

Transhausen by Proxy


Munchausen syndrome by proxy, also known as Factitious Disorder Imposed on Another, is a psychological condition. Recently, a term called "Transhausen by Proxy" has emerged in Western culture, which some argue is a growing issue. Many political experts believe one of the factors contributing to Donald Trump's victory in the recent U.S. presidential election was his opposition to this trend.

Transhausen by Proxy refers to a situation where someone indirectly experiences or engages with transgender identity or issues without being transgender themselves. In short, it is alleged that some parents groom their children to be transgender. I feel deeply disturbed seeing people do this to their children. How can parents impose such a harmful ideology on their own child?

Fatherhood

I had a great day snowboarding with my toddlers. This isn’t their first time snowboarding, as they started skiing at an early age. Toddlers aren’t afraid to try new things; they are courageous. Omne initium difficile, but now nothing can stop them. They’re capable of much more than we often think. Never underestimate their abilities.

Two months ago, I took them camping outdoors, and they really enjoyed it. I also go hiking with them, carrying all of them—much like a Sherpa carrying gear to Everest Base Camp. I firmly believe that kids should have fun and learn outside the house. They belong in nature, and I find joy in introducing them to its beauty.

Studies show that children become more intelligent and dynamic when they spend time with their fathers. Research also reveals that kids experience their highest oxytocin levels while playing with their dads and their highest levels while cuddling with their moms. Fatherhood is amazing—it’s a journey that truly makes my heart soar.

Cyprus

Since deciding to move from Costa Rica to Cyprus, I’ve felt a lingering sense of unease that I can’t quite explain. Cyprus, a small island nation divided between Greek Cypriots and Turkish Cypriots, holds strategic significance in the Eastern Mediterranean. My research revealed that Jewish investors have been purchasing property on a large scale in Cyprus, which maintains strong ties with Greece. The presence of an Israeli military base on the island further highlights its importance. Given its proximity to Turkey, Cyprus finds itself at the crossroads of regional power struggles. Some speculate that these developments are linked to broader territorial ambitions tied to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. 

This reminds me of similar patterns unfolding in Southeast Asia, particularly in Malaysia. Mainland Chinese investors have been acquiring significant properties in Malaysian cities, a trend that mirrors the situation in Cyprus and Greece. Meanwhile, tensions between Malaysia and China have escalated, particularly over territorial disputes. China recently claimed the Luconia Shoals (locally known as Gugusan Beting Raja Jarum) in its new map. These shoals, located just 100 kilometers from Sarawak but over 2,000 kilometers from mainland China, are a critical flashpoint. Chinese coast guard vessels have reportedly chased Malaysian fishing boats and warned Malaysia against exploring oil and gas in the area.

Amid these tensions, the arrival of the U.S. Navy's USS Abraham Lincoln in Malaysia signals American interest in countering China’s growing regional influence. China’s claim over territories like Nankang Ansha (Beikang Ansha) appears aimed at limiting U.S. military expansion and preventing Asia from becoming a strategic base for American forces. The U.S. is also closely monitoring the ties between Malaysian Chinese communities and mainland China, viewing them as a potential challenge. Similarly, Washington’s focus on Taiwan reflects the ongoing power struggle with Beijing in the Indo-Pacific. These events underscore the careful maneuvering of global powers, each advancing their influence like pieces on a chessboard.

Gennaris Bionic Vision System

Researchers at Monash University in Australia have developed the world's first bionic eye, the Gennaris Bionic Vision System, offering new hope to millions affected by blindness. This groundbreaking technology bypasses damaged optic nerves, transmitting visual signals directly to the brain's vision center. The Gennaris system, developed over nearly a decade, features a miniature camera worn by the user and up to 11 wireless implants, each about the size of a thumbnail, placed on the brain's surface. These implants deliver tiny electrical pulses to stimulate brain cells, enabling users to perceive basic shapes and outlines. With a 100-degree field of view, the system provides a more natural vision experience compared to earlier technologies.

RV

The automotive industry is undergoing a significant shift, with many manufacturers transitioning from internal combustion engine (ICE) vehicles to electric vehicles (EVs). Tesla may have pioneered the EV market, but China has taken the lead, surpassing many global competitors. Experts warn that the growing preference for EVs could drastically reduce the resale value (RV) of ICE vehicles, potentially spelling trouble for the second-hand car market.

