Something better

I received unfortunate news from my employer in one of the Arab countries that they have canceled my contract. The cancellation came suddenly and without any explanation. In response, I have sent a letter requesting an explanation, hoping that everything will be resolved positively.

"And We will surely test you with something of fear and hunger and a loss of wealth and lives and fruits, but give good tidings to the patient, Who, when disaster strikes them, say, 'Indeed we belong to Allah, and indeed to Him we will return.'" (Quran 2:155-156)

Good morning!

I wanted to call you to say goodbye, but my mind keeps telling me to save it for later. Every time I wanted to call you, I would save it for later. My mind stops me from doing that. Maybe my heart is still trying hard to heal.

Good morning! What did you have for breakfast today? I had black coffee with a plate of nasi lemak.

Fly me to the moon

Yang manis jelita

"Abang tak minat"

"Sebab?"

"Abang dah ada isteri"

"Poyo. Betul-betul la"

"Betul"

"Agak dah"

"Satu susah nak handle. Nak dua"

"Susah ke handle kita?"

"Susah"

"Kita simple je. Abang tu"

"Abang simple je. Ara tu"

"Confirm 100% tak nak?"

"Dia tak tahu kan plan Ara"

"Nope"

"Okey la tu. Taklah dia malu. Nanti macam dia je beria"

"Apa sal abang tak suka?"

"Bukan abang. Hati abang"

"Hati abang suka siapa?"

"Ara yang manis jelita"

Maulid Nabi

Yesterday, I took the children to Tsutaya Bookstore, and afterwards, we had Korean food as a treat. When we got home, we cleaned up before going to the mosque. At the mosque, we listened to a lecture about the Prophet's birthday. They also had a book exhibition there, and I bought three sets of books about Prophet Muhammad and his companions. On our way back from the mosque, we stopped at a mamak restaurant, where Umar, Adam, and I enjoyed teh tarik and cheese naan.

(While I wait for my wife, who is having dinner with her friend for the second time tonight, I thought I'd write a quick note.)

Beautiful city

Today is our last day in Kuala Lumpur, so I decided to take my in-laws' family to Shangri-La Hotel, Kuala Lumpur to enjoy some delicious Japanese food.

It's rather bittersweet to bid farewell to this beautiful city.

Going out

I used to call them kids, but one of them now has a driver's license and they are going out to chill at Mid Valley.

Silaturrahim

Hari ini kami bertandang ke beberapa buah rumah; melawat kawan Ara yang sakit akibat sihir dan dua buah rumah ibu saudaranya di sebelah ibunya. Ara gemar menyambung silaturrahim, sama seperti kedua orang tuanya. Sejak berkahwin, banyak juga rumah yang Ara bawa ziarah. Mereka menyambut kami dengan ramah dan mesra.

Hingga saat ini…

Masih sayang...

A story from your childhood

While I was at Tsutaya Bookstore, I noticed a young girl sitting in the corner of a bookshelf, engrossed in a book. It reminded me of a time when you shared a story from your childhood about accompanying your mother on shopping trips. While she would browse for items, you would often find a cozy spot in a bookstore, pick up a book, and start reading. I decided to purchase two boxes of books and donate them to an orphanage in your name as a sadaqah.

Pusat

I can't sleep. It's 3 am, and I assume you're probably sleeping. You usually go to bed early, before 12 am.

I still find it funny when I saw a signboard that read 'Pusat Zakat,' but I misread it as 'Pusat Zakar.'

Do you remember that? Maybe not...

Impressive collection

Today, I'm taking all of my children to Tsutaya Bookstore in Bukit Jalil. It's my first visit to this place since it opened. Tsutaya is a spacious bookstore imported from Japan, known for its elegant decor. It houses an impressive collection of nearly 240,000 books for sale. To uphold their quality standards, every book undergoes a careful process of being wrapped in transparent plastic covers. This precautionary measure is taken due to previous instances of ill-behaved customers mishandling the books, leading to instances of vandalism, removed covers, and torn pages. By diligently encasing the books in protective plastic, the bookstore aims to safeguard them against potential damage and maintain their pristine condition.

Jelmaan

Lelaki hebat

Rindu Ummi. Rindu sangat...

Air rambut tak sikat

Adam: Daddy beli apa?

Daddy: Air rambut tak sikat

Kakak: Finally! Thanks daddy!

Umar: Kakak over

Adam: Babang suka kecam Kakak

Kakak: Kan. Kesian Kakak yang cantik

Umar: Perasan

Dukung

"Sweet la you ni. Bonda and Nenda happy gila dapat bunga"

"Ara tak happy?"

"Mesti la. Hilang demam"

"Jom turun. Abang beli banyak makanan"

"Abang dari mana?"

"Panjang perjalanan. Jom makan"

"Dukung"

"Haip!"

"Hihi"

Pure joy

I went to the cemetery to honor Ummi, Carl, and Zharif. After that, I went to the flower shop and bought four bouquets of flowers. My plan was to give one bouquet to my wife, another to my mother-in-law, a third to my wife's grandmother, and the last one to the founder of the orphanage where I have been living for almost two years. When I saw the founder, she looked healthy and happy. This is the place where I first met my late adopted mom. It feels like home to me, where I truly belong.

I wanted to bring some joy to the children at the orphanage, so I bought them lunch and treated them to some delicious treats. I got them a slice of Secret Recipe marble cheesecake, and a cup of Starbucks double chocolaty chip creme frappuccino. Their faces lit up with happiness as they enjoyed the special treats. It made me nostalgic and reminded me of the pure joy I used to feel when I had a meal all to myself, without having to share it with anyone else.

Highest heaven

Losing people who are close to us can leave a big emptiness in our lives. The pain of the separation between life and death is very difficult to bear, and it brings sadness to my life. I hope that Ummi, Carl, and Zharif find peace in the highest heaven, as granted by Allah.

Never cross the line

I feel very angry when you enter my private property and shout like a monkey while searching for my wife as if you were a gangster. Up until now, I have managed to hide my anger. I pretend that nothing has happened in front of my wife, concealing all the bad words and anger inside me. I don't mind if you say something bad about me. I don't care. However, when someone says something negative about the person I love, or tries to touch her, they have crossed the line, and I hate that.

Never cross the line, my friend. Everyone has their own limits.

Sisa

"Kenapa tak tidur?"

"Tak boleh"

"Fikir Haff?"

