Pulut, santan, mulut, badan

Dulu i ada sorang kawan ni...rapat le jugak. Boleh tido dua bantal (tapi rapat2) and makan sepinggan. Baru2 ni i ada jumpa dia...

I forgot why i never made that much of an effort to keep in touch with her. Dia budak pandai...or at least she's more well read than yours truly (i pun banyak membaca tapi makalah2 yg tak bernas seperti Newsoftheworld, theonion - yeah Esah, that's where i get all my gossips from).

Well, ada orang pandai yg tak banyak bercakap...ada orang pandai ygt suka bercakap. Apa2 pun mesti nak bagi critical review...be it for topics as simple as 'napa CliffRichard tak kawin2..adakah dia gay?' I mean man man la kan...Had she originated from sekolah berasrama penuh, i bet piala debat tu mesti jatuh ke tangan dialah...judge dah tekan loceng pun mesti dia tak habis berhujah lagi. Basically she had an opinion for everything. Oh my, and was she extremely patriotic...sampai kenkadang tak bertempat. Once i made a remark that kalau dah bawa kereta kancil, janganlah isi ramai2, dah la kereta tu 'fragile', bertembung dgn pajero sah2 akan kemek. Then she said to me, 'eh! You tak boleh kata kereta nasional kita camtu! Kena ler tengok impact dia macamana..!' Well, i said relatively, kalau yg besar berlanggar dgn yg kecik, mana yg akan hancur? Weiiii! Dia tak boleh terima uols!

Satu lagi, jangan sebut pasal jews! Semua masalah kat dunia ni disebabkan oleh jews..GeorgeSoros lah, tah sapa2 lagi. Nama pelik je mesti dia kata bangsa jew..agaknya sesetengah tu nama pelik pasai mak mat saleh, bapak Jaws, nama terkeluar cam jew, habis kena kutuk org tu. OK la, i ni pun bukan le peminat jews but sometimes tu naik fed up bila ada je masalah kat dunia, mesti jews kena..

Then, masuk ke bab hati pulak. Dia takde boipren, dia tingin nak ada boipren. So, ada le org nak kenen2kan kat si polan. So i ni pun cakap la kat dia..slow2 je la...tepon2 dulu..kalau suka baru pi dating. Ni dia, bila jantan tu tepon, terus je cakap, 'i ni nak berkenalan dgn you, tapi i taknak main2 tau'. So pas tu dia heran napa jantan tu lepas tu tak call2 balik...i mean, if it were me, i would have run a mile!

Ada sekali dua tu tetiba je dia cakap kat i, 'you ni taklah putih sangat kan..cam kulit i je..' OK, in the first place, tak nah le i perasan kulit i ni putih. Pernah jugak dia cakap, 'you ni tak le tinggi benorrrr..' Bila le pulak i panggil dia si pendek? But i am at least half a head taller than her. She must have had all these arguments with me........ in her head. Satu lagi yg i tak tahan was bila bersembang and when she wanted to make a statement, mesti dia cucuk2 bahu and kenkadang tepuk2 bahu kita. Hish! Sakitla! I should have just told her what bothered me about her but biasalah i...i retreated....saying that, we did attend each other's weddings. I often wonder what she's up to nowadays. To me, she is not the type of friend i would like to be in contact on a daily basis because memerlukan kesabaran yg tinggi. But i know kalaulah i tersesat ke tempat dia, i would certainly look her up and have dinner ke apa.

Then one weekend, i was at the local mall..tetiba je ada org cakap, 'Is that you? Laaaaaaaa! You dah jadi macam i!!!' God...where have i heard that voice before? And suddenly i remembered why subconsciously i never made any effort to stay in touch with her..

*** 'You dah jadi macam i' - maksud dia ni, tembam le..We last saw each other 4 years ago and yet benda camtu yg keluar dari mulut dia dulu..