Chinese EVs, known for their affordability, are often viewed as disposable, limiting their presence in the second-hand market. This trend poses a serious threat to the sustainability of the used car industry. Japan, after years of prioritizing hydrogen technology, has recently shifted its focus toward EVs, moving away from its earlier emphasis on hybrids and hydrogen-powered vehicles. Meanwhile, India is exploring the use of water as a potential fuel source.

Embracing Japanese Literature

My love for Japanese literature began through one of my favorite Malay writers, who often expressed admiration for Japanese authors. He frequently referenced iconic figures like Masuji Ibuse, renowned for Black Rain, Natsume Soseki, celebrated for Kokoro and Botchan, and Yasunari Kawabata, the first Japanese Nobel laureate in literature. He also mentioned Yukio Mishima, best known for The Sailor Who Fell from Grace with the Sea.

In recent years, Japanese literature has become a cultural phenomenon in Malaysia, captivating book lovers nationwide. This growing interest has led Malaysian publishers to actively translate works by Japanese and Korean authors, enriching the literary scene with fresh perspectives. This initiative not only fosters a deeper appreciation for literature but also inspires more people to discover the joy of reading.

Mike Tyson

Sekuat mana tumbukan Mike Tyson semasa muda?

Rata-rata tumbukan lelaki biasa dalam 150 PSI. Manakala peninju profesional dalam 800 PSI. Jake Paul memiliki tumbukan sekitar 800 PSI dan ke atas.

Akan tetapi, kekuatan tumbukan Mike Tyson pada umur muda dulu sekitar 1,800 PSI. Bagaimana persamaan 1800 PSI? Ia umpama seseorang dilanggar kenderaan pada kecepatan 70km sejam, boleh mati kalau kena langgar kenderaan selaju itu. Jika kenderaan itu melanggar dinding, dinding boleh roboh. Serta jika kekuatan tumbukan itu dihentak pada permukaan logam, logam boleh remuk.

Semasa babak pertarungan Donny Yen dengan Mike Tyson dalam Ip-Man, ia sendiri mengakui dia takut sekiranya mati ditumbuk oleh Mike dalam babak tersebut.

Hara & I

She often sends me Bubu and Dudu videos. They're so cute, funny, and always make me smile. We’ve made a promise to only have arguments in our bedroom because we don’t want our kids to hear us fighting. We want a healthy environment for our kids.

A few weeks ago, I had a dream. I saw her walking side by side with a man while wearing a white wedding dress. I watched her from behind as she walked down the aisle. It filled me with sadness. I don’t ever want to lose her. I love our marriage deeply.

When I met her, I was at my lowest, completely heartbroken. She gave me hope and the strength to rise again. She brought me courage and offered her whole world just to see me happy. She works so hard and always gives her best. She is truly incredible.

Ya Allah, make my spouse a blessing for me and not a trial. And may I be a blessing for her and not a trial. "Allahumma alif baina qulubina wa aslih dhaata baynina wahdina subula as-salam." (O Allah, unite our hearts, reconcile us, and guide us to peace).

Intimacy

Some scholars interpret the maximum permissible separation between spouses (without intimacy) as four months. Studies suggest that couples should engage in sexual intimacy at least 52 times a year. Imam Al-Ghazali, in his book Ihya Ulum al-Din, advises that a husband should be intimate with his wife every four days.

I haven’t lost interest in you, nor have you lost your youthful charm. I don’t know what’s happening to me, but my thoughts weigh heavily on me every day. I’m battling with my mind and don’t know how to stop that beast from resurfacing or invading my thoughts. It’s something from 10 years ago, and I try not to dwell on it, but I know I’ve failed.

Happy Monday, my love. I’ll fetch you today.


Footnote: Yes, I’m intentionally giving you a leaf instead of a flower. Maybe you can use it as a bookmark (please don’t fold the pages of the book you borrowed from me).

AI

The OpenAI O1 model has demonstrated exceptional performance, scoring 120 on a Mensa-developed IQ test—well above the average human IQ of 100. In contrast, Claude 3 from Anthropic is estimated to have an IQ of 100. OpenAI’s newest model, however, stands out with an estimated IQ of 155, comparable to Elon Musk's IQ of 153 and Einstein's IQ of 160. Ranking in the top 0.1% of test takers, this model showcases remarkable proficiency in understanding and generating human-like text.