"Ye la. Ara takut"

"Alah, semua orang boleh buat jahat kalau bernyawa. Kena tanam hiduo-hidup baru ada akal. Sia-sia mati tak bernisan"

"Macam mana dia tahu kita pergi sana?"

"Entah. Tak ada orang follow kita pun"

"Pelik la"

"Ada la tu dia tahu dari mana-mana"

"Mmm…"

"Dia memang jenis kalau nak bertumbuk bawa satu rombongan eh?

"Ha'a"

"1 by 1 tak berani. Ada t**** buat apa? Perhiasan?"

"Mana Ara tahu. Abang ni"

"Abang malas nak gaduh depan orang tua, ada budak. Datang tempat orang nak tunjuk taiko. Perangai macam apa je"

"Abang…terima kasih pertahankan Ara. Ara malu dengan diri sendiri"

"Baru percaya abang sayang Ara?"

"Taklah"

"Habis tu"

"Tak ada apa tapi kan, mulut orang laki pedas. Panggil perempuan sisa"

"Dah nak panggil apa?"

"Sentap la jugak siapa yang makan cili kalau dengar"

"Dekat situ mana ada siapa yang makan cili. Yang nak jilat ludah sendiri je ada"

"Yek! Abangg! Eee geli la"

"Dengan kahak sekali haha"

"Abang!"

"Hijau pulak tu. Ada lendir-lendir"

"Tak nak dengar. Geliii"

"Hahaha tu pun geli"

Mimpi seksi

"Kembar dah tidur. Ara macam mana? Badan panas lagi?"

"Ara takut"

"Kan abang ada. Nak takut apa?"

"Ara minta maaf. Ara mmm…"

"Tak payah fikir"

"Berdosanya Ara dengan abang.…"

"Laa menangis pulak"

"Ara malu dengan abang…".

"Jangan menangis. Tidur eh"

"Abang jangan tinggal. Ara takut"

"Pejam mata. 10, 9. 8. 7. 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1. Tidur lena. Mimpi abang seksi haha"

"Eee abang ni kan, saja"

"Hahaha"

Hmm

Ara demam. Anak pula merengek.

Pantang lelaki makan sisa

"Aku nak Ara!"

"Nak apa cari Ara?"

"Mana Ara? Keluar!"

"Aku ni manusia paling simple. Kalau aku sayang separuh mati, tapi perempuan tak pilih aku, aku blah. Aku bagi free je. Lantak dia lah nak ikut jantan mana pun. Pantang lelaki makan sisa, tapi…"

"Pergi mati la bodoh!"

"Aku belum habis cakap. Tapi, kalau perempuan pilih aku, nyawa pun aku sanggup bagi. Jangan buat masalah sini. Blah"

"Kalau aku tak dapat, kau takkan dapat, bro. Jangan berlagak, ada cara halus. Kau tunggu, kau tengok"

"Kalau bernyawa"

"Kau macam tak tahu siapa aku. Aku punya connection, reputasi, jangan main-main"

"Terima kenyataan dah orang tak nak. Balik je la. Tak malu ke nak jilat ludah sendiri? Dulu tak nak jaga elok-elok"

"Aku ada geng aku sendiri. Jangan ingat kau boleh lepas"

"Dah habis getak? Berambus!"

"Sial!"

Hujan lebat

Hujan lebat di Janda Baik.

Ara menang

"Ara"

"…"

"Sayang"

"Apa sayang-sayang?"

"Gengster"

"Baru tau ke?"

"Esok nak ikut abang tak?"

"Tak"

"Bonda, Baba, Nenda ikut. Takkan Ara tak nak ikut?"

"Tak nak"

"Betul?"

"Kenapa abang buat Ara macam ni?"

"Abang buat apa?"

"Kenapa abang pergi Kajang?"

"Abang pergi beli sate. Abang tak tahu pun ada cawangan kalau Ara tak cakap"

"Eleh"

"Boleh tak jangan buat perangai?"

"…"

"Macam ni nak suruh abang kawin dua?"

"Abang jangan nak red herring eh"

"Betul apa abang cakap"

"Abang tetap salah"

"Okey, Ara menang"

"Maksudnya betul la abang pergi Kajang sebab…"

"Abang cakap tak, tak la"

"Ara tak percaya"

"Senang je nak tahu. Kalau abang dah tak balik rumah, betul sangkaan Ara tu"

"Abang, jangan la"

"Dah nak sangat"

"Sorry la. Kita jealous je"

"Abang ajak ikut. Ara yang tak nak"

Keep smiling

It has been a long flight from Los Angeles to Singapore. I slept so soundly, and just a few minutes before waking up, I dreamt about you. In the dream, you were giving a review about a product that came in a small box. You were smiling, the same smile that I always long for. This is the sixth time I have dreamt about you.

I feel relaxed, happy, and I don't know how to describe it.

Keep smiling, sayang.

Kura-kura tanya

"Dah agak mesti pergi Kajang"

"Beli sate je. Lepas tu cari cakoi. Lupa pasar malam tu hari Sabtu"

"Cawangan lain banyak. Kajang juga nak"

"Kenapa ni?"

"Kura-kura tanya"

"Ye la. Lepas ni tak pergi dah…hmm"

"Tahu pun"

"Insecure sangat"

"…"

"Tarik muka"

"Arghhhhh!"

"Dah kenapa tiba jadi singa. Pasal sate je gaduh. Lepas ni abang tak beli dah sate Kajang tu"

"Jangan pergi Kajang. Janji"

"Janji tak boleh"

"Tengok tu"

"Macam la abang tahu sangat tempat dekat Kajang tu"

"Eleh"

Kajang

"Abang nak keluar kejab"

"Pergi Kajang?"

"Taklah. Ada kerja sikit"

"Kerja apa?"

"Ada la kerja abang"

"Cakap la"

"Balik KL mula la"

"Tiba lesap pergi Kajang"

"Tak. Jom ikut"

"Tak nak"

"Tak nak pulak"

"Pergi memana update tau. Nak tau location"

"Amboi"

"Tau"

"Tak kuasa abang"

"Merajuk la"

"Jangan buat perangai. Malu dekat Nenda"

"Biar la"

"Ara"

"Update location"

"Ye"

Can I get your number

"Hello there. Are you the one who helped me?"

"Sorry?"

"In Panama, remember? I was drunk after the party that night"

"Ah, yes"

"What brings you here?"

"I'm from Kuala Lumpur, so I'm heading back to my hometown"

"I see. Wanna grab some breakfast together if you're down?"

"Sorry, I'm in a rush"

"Alright, no worries. Can I get your number then?"

"Maybe next time"

"When's that gonna be?"

"I'm married. It's not a good idea to exchange phone numbers"

"I appreciate your honesty, but I still want your number"

"Hmm... If we happen to meet again, I will give it to you. Deal?"

"Deal"

"Alright. You take care"

"See you"

Changi Airport, Singapore

Malam tadi

"Last, last"

"Abang nak tidur dah"

"Kejab je, please"

"Mana?"

"Cantik tak?"

"Ara tahu tak, haram lelaki pandang perempuan lain. Nanti hilang kemanisan bila dia pandang isteri dia"

"Tahu"

"Habis tu?"

"Pandang bakal isteri Allah izinkan"

"Menjawab, menjawab"

"Siapa suruh abang ajar kita ilmu agama astu marah. Asyik kena marah aje hari ni"

"Hmm...nak tunjuk apa?"

"Cantik tak?"

"Model ke?"

"Mana abang tahu?"

"Dah, tidur"

"Cantik takkk?"

"Ara cantik lagi"

"Abang suka tak?"

"Tidur"

"Abang, bagi la balik handphone kita"

"Tidur"

"Bagi la"

"Tidur"

"Tak nak"

"Tidur"

"Mmm…abang…"

"Hmm"

"Remuk tulang kita"

"Shhh"

"Abang…"

"Shhh"

Satu nama

Aku punya rindu untuk satu nama. Nama itu aku sematkan dalam lubuk hatiku paling dalam. Nama itu tidak dapat di hapus siapapun. Kecuali Dia sendiri yang menghapusnya. Begitupun dengan rasa cintaku. Tidak akan pernah hilang. Kecuali Dia yang menyuruhku pergi dari hati dan hidupnya.

Your writing

I miss reading your writing. You always write very well, better than I do. I deeply regret losing our blog that we used to write together.

Blessing

Laa ilaha illallah.

I just woke up, and guess what? I had a dream about you again, and it's the fifth time in a short period. In the dream, you were in a car with your husband, both of you laughing and exuding happiness. It was clear to see how joyful and content you are with him. You were once a blessing to me, and now you have become his blessing. Seeing how happy and adore he is to have you in his arms, I won't do anything to disrupt your blissful marriage. You truly deserve the happiness you have found.

Cemburu

"Abang nak tengok IG buah hati abang eh?"

"Tak"

"Ye ke?"

"Ye"

"Tengok je la. Nak tak?"

"Tak nak"

"Kenapa?"

"Tak ada apa"

"Be honest, please"

"Takut cemburu"

"Mmm…sedihnya…"

"Cemburu benda paling bahaya kalau ada dalam hati manusia. Abang tahu hati abang tak kuat. Nanti abang sedih, dengki. Semua benda jahat datang, abang tak nak buat benda jahat dekat orang. Jadi, baik jangan tengok"

"Sorry abang"

"Cemburu boleh buat kita jadi tak waras. Abang dah pernah rasa. Tak nak dah. Dah tutup buku. Orang dah benci, terima je la. Hati tak boleh paksa. Kita manusia. Jangan buka ruang untuk syaitan hasut"

"Beratnya beban abang…"

Tanya kura-kura

"Cuba la tengok"

"Tak reti putus asa"

"Usaha tangga kejayaan hihi"

"Macam mana nak guna pun abang tak tahu"

"Ala scroll je"

"Baik abang scroll orang lain"

"Nak scroll siapa?"

"Tak ada siapa haha"

"Nak kita buka? Apa nama orang tu?"

"Gurau je la"

"Eleh. Cakap je la nak stalk buah hati. Macam kita jealous"

"Pandai je buat andaian"

"Cakap la apa nama dia?"

"Siapa?"

"Kura-kura tanya"

"Tanya la kura-kura"

Invaluable

You may not possess conventional beauty, but for over two decades, you have captured my heart. Whenever I encounter another woman, I find myself comparing her to you, and you always come out on top. Although fate has not brought us together, I am content with that. As long as you reside in my heart, I experience a serene and inexplicable happiness. You hold a unique and enduring place in my life.

Take care, love. You are so invaluable to me and my entire world.

Poligami

"Buat apa baju abang masuk dalam beg Ara?"

"Kita ada special dinner"

"Dengan siapa?"

"Kawan Ara"

"Tak habis lagi?"

"Ara dah janji"

"Siapa suruh janji tak tanya abang?"

"Ala sorry"

"Abang tak nak. Ara tolong la berhenti. Boleh tak hormat keputusan abang?"

"Mmm…"

"Abang tahu niat Ara baik tapi abang tak boleh. Abang tak mampu. Abang tak bersedia. Abang rasa Ara nak buang abang. Ara marah abang tegur pasal dapur?"

"Tak la"

"Habis tu?"

"Sorry…"

"Kalau Ara nak buang abang sangat, Ara cakap. Jangan buat macam ni. Abang tak suka"

"Sorry…"

"Ara rasa abang akan sentiasa sayang Ara lebih. Kalau nanti abang sayang nombor dua lebih macam mana? Ara boleh tahan? Tak cemburu? Material mungkin abang boleh adil tapi hati? Jangan minta benda yang kita tak tahu. Poligami tak seindah yang Ara bayangkan. Banyak pahit dari manis. Abang takut Allah uji hati abang pada Ara. Kalau Ara rasa abang tak sayang Ara, abang tak tahu nak buat apa lagi untuk buktikan"

"Ara percaya abang"

Durian

"Tak ada plan nak pergi mana. Balik nak makan durian"

"Aii sedapnya!"

"Isi dah frozen. Banyak jugak bekas"

"Fresh la"

"Abang tanam 2014 masa hati pecah berderai-derai haha"

"Pecah banyak tu"

"Anak kita tak payah beli durian. Abang dah tanam. Jimat duit"

"Untung anak-anak. Semua abang dah sediakan"

"Walid ada dusun tapi abang tak pergi tengok. Nanti nak ganti pagar"

"You have to move on. It's not your fault at all"

20.09.2023

Kalau kita bahagiakan orang, Allah bahagiakan kita

"Ara dah tak nak abang?"