"Human beings will become the second most intelligent beings on the planet. We have a general idea of what it's doing, but once it becomes really complicated, we don't actually know what's going on—any more than we fully understand what's happening in our own brains," said Geoffrey Hinton, the father of AI, in an interview.

When asked, "What do you mean we don't know exactly how it works? It was designed by people," Hinton responded:

"No, it wasn't. What we designed was the learning algorithm. It's a bit like designing the principles of evolution. But when this learning algorithm interacts with data, it produces complex neural networks that are effective at solving tasks, but we don’t fully understand how they do it."

Bolt

If you’re considering alternatives to Grab, Bolt and Lalamove now offer e-hailing services. Maxim is another option, known for its competitive fares and additional house cleaning services.

Barang Siam

"Kita beli barang Siam sana abang bebel. Kita beli dekat Changi okey aje"
"Orang Singapore shopping dekat JB. Orang Siam mana ada beli barang Malaysia"
"Itu pun abang kira"
"Rakyat Malaysia belanja dekat Siam 4 hari RM 100 juta. Tak bagus untuk ekonomi"
"Mentang kampung dia, kita beli Singapore tak apa kan. Siam dok leh"

"Abang tahu tak, girls tak suka laki lembab, lembik. Kayu acam boleh terima lagi. Slow buat kita panas hati. Semua kena cakap acam jaga anak"
"Abang slow tak?"
"Dia lagi slow"
"Nasib baik"
"Girls tak suka laki good-good. Acam keras la sikit, lembik aje, slow pulak. Haihh rimas lemas"
"Tengok girl school kalau dapat kutuk laki"
"Benda betul"
"Memang ada kajian perempuan lebih sayang laki toksik"
"Jangan pusing eh. Girl school cakap tak suka laki good-good acam nerd, bajet terpaling bagus"
"Sama la tu"
"Tak"

Happy Thursday

There are 86,400 seconds in a day, and in every single one of them, you’re on my mind.

Happy Thursday, my love. I miss you.

"Your absence is a wound that time refuses to heal; each moment apart feels like a lifetime lost." (Unknown)

I write to you every day, but I never send any of my letters.

Minggu lepas

"Ada komen tulis 'Bertuah dapat suami iron baju sendiri'. Kita nak aje reply 'Bertuah tau dapat buat. Suami kita semualah dia buat sendiri macam wife dah meninggal. Kita kerja dia iron baju, tengah hari hantar lunch. Wife takde function"
"Kalau abang larang nanti jadi gaduh. Buat apa Ara nak buat. Abang tak bagi masak sebab tak nak Ara penat tapi kalau Ara nak buat, abang okey je"
"Abang tapaya hantar lunch tau. Kita tahu jaga diri kita"

Vivy Yusof



I believe that Vivy Sofinas Yusof and her husband have responsibly managed the substantial funding received from Khazanah and PNB for FashionValet. Although Vivy’s aristocratic background is often noted, her accomplishments stem from her passion, commitment, and consistent hard work. She has devoted her full energy and resources to bring her vision to life. I am uncertain why the MACC (Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission) has launched an investigation into her. Some speculate it may be due to the reported RM43 million loss, and there are accusations from netizens suggesting misuse of funds. However, I believe an investigation might not be necessary, as it could discourage other startups from seeking funding out of fear of facing similar scrutiny. The government should prioritize sound decision-making over public sentiment, leading the way rather than reacting to netizen demands.