"Gila tak nak"

"Habis tu? Me time tak cukup? Abang tak kisah Ara nak me time berapa hari pun. Bagitahu je"

"Allah cakap, kalau nak memberi, beri yang paling kita sayang"

"Bagi la orang lain"

"Abang yang paling ideal. Ara tahu buruk baik abang. Ara yakin dengan abang. Abang dah terbukti boleh memimpin"

"Abang tak mampu"

"Dia teringin sangat nak anak. Abang, please. She's been hitched for 3 years, but things went south 'cause her hubby was cheating on her"

"Hmm"

"Abang, please"

"Dia macam Islamik je kan"

"Tak la. Dia okey je"

"Dia yang ada kawan baik laki tu kan?"

"Ha'a"

"Ara tahu kan abang tak suka perempuan ada kawan baik lelaki?"

"Tahu tapi"

"Never date a woman who have a male bestie. Abang belajar dari pengalaman lepas"

"Abang, please"

"Kalau tak ada bestie dia tu, boleh consider lagi"

"Please"

"Nanti abang panggil dia sayang, Ara jealous pulak"

"Nampak tak jantan?. Tak nak la, male bestie la, tapi nak panggil sayang siap"

"Kita pulak kena marah"

"Entahlah bang. Ara ikhlas. Tak tahu dari mana datang kekuatan. Dia teringin sangat nak anak dari rahim dia. Orang laki takkan faham. Ara dah fikir masak-masak, Ara ikhlas demi Allah. Kalau kita bahagiakan orang, Allah bahagiakan kita. Kalau abang setuju, Ara minta izin nak meminang dia"

"Cukup Ara dalam hidup abang"

Sweet

"Video apa tu?"

"Influencer pujuk wife dia. Terharu dapat hadiah birthday"

"Influencer apa benda. Sebut r pun pelat. Kelakar je bunyi. Mesti tak handsome hahaha"

"Tak baik abang ni"

"Yang handsome tak minat buat video. Yelah, dia dah handsome kan. Tak payah try hard sangat tunjuk dia paling romantik hahaha"

"Suka dia mengata orang"

"Belum tentu yang sweet depan kamera, belakang kamera pun sama. Biasanya yang suka tunjuk dekat orang, depan je sweet"

"Ha'a tapi abang tak sweet langsung. Bekeng sokmo hihihi"

"Eh"

Tomyam

"Baru je habis kerja pukul 7 tadi"

"Tak tidur la ye?"

"Tak. Lepas sarapan cadang rehat"

"Malam makan apa?"

"Kebab"

"Busy eh?"

"Kejar date line. Kos dah lari banyak dari 4 jadi 10"

"Kenapa jadi macam tu?"

"Pekerja tak ikut arahan. Ara dah makan? Anak-anak macam mana?"

"Dah. Tomyam putih"

"Sedapnya"

"Anak-anak okey, semua dah tidur"

"Okey. Ala sedapnya tomyam"

"Ara masak abang pun sedap hihi"

"Mengada"

Panggilan telefon

Kinabalu

"Tinggi-tinggi Gunung Kinabalu. Tinggi lagi sayang sama kamu"

"Happy nampak"

"Happyyyy"

"Apa sal happy?"

"Biar la kita nak happy. Happy pun tanya"

"Hihihi"

"Job masuk banyak tapi abang macam letih sebab Ara buat abang letih hahahahahaha"

"Haip!"

Cuba sesuatu yang baru

"Kita balik KL Jumaat tapi bukan flight biasa. Turun Singapore"

"Bangkok la bang. Kita naik tren pergi KL or kita stop Penang ambil flight balik KL"

"Tak nak la. Kena tukar tren"

"Ala boleh la"

"Penat kembar nanti. Tren Siam tak selesa. Dahlah kita ni ramai"

"Nak cuba sesuatu yang baru"

"Abang nak cepat sampai"

"Alaaa"

"Nak balik Hartamas ke tak?"

"Please"

"Bangkok-Penang tapi flight, boleh?"

"Tren"

"Tak ada tren-tren"

"Alaa tak boleh ke?"

"Penat"

"Of course penat. Es un viaje, no un destino hihihi"

"Ara bayar tiket"

"Okey!"

"Makan"

"Okey!"

"Ara urus semua"

"Alaaa"

"Abang tahu settle"

"Alaaa"

"Nak naik tren kan?"

"Alaaa bang"

"Ara nak, Ara buat"

"Alaaa"

"Tiket dewasa 5. Jangan lupa pulak"

"Abang hihihi cancel la"

"Kata nak cuba sesuatu yang baru"

"Nanti la. Tiba rasa nak pitam hihi"

Mengata orang

"Ara je tak tahu. Ramai lelaki tak pilih cantik"

"Ye ke?"

"Cantik tu bonus. Lelaki pilih perempuan yang pandai cari duit plus independent sebab dia boleh tumpang senang dan tak menyusahkan dia"

"Oo"

"Laki yang kawin kali kedua, dia tak pilih cantik dah. Dia belajar dari kesilapan. Cantik tapi zero tak guna juga. Tak datangkan hasil. Laki pun nak benefit dari perempuan jugak "

"On point! Setengah laki tak cermin diri. Tak sedar diri nak tackle perempuan high class. Gaji dia tu, gincu kita tak tentu mampu beli"

"Nak macam-macam, diri sendiri pun tak macam orang. Nak bini slim, dia pun buncit tak bersenam. Nak bini muka licin, jambang pun dia malas trim. Muka malas cuci. Nak bini wangi, duit tak bagi, dia pun malas ke spa. Habis macam mana. Perempuan mesti la nak laki ada duit. Nak pisau harga seribu, satu krim muka pun dekat dua ribu"

"Amboi dia. Bagi contoh terdekat je"

"Hahaha"

Madu

"Abang, kalau abang nak kawin lagi cakap tau"

"Kenapa?"

"Ara nak pilih yang ngam dengan Ara hihi"

…

"Abang, kawan abang tahu tak Ara tak pandai kemas?"

"Tak"

"Sib baik"

"Kenapa?"

"Saja tanya. Malu la kalau tahu"

"Abang tak suka cerita hal personal plus tak nak jadi alasan member suruh kawin lain"

"Eh"

…

"Abang, kalau abang nak madukan kita kan, abang nak yang umur berapa?"

"Tak minat muda"

"Sebab?"

"Penat nak layan kerenah dia"

…

"Abang, kalau…"

"Madu lagi?"

"Hihi"

"Abang tak boleh kawin lain"

"Sebab?"

"Bukan senang nak dapat macam Ara. Kereta rosak tepi jalan pandai settle sendiri, tayar pancit pandai tukar. Susah nak cari sama level. Buat nanti semua abang kena buat, mati abang"

"Hihihi"

"Perempuan lain nak tunggu suami sampai baru settle. Tak pandai buat apa. Letih jugak"

Dum spiro, spero

Thank you

I love you despite your flaws, and I still love you even though you have many weaknesses. Thank you for preparing meals for me and our kids. The food is absolutely delicious, and I truly appreciate the effort you put into it.

Kekemasan

Hari ini Ara masuk dapur seperti biasa. Tetap memasak. Selesai masak, Ara kemaskan dapur, cuci dan bersihkan semua peralatan (walaupun ada yang tertinggal, mungkin terlupa atau terlepas pandang). Sekurang-kurangnya ada perubahan walaupun tak banyak kerana belum mencapai piawaian dari segi standard kebersihan dan kekemasan.

…

"Dekat sinki melekit. Bawah meja melekit. Atas meja melekit. Ara kalau tak nak kemas, jangan masak. Baru je abang mop dah kotor"

"Ara dah cakap nak mop. Kenapa abang mop?"

"Dua jam dah. Tak mop pun"

"Siap masak Ara mop'

"Benda tumpah, letak sabun, mop. Apa yang susah sangat"

"Yang abang nak marah-marah kenapa?"

"Abang baru je mop semalam. Tak sampai 24 jam dah kotor. Abang pun letih jugak. Takkan asyik nak bersih dapur"

"Pasal benda tumpah nak marah"

"Lepas ni jangan masak. Tahun depan Ara pergi kerja. Tak payah duduk rumah. Orang dah cakap tak payah masak, nak massk. Dah masak, tak nak kemas. Berselerak sana sini. Nak makan pun hilang selera"

"……"

"Dah tahu abang tak suka, buat jugak"

",……"

"Ara masak lagi sekali, semua benda abang buang luar. Faham tak?"

"Faham"

"Awal pagi dah buat mood spoil. Apa benda la. Pergi masuk. Tak payah kemas. Tinggal je"

"Mmm…"

A note to my daughter

Everything is hard in the beginning. Someone told me to take one step at a time. Nothing worth having comes easily. Be patient, work hard, stay focused, and you will be successful. Don't put too much pressure on yourself. It's okay to cry, but hold on to your dreams. Don't give up. When you give up, everything stops working.

You have done your best, and I am so proud of you.

Daddy

Don't give up

Adam: Daddy! Daddy! Kakak menangis dalam bilik air

Daddy: Kenapa?

Adam: Tak tahu

…

Daddy: Everything alright?

Kakak: Nope

Daddy: Apa yang tak kena?

Kakak: Daddy, kenapa semua susah?

Daddy: Semua benda susah tapi lama-lama jadi senang. Usaha tangga kejayaan

Kakak: I feel like I'm the dumbest person in the world

Daddy: Semua orang pernah rasa macam tu. Kakak bukan yang pertama, Kakak jugak bukan yang terakhir

Kakak: …

Daddy: Dah, mandi. Jangan menangis dalam bilik air, syaitan suka

Kakak: Okey, daddy

Daddy: Lepas mandi, kalau nak tidur, ambil wuduk lepas tu solat. Jangan tidur waktu kita sedih, nanti syaitan datang peluk

Kakak: Jangan la daddy. Kakak takut

Daddy: Dry your tears. Kita boleh down tapi jangan lama-lama

Kakak: Stres!

Daddy: Hidup ni memang macam tu. Kita kena naik satu takah demi satu takah. Kita akan rasa luka, sakit, pedih, malu, gembira, seronok, rasa bodoh, rasa pandai, rasa nak gila, putus asa, tak jadi putus asa. Semua ada. Yang penting kita teruskan. Jangan give up

Kakak: I do my best, but...

Daddy: Cuba lagi. Thomas Elva Edision cuba 1,000 kali sebelum dapat nyalakan lampu. Kalau dia cepat give up, bergelap dunia kita hari ni

Independencia de Costa Rica

My family and I had a wonderful day observing the Costa Rican Independence Day celebrations on September 15, 2023. Being foreigners living here, we gained valuable insights into the culture, music, and traditions associated with this special occasion. The locals were dressed in their traditional attire, with women wearing elegant white colonial-style dresses, while men sported traditional cowboy outfits. It was truly a memorable experience for all of us.

One of the most fascinating traditions we learned about was the Torch Parade (Desfile de Antorchas). Costa Ricans enthusiastically participate in this event by carrying lit torches and marching through the streets. This symbolic act represents the flame of independence that was ignited in 1821. It was truly captivating to witness the passion and unity displayed by the participants as they commemorated this historic occasion.

Día de la Independencia de 🇨🇷! 

Dulang emas

"Beli lagi?"

"Abang jalan-jalan dekat tempat besi buruk. Nampak macam cantik lagi"

"Tak"

"Cantik la"

"Tak"

"Ara tak suka?"

"Sakit mata"

"Ara tak pandai kemas, sampah penuh kereta, bilik kerja sepah, abang tutup mata. Ara pun sila pejam mata. Lagipun barang abang tak sepah macam barang Ara. Elok je tersusun dalam stor"

"Jangan peluk kita malam ni"

"Hahahaha"

…

"Abang tak lahir macam orang lain. Lahir je ada 200, 300 ribu dalam bank. Mak ayah sediakan"

"Abang"

"Ara malu ke?""

"Tak"

"One man's trash is another man's treasure. Anggap je la abang garbage collector. Bukannya abang kisah pun hahaha"

"Pasu pecah nak buat apa?"

"Letak bunga Nak spray balik"

"Buat cantik-cantik tau"

"Hidup ni jangan lupa asal usul. Abang la bukan Ara haha. Ara lahir je atas dulang emas dah. Mana tahu benda-benda ni"

"You know how to cherish every single thing, innit?"

"Yelah. Jumpa skru satu pun abang simpan"

Nothing is truly trash

I have a habit that my wife doesn't particularly appreciate. I enjoy collecting discarded items, such as electronics, appliances, engines, and even old, neglected cars. I bring them to my garage and take pleasure in restoring them. I firmly believe that nothing is truly trash, as many items can be repaired and put to good use once again. However, my wife refers to my collection as mere garbage, while I view it as a valuable assortment of treasures.