Rancang kewangan

"Abang dah okey. Badan panas sekejab bukan demam"
"No work today"
"Dapat kes baru. Suami meninggal, rumah beli kongsi. Keluarga laki tuntut. Harta tak automatik dapat dekat bini. Kena masuk faraid. Bahagian suami 50%"
"Last mesti wife dapat habuk aje, kan?"
"Hutang laki dia 300 ribu lebih. Tak nak bagi harta dekat bini kot. Awal letak nama mak dia"
"Agak dah. Orang laki emang acam tu astu buatpe kawin"
"Laki jangan rancang keluarga setakat masa hidup. Macam abang, abang fikir kalau abang mati, duit yang abang tinggal cukup tak untuk Ara sara keluarga. Ara anak 7 bukan senang nak kawin lain. Laki bukannya nak kawin kalau anak ramai. Tak minta tapi kena fikir bila kita mati pasangan dapat teruskan hidup dengan apa yang kita tinggalkan. Abang tak nak bini abang susah besarkan anak sebab abang yang gagal rancang kewangan. Abang nak kubur lapang bila mati"
"Jauhnya fikir. Kita tak pernah terlintas fikir berat acam tu"
"Mati bila-bila pun boleh. Kalau gagal buat perancangan bermakna kita merancang untuk gagal. Nabi cakap"
"Tak nak la cakap pasal mati"
"Apa la perangai tak nak bagi bini harta. Kesian bini sampai merempat pun ada. Boleh je buat auto tak payah masuk faraid tapi tu la. Bini paling layak dapat. Dia susah-susah hidup dengan kita, tinggal keluarga, kadang berhenti kerja alih-alih semua bagi mak. Bukan kebelakangkan mak tapi dahulukan keluarga sendiri. Nafkah pun kena bagi bini dulu baru mak. Kesian client abang sampai jumpa psikiatri stres sangat"
"Bang"
"Hmm?"
"Diam shhhh"
"Okey"
"………"
"Laa nangis pulak"
"Kita tak nak abang mati. Kita mati takpe. Abang kawin aje lain"
"Abang mati Ara tak kawin lain, kan?"
"Confident aje"
"Abang percaya Ara tak kawin tapi jodoh tak tahu la"
"Acam mana abang tahu?"
"Abang kan pakar haha"
"Abang kawin tak kalau kita tak ada?"
"Tak kot. Letih jaga bini kalah jaga kembar. Tak nak dah. Serik hahahaha"
"Eeeee!" *pap pap pap*

Smoothie

Aku tak minum smoothie. Aku mula kenal smoothie bila aku berkawan dengan Ara. Ara suka smoothie. Selepas berkahwin, aku belajar buat smootie dengan campuran yang lebih segar dan berkhasiat. Aku asingkan smoothie khas untuk Ara yang manis sedikit dari smoothie yang lain. Aku ingin dia nikmati tanpa ada rasa kekurangan. Setiap kali Ara masak, dia asingkan kuah - untuk aku yang tak pedas. Aku dapat menikmati masakan sepuasnya tanpa mengadu "Sedap, tapi pedas. Abang tak boleh makan." Perut aku sensitif pedas.

Aku pun tak nak dia mengadu "Kalau manis sikit, sedap". Kami masing-masing pandai menjaga diet jadi tak ada apa yang perlu di gusarkan. Setiap kali berkesempatan, aku buatkan smoothie sebagai sarapan. Anak-anak bawa ke sekolah bersama bekal nasi goreng. Ketika Ara masih berkerja, aku siapkan bekal untuk di bawa ke pejabat. Kadang- kadang aku selitkan sehelai nota cinta. Aku rasa gembira buat sesuatu untuk dia. Kata bijak pandai "Love is in the quiet acts that make her feel valued and cared for."

Bila Ara balik kerja, makanan sudah tersedia. Aku suka makanan rebus dan sup panas. Aku tak makan makanan bergoreng. Aku lebih suka makanan yang di panggang atau di bakar (khasnya ikan bakar). Aku sediakan makanan ringkas sahaja untuk Ara. Perempuan tak suka makan malam yang berat. Mereka bimbang berat badan. Ara tak sama seperti aku. Dia tak cerewet. Semua makanan dia makan dan tak kisah mencuba sesuatu yang baru. Ara mempunyai pengetahuan yang baik berkaitan makanan dan pemakanan. 

Aku suka urutkan kaki Ara setiap kali dia balik dari kerja. Urutan kaki baik untuk melancarkan peredaran darah, mengurangkan ketegangan dan membuatkan diri lebih tenang. Sambil urut, aku bertanya tentang bicara kes di mahkamah. Dia pula bercerita tentang lawatan ke penjara, keputusan Yany Arif atau isu-isu berkaitan dunia kehakiman. Aku dengar patah bicaranya dengan teliti, cuba beri respons jika perlu. Selesai mengurut, aku siapkan susu panas untuk Ara. Minuman yang baik untuk dapatkan tidur yang berkualiti. 

Sampai sekarang aku masih lagi urutkan kaki Ara walau dia sudah tidak berkerja. Sewaktu Ara mengandung, dia selalu lenguh-lenguh badan. Dia tak dapat tidur malam. Alahan sangat teruk, muntah setiap hari. Ara sukar tidur - baring tak kena, mengiring tak kena. Sudahnya, setiap malam dia bersandar pada aku - barulah dapat tidur dengan lena. Kembar pula aktif, suka menendang. Ara jadi tak selesa. Sewaktu Ara mengandung, aku rasa kasihan sangat dengan dia - mudah keletihan, pening, mual, muntah - semuanya ada.