Just a little

I checked my email even though I knew there was no email from you. The last email you replied to was two or three years ago. It's been a long time.

How is your life going? Is everything alright? Did he take good care of you? I hope everything went well. If not, fix what is broken.

PS: I miss you, not really that much, just a little.

Curang

"Kita dua-dua tempuh benda yang sama"

"Curang tak boleh di maafkan. Sampai mati Ara benci!"

"Bukan curang, Allah yang bolak-balikkan hati. Allah uji dia, Allah uji kita. Semua Allah uji. Kenapa dia buat, apa reaksi kita. Kalau Allah tak izinkan, tak jadi semua tu"

"Tapi curang tu pilihan, abang. Bukan Allah tetapkan"

"Semua benda atas muka bumi ni bergerak atas kehendak Allah. Allah yang rancang untuk kita. Kita cuma jalani apa yang telah tertulis. Dah takdir kita rasa semua tu"

"Curang tetap pilihan!"

"Ara nak lawan takdir Allah?"

"Tak, tapi hati Ara sakit sangat"

"Hati abang pun"

"Apa dosa Ara, abang?"

"Kan Allah uji orang yang Dia sayang sebab Allah nak bagi pahala sabar"

"Sakit sangat abang…"

"Sakit sebab Ara tak lepaskan. Ara dendam. Lepaslah, nanti hati jadi tenang"

"Susah"

"Redha dengan apa yang Allah uji kita. Itulah yang paling berat tapi kita kena buat. Pujuk hati Ara"

"Mmm…"

"Allah uji Ara, Ara benci. Ara tak ingat tapi abang, selepas semua terjadi, tetap sayang, tetap ingat, tetap rindu, tetap memaafkan, tetap ingat yang baik-baik. Siapa lagi berat ujian? Abang ke Ara?"

"Abang"

"Tapi abang tak pilih benci. Benci tak bawa kita ke mana pun. Benci memudaratkan hati kita. Jangan sebab satu kesalahan, kita lupa semua perkara baik dia buat untuk kita. Kita manusia, kita pun buat salah"

"Tapi dia buat kesalahan besar"

"Sebab dia curang, Allah temukan kita, kan? Kalau tak, kita pun tak kenal"

"Mmm…"

"Betul tak? Ara pun tak duduk Costa Rica, tak bela itik, tak petik sayur, tak sauk ikan, tak sedut madu, tak lahirkan 4 anak kembar"

"Entah"

"Hati perempuan memang keras macam batu"

"Tahu tak apa"

"Demikianlah perempuan, ia hanya ingat kekejaman orang kepada dirinya walau pun kecil dan ia lupa kekejamannya sendiri pada orang lain padahal begitu besarnya"

"Tolong sikit. Kita setia. Dia yang main kayu 3,4,5"

"Abang baca quote Hamka je. Jangan la marah"

"Nak tidur luar ke?"

"Hahaha ugut pulak"

Marah

"Benda apa yang buat abang marah sangat?"

"Kenapa?"

"Just a simple, casual question"

"Ara rasa?"

"Doktor curang?"

"Ara jangan guna perkataan tu next time"

"Sorry"

"Guna perkataan lain"

"Realiti abang"

"Tahu, tapi jangan sebut depan abang"

"Kenapa tak boleh? It's a fact"

"Ye. Sebab abang tak suka Ara gandingkan nama dia dengan perkataan curang. It breaks my heart when I hear someone call her that way"

"Then?"

"Tak ada apa"

"Cakap la kenapa"

"Lupa nak cakap apa"

"Jawab dulu"

"Aiman"

"Dia dah meninggal kan?"

"Haah"

"Dia buat apa?"

"He said, he saw her sleeping with a man in a hotel room"

"Jahatnya mulut"

"Masa tu abang sakit. Macam-macam la dia cakap"

"Abang buat apa dekat dia?"

"Ara kata nak try kopi baru. Bancuh la. Nak rasa"

"Ubah topik"

"Mana ada"

"Cakap la, abang buat apa"

"Tak buat apa"

"Ara tak percaya"

"Tak percaya sudah"

"Betul-betul la"

"Bancuh kopi cepat"

"Cakap dulu"

"Cakap apa?"

"Dia meninggal sebab accident kan?"

"Haah"

"Betul ke accident?"

"Entah"

"Abang, cepat la"

"Apa?"

"Aiman tu"

"Kenapa?"

"Abang buat apa?"

"Tak buat apa"

Ice cream

"Kenapa tak buat?"

"You didn't need a psychiatrist. You don't need medication. You just need me hihi"

"Abang jadi rimau nanti merajuk"

"Kita jadi singa hihi"

"Boleh buat main pulak"

"Abang, jom cari ice cream"

"Kan dah makan hari tu"

"Nak lagi hihi boleh la"

Hujan

"Abang…"

Hmm"

"Baby…"

"Kenapa?"

"Sejuk. Hujan"

"Tutup aircond"

"Tak nak"

"Selimut sampai kepala"

"Tak nak"

"Pakai stokin"

"Tak nak"

"Nak apa?"

"Tak nak apa"

"Tapi masuk dalam baju abang"

"Hihi"

Kacau

*tepuk bahu* "Abanggg"

"Apa?"

"Abang dengar lagu apa? Nak dengar"

"Baru nak layan. Kacau je"

"Ala"

"Hah dengar"

"Sakit telinga. Tak pekak ke telinga abang?"

"Tak. Ni baru muzik. Ara apa tahu"

"Lagu macam panggil cetan je"

"Hey!"

"Hihihi"

Bersepah

"Ara, abang nak cakap sikit"

"Ada apa abang?"

"Lepas ni Ara tak payah kemas rumah. Maid ada biar maid buat semua"

"Kenapa pulak?"

"Abang tahu Ara tak pandai buat kerja rumah. Tak payah buat benda Ara tak pandai buat. Buat letih je. Habis tenaga"

"Ala"

"Ara kemas ke tak sama je. Abang tak tahu apa yang Ara kemas. Bukan abang tak sokong tapi buang masa. Baik Ara buat benda lain"

"Mmm…"

"Abang dah sediakan maid sebab abang tahu. Ara jangan kecil hati. Abang bukan tak hargai usaha Ara. Tak payahlah jadi macam bini orang lain kalau dah tak reti"

"Mmm…"

"Abang tengok Ara penat sangat"

"Memang penat pun"

"Ara jaga kembar je, okey?. Kembar dah besar nanti, kalau nak kerja, kerja la balik"

"Abang tak suka Ara duduk rumah ke?"

"Ara ada banyak kelebihan lain. Buat apa nak tumpu benda tak pandai buat. Benda tu orang lain boleh buatkan"

"Ara cuba jadi macam isteri orang lain"

"Bab masak ni serba salah nak cakap. Abang tahu Ara suka masak. Ara masak sedap. Semua sedap, tapi, Ara jangan la keluarkan semua barang dalam kabinet lambakkan dekat dapur sampai ke meja makan. Bersepah semua barang. Abang stres tengok dapur sepah. Abang tak larat kemas. Segan tiap kali tengok Ryzal kemaskan"

"Mmm…"

"Abang dah label semua barang. Abang dah buat manual dalam kabinet A ada apa. Kabinet B ada apa. Sepah memang tetap sepah tapi kurang sikit kot bila buat macam tu"

"Tak boleh masak dah ke lepas ni?"

"Boleh cuma jangan sepahkan sangat. Abang belum masuk dapur dah jumpa sup bunjut atas meja macam mana"

"Ara minta maaf. Ara tahu kekurangan Ara"

"Abang bukan cakap pasal kekurangan Ara. Abang dah tutup mata sebab tu abang sediakan maid kerja ikut syif"

"Mmm…"

"Sama jugak dengan baju. Ara tak payah buat. Biar abang buat. Baju Ara pun"

"Ara tak pernah cuci pakaian abang sejak kita kawin. Abang tak suka Ara buat, kan?"

"Abang tak nak susahkan Ara bukannya tak suka"

"Ara iron, lepas tu abang iron semula"

"Ara pun tahu abang macam mana kan. Sebab tu abang cakap Ara tak payah buat"

"Mmm…"

"Bilik kita ni kalau abang outstation, Ara panggil maid kemas. Kan senang. Tak payah pening. Yang penting semua benda dalam rumah ni kemas, teratur, selesa, bersih. Siapa buat tak kisah"

"Okey"

"Pakaian abang dengan Ara je maid tak boleh sentuh. Tu je kita buat sendiri. Biar naik gunung kalau abang outstation, jangan panggil maid basuh"

"Melimpah atas lantai"

"Ye la dah tak cuci"

"Kalau Ara cuci ada je tak kena"

"Dah cuci tak ikut prosedur. Lepas ni tak payah buat apa dah"

"Alhamdulillah. Terima kasih abang. Nak salam hihi"

"Nak buat apa pulak?"

"Cepat la"

"Macan raya je"

"Ara minta maaf. Terima kasih sebab jadi suami yang bahagiakan Ara"

*mata berkaca*

"Abang jangan la nangis"

"Mana ada nangis. Mata masuk habuk"

*peluk* "Panjang betul abang bebel hari ni hihi"

Sihir

"Kesian kawan Ara kena sihir"

"Sihir apa? Cenuai?"

"Ha'a. Mana abang tahu?"

"Geng Ara kan semua lawa-lawa. Tak lawa tak di terima masuk geng"

"Takk. Pandai je"

"Dah bawa berubat?"

"Dah tapi tak okey"

"Susah nak hilang"

"Tu la. Kesian dia"

"Abang pernah kena 5 kali. Serik dah rasa. Kawan abang sampai sekarang tak sihat. Dengar cerita dah ambil barang"

"Bila abang kena? Tak pernah cerita pun"

"Lama dah. 5 kali dengan 5 orang berbeza"

"Termasuk buah hati abang?"

"Dia city girl macam Ara. Mana reti nak cenuaikan orang"

"Confident je abang"

"Betul la"

"Macam mana abang tahu"

"Tahu la"

"Asyik backing je. Menyampah kita"

"Kalau cenuai kita teringat tapi tak rasa sayang. Otak kita paksa ingat tapi hati tak rasa rindu. Senang cerita ingat tanpa rasa apa-apa. 24 jam tanpa henti"

"Abang berubat dekat mana?"

"Perak. Ada kawan bawa"

"Ingat lagi tempat tu?"

"Lupa dah. Nanti tanya kawan. Dia bomoh seluruh Malaysia sampai Siam kenal"

'Dahsyat"

"Minyak cenuai tu hidup. Tak boleh bawa masuk rumah. Nanti kena panah petir. Lepas ambil wajib kena pulangkan kalau tak makan tuan"

"Abang pernah tengok ke?"

"Pernah. Kawan tunjuk. Rumah bomoh tu tengah hutan. Nak pergi jauh siap naik bot. Kena sampai sebelum Asar. Keluar sebelum Maghrib. Macam tu la. Lupa dah"

"Mana abang tahu?"

"Dia cerita la. Abang tak pernah pergi"

"Dia cenuaikan siapa?"

"Bini dia sekarang. Nak expired kena pergi renew. Satu kerja pulak"

"Bini dia tak tahu ke?"

"Mesti la tak tahu. Ara pun. Cenuai bukan setakat minyak. Ada setengah tu kita tengok terus teringat. Jenis guna pemanis muka. Ada yang jampi dekat gambar. Guna asap rokok pun ada. Banyak cara"

"Tak tahu pun"

"Nasib abang kena dulu tak jadi sayang. Kalau tak, parah"

"Takut la"

Words

Choose your words wisely, for you never know how often they echo in someone's thoughts.

Pensil

"Abang, ada pensil tak?"

"Ada"

"Nak pinjam"

"Dalam seluar hahaha"

"Baik cakap dalam spenda terus arrrghhhh"

"Hahaha"

Nama pun jantan

"I love you"

"Nak tertidur la tu"

"Abang kira bintang. Ara kira degup jantung abang"

"Abang tengok langit je"

"Susah kan abang nak lupa. Tak ada ubat"

"I will always choose the person who chooses me"

"I wish I could make everything okay for you"

"Etiam sanato vulnere cicatrix manet"

"Apa tu?"

"Bahasa pelik hahaha"

"Ngada"

"Hahaha"

"Abang, tangan jangan merayap"

"Hahaha"

"Abang! Jangan laaa"

"Apa?"

"Tangan tu"

"Apa?"