Did you know, that we have a special connection to the stars up in the sky? A long, long time ago, before you, me, or even the Earth was here, there were giant stars way up in space. Inside those stars, a magical thing happened. They made the same things that are now in your body!

So, the stars made tiny bits called 'nitrogen,' and that's now in your body helping you grow! They made 'calcium,' and now it's in your teeth, making them nice and strong. And iron, which is in your blood and helps you run and play! And, guess what? Even the yummy apples you eat have tiny bits that stars made!

One day, those stars went ‘BOOM’ in a big, bright explosion! And all those little bits floated out and became part of our world. Isn’t that amazing? You have a bit of star inside you, making you extra special!

Haruman Terindah


 

Salah sendiri

"Abang cakap 'A woman can love one man but marry another'"
"Ha"
"Tapi kan"
"Nak argue jugak lagi"
"Mesti laaa"
"A man is a giver and provider. If he fails to meet a girl's expectations, he may lose her. Girls often seek the best. In the end, the best man wins. Trivia: A woman can love two men at the same time"
"Laki pun ehhh"
"Tapi laki setia"
"Sebelum kawin boleh percaya. Lepas kawin mmm"
"Ada la tu"
"Abang still tak move on?"
"Tak nak cakap hal tu"
"Alaaa kita nak tahu aje"
"Nak tahu apa?"
"Abang sedihkan apa?"
"Sedih la. Salah diri sendiri. Bukan salah orang. Kalau ada orang yang perlu di salahkan, yang bertanggungjawab…bukan sesiapa tapi abang. Dah tutup kes"
"Tapi kan"
"Abang nak tidur. Tadi suruh rehat"
"Jab laaa"

Hidung darah

"Hidung darah astu nak pergi sembahyang"
"Dah berhenti"
"Tengok tu"
"Ra, baju dekat atas abang dah kemas. Ara jangan sepahkan lagi. Abang ada abang boleh kemas. Kalau abang mati, siapa nak kemas untuk Ara?"
"Badan panas sikit cakap pasal mati. Tak suka la"
"Faham tak abang cakap?"
"Tak dengar"
"Abang pergi dulu. Ingat tu jangan sepah"
"Jab tau kita hantar abang"
"Tak payah"
"Kita hantar astu kita tunggu"
"Abang nak lama sikit dekat masjid"
"Abang mmmm jangan cakap pasal mati"
"Masak apa hari ni?"
"Ayam penyet"
"Nanti kita makan sama"
"Nak peluk"
"Abang ada wuduk"
"Mmmm"
"Abang minta maaf untuk segala kekurangan abang"

Syurga duit

"Situ syurga business Malaysia. Tempat tak dapat trace kalau buat business. Segala business ada. Banking, investment, fintech, trust and wealth management, O&G, trading. Banyak syarikat luar"
"Tak pernah tahu"
"Operate dari sana tak ada cukai"
"Abang selalu pergi Kundasang tak?"
"Tak. Pergi masjid dekat KK je"
"Masjid aje?"
"Ye"
"Ye ke?"
"Habis tu nak pergi mana lagi?"
"Eleh"
"Tinggi-tinggi Gunung Kinabalu
Tinggi lagi sayang sama kamu
Biru-biru hujung Kinabalu
Tengok dari jauh hati saya rindu"
"Kenapa suka lagu tu? Nyanyi aje senyum"
"Abang tak suka Sabah. Abang suka Sarawak tapi gunung suka Kinabalu tak suka Niah"
"Apa kaitan, bang?"
"Tak ada kaitan haha"

Berkira dengan anak

"Dapat lagi kes ada anak tapi harta tak nak bagi anak"
"Dia nak bagi siapa?"
"Jual semua. Anak nak harta cari sendiri. Apa punya mak bapak la"
"Rasa rugi ke acam mana?"
"Dulu dia hidup susah kerja teruk. Dia rasa tak adil anak merasa senang sebab usaha dia. Dia siap cakap anak menumpang harta dia. Apa pun dia tak tinggalkan untuk anak"
"Ada eh orang cenggini?"
"Ramai. Abang pernah hidup susah tak nak anak rasa susah macam abang. Cukup abang je rasa. Tak rugi pun tinggal harta untuk anak. Dia boleh teruskan legasi kita. Dia susah kita cuba bantu tapi jangan sampai tak pandai berdiri atas kaki sendiri. Entah mak bapak sekarang. Pelik je otak"