"Orang dah mengantuk"

"Awal lagi"

"Abang!"

"Hehehe"

"Jantan kan. Tangan dah merayap mana kira lama ke baru. Lupa semua"

"Nama pun jantan"

"Abang...alaa"

"Apa?"

"Tak nak, tak nak"

"Abang nak hahaha"

"Orang ngantuk"

"Tidur je la"

"Abang tu"

"Biar la abang nak buat apa pun haha"

"Abangg"

"Shhhh habis sampai gunung dengar"

"Biar semua dengar"

"Betapa hebat cinta kita eh hahaha"

"Abangggg"

"Dia kacau kita tidur tak apa. Nak ais krim la apa la. Ni nak bagi ais krim semua perisa tak nak pulak"

"Ala ungkit. Tak nak kawan"

"Hahaha"

Berkorban bukan untuk di hargai

"Ara buat appointment. Abang nak jumpa psikiatri hari Selasa"

"Teruk sangat ke?"

"Haah. Takut ganggu kerja"

"You don't need all that. You just need to contact her, express your feelings and see how it goes"

"Merepek je la Ara ni"

"Abang tunggu dia, kan?"

"Tak. Dah Ara. Jumpa psikiatri nanti okey la"

"Psikiatri tak ada ubat rindu. Give it a try"

"Kita tak boleh bawa masa lepas ke masa kini. Nanti semuanya hancur. Masa lalu dah hancur. Takkan sekarang nak hancur lagi. Belum tentu semua akan okey. Hidup Ara, hidup anak kita, hidup anak dia, hidup suami dia. Ramai yang akan terkesan. Cuba fikir tentang cui bono dan cui malo sebelum bercakap"

"Abang nak macam ni sampai bila?"

"Ara nak anak dia cakap mak dia curang? Abang pun tak nak suami dia rasa apa yang abang pernah rasa. Sebab tu abang cakap tak ada jalan dah. Jalan mati"

"You are the most unselfish person I have ever met, even though many people have said you are selfish"

"Abang memang selfish pun"

"Kalau abang selfish, abang tak peduli nyawa orang. Biar je la dia mati asal dia puas hati"

"Ara"

"Betul la"

"Abang yang buat keputusan. Masa tu abang tak banyak pilihan. Bagi abang, itu pilihan yang terbaik"

"Untuk apa berkorban kalau tak di hargai?"

"Kita berkorban bukan untuk di hargai"

"Mmm..."

"As long as she's safe, I never feel regrets, even if I will miss her for the rest of my life. I'm the one who made the decision. It's all on me"

Cincang

"Hari tu kawan abang tanya, tak takut ke tinggal bini. Mana tahu main laki lain"

"Abang jawab apa?"

"Kalau nak rasa kena cincang hidup-hidup buat la"

"Yang lama abang tak cincang pun. Abang sayang kita lebih eh hihi"

"Eh suka pulak dia nak kena cincang"

"Suka la. Abang sayang kita lebih hihi"

What does your heart want?

"How was your day?"

"Mengamuk hari ni. Kerja senang pun tak boleh buat"

"Dah 2,3 hari abang bad mood. Kenapa?"

"Tak ada apa"

"Masalah kerja?"

"Tak. Semua okey"

"Then?"

"Abang naik atas dulu. Nak mandi"

"Tak nak makan?"

"Nantilah. Tak ada selera. Sediakan panadol je"

"Okey"

"Abang letih. Abang naik dulu"

"Sure. Abang…"

"Ada apa?"

"It's never too late to go after what your heart wants"

Who knows

I refuse to give up. Despite us going our own ways, my love for you remains hidden, even as distance separates us. I dread the thought of you passing away without me ever knowing. You have brought vibrancy to my world, and I wish to be the one who departs first because I cannot fathom a day without you in this wonderful world.

Who knows if you too miss me in silence?

15.08.2023

Miss you from afar...

Should I stop missing you or thinking about you? It has been years, and you have forgotten about me. I should do the same, but my mind keeps reminding me of you. Calling you is not the best option because I will miss your voice. Texting you is not a good option because I'm scared I will anxiously wait for your next text. I don't have any other option except to miss you from afar or cry secretly in my room.

Gift

You are one of many gifts in my life. 

Goyang

"Amboi. Sakan la masing-masing pun"

"Ibu tak reti berhibur. Ibu duduk tepi hahaha"

"Hey!"

"Tak dapat la dengan daddy nak baca playcard. Kita goyang-goyang dengar muzik lagi best"

"Tidur lena malam ni"

"Goyang, goyang, goyang. Ibu pun goyang la. Keras je hahaha"

Familia

Our recent trip to Belize was absolutely amazing. I had the wonderful opportunity to accompany the kids on a diving excursion at Lighthouse Reef, while I personally dove into the captivating depths of The Great Blue Hole. There, I explored the vibrant coral reefs, encountered diverse marine life, and even had the chance to observe various species of sharks. In the evening, my wife and I embarked on a delightful kayaking adventure around the Blue Hole, immersing ourselves in the beauty of the surroundings. We then had a fantastic time building sandcastles with the twins on the beach. This entire experience was truly unforgettable and will forever hold a special place in our hearts. Belize far exceeded our expectations, offering even more than we had anticipated. We are already eagerly looking forward to our next visit, as there is so much more to explore and discover in this incredible destination.

Playcard boring

"Hai kembar. Ibu buat apa hari ni? Ajar playcard boring tu lagi eh hahaha"

"Tak boring okey"

"Kembar nak main, tapi Ibu asyik suruh belajar. Kembar bukan nak jadi saintis. Kita semua nak jadi billionaire je. Kejab lagi daddy tunjuk duit seluruh dunia. Baru best. Ni asyik Black, Sheep, Elephant. Tak thrilling kan"

"Duit sokmo"

"Ibu caj buka fail 9,10 ribu kita tak cakap apa pun kan hahaha"

"Abang!!!"

"Hahahaha"

Bulu

"Jangan la cakap bahasa pelik-pelik dengan abang"

"Abang yang pelik"

"Bila masa? Abang cakap simple je. Ara tu. Sampai anak semua cakap pelik sama"

"Kita berjaya hihi"

"Tak payah nak cucumber walk easy in the park bagai"

"Suka hati kita la. Tak kacau bulu abang pun hihihi"

"Bulu jangan sebut"

"Bulu sana sini hihihi"