Nyamuk

"Bang, ni soket apa senanya?"
"Penghalau nyamuk elektrik"
"Apasal tak cakap?"
"Abang dah cakap masa kita pindah"

"Mmmmm penat tau jari kita picit spray. Abang la tak cakap"

Cari hati

"Ara cari apa sampai sepah bilik atas?"
"Hati abang. Dekat mana eh?"
"Tak ada dekat Ara?"
"Entah macam tak ada"
"Macam mana boleh tak ada?"
"Orang curi kot"
"Siapa curi?"
"Abang rasa?"
"Abang rasa ada dengan Ara"
"Ara rasa tak ada"
"Kenapa tak ada?"
"Abang tak cakap I love you. Do you even love me?"
"Ara tahu apa beza laki dengan perempuan? Perempuan, kalau tak suka, benci, meluat dia masih boleh buatkan air untuk suami. Dia boleh maniskan muka walau hati dah tawar. Itu hebatnya perempuan. Dia boleh pura-pura sayang, pura-pura ambil berat. Laki, kalau tak suka, tak sayang, meluat, benci jangan kata nak senyum, nak pandang pun tak nak. Laki tak pandai fake care, fake love. Dia takkan buat kalau dia tak suka, tak sayang"
"Mmmmm"
"Kalau tak sayang…abang tak kawin dengan Ara. A woman can love a man deeply but still choose to marry someone else. But when a man falls in love, he often closes off to anyone else"
"Do you love me?"
"Yes"
"Then say it"
"Why should I?"
"’Cause I wanna hear you say it"
"Kejab Ara. Abang sakit dada"

Benda boleh gaduh

"Tak kuasa la bertenang"
"Kenapa tu?"
"Benda boleh gaduh, kita gaduh dulu. Kemudian bincang"
"Hmm"
"Asal gaduh aje tak matang acam dia yang tak gaduh matang sangat astu orang cakap tak percaya rumah tangga kerap gaduh tanda bahagia"
"Ara rasa macam mana?"
"Benda boleh gaduh. Penat tau pendam. Gaduh aje la. Lepas gaduh tak payah fikir"
"Tu yang kemudian bincang"
"Tak payah bincang. Dah gaduh"

10 kids

I ran 12KM today (it's my habit to run 8 to 12KM daily) and took a rest at a park. I overheard someone say, 'He has 10 kids, like a football team.' My thoughts flew to you. Yes, I really want 10 kids with you—no kidding. I know you'll give me 10 kids. You wouldn’t say, ‘quality over quantity.’ You’d agree to have as many as I want.

Those years… when we were madly in love…

Unspoken distance

It's been a month without any intimacy with Ara, and she's started asking why. I know we'll have to talk about it soon, but I don’t really know what to say since I’m not even sure what’s going on myself.

Isu telekung

"Boleh tak abang tolong kita?"
"Tolong apa?"
"Susah jadi perempuan…"
"Ara…kenapa ni?"
"Abang tahu tak Pejabat Mufti Selangor keluarkan ijtihad. Perempuan pakai lengan pendek tak sah sembahyang. Kena pakai lengan panjang dalam telekung and telekung tak boleh terpisah tudung dan kain. One piece aje astu kena pakai serkup kepala tak pun anak tudung yang tutup sampai ke leher"
"Siapa cakap tu?"
"Susah la nak sembahyang. Berat…membebankan. Ramai murung bila tahu. Astu perempuan tak boleh pakai baju kelawar.Tak sah"
"Ara bukan pakai pun baju tu"
"Emang la tapi se-Malaysia tak puas hati. Viral tau"
"Baca dekat mana?"
"FB"
"Nak abang tolong apa?"
"Nak nangis aje. Letih jadi perempuan. One piece nampak bentuk dada. Tak faham la. Serabut baca. Kita baca banyak kali astu keliru. Manjang cari salah perempuan. Asyik nak nerakakan kita aje mmm"
"Islam tu memudahkan tak membebankan. Mufti Wilayah tak keluarkan apa-apa?"
"Tak sure. Tolong kita, please. Kita tak nak solat pakai lengan panjang. Acam tak selesa. Dalam rumah kan"
"Nanti abang cari jawapan"
"Maceh tau"
"Dah. Jangan nangis"
