"Ini serius tak kelakar hawa"

Encik N mengulang kata kata tersebut dua tiga kali. Mungkin marah atau pun jengkel. Yang pasti Hawa hanya duduk dengan muka tidak bersalah.

"Semalam tak dapat tak apa. Okay je. Kenapa harini tak boleh?"
"Semalam tu dah dua hari aku tak dapat. Tu hari ni macam ni"
"Semalam boleh, hari ni pun boleh"

Encik N pandang muka Hawa yang sedang menghirup kuah tomyam. Tak keruan. Bukan Hawa mahu bertindak kejam, tapi itu bukan benda yang baik. Dan Hawa taknak terlibat sama. Cukuplah tadi dia terkena tempias sedikit.

"Satu je. Please"
"Nantilah, dekat keretalah"
"Satuuuuuuu je"
"Nyanyi dulu. Sampai semua orang dengar. Nyanyi dekat sini." kata Hawa sambil menuding jari ke tempat kosong disebelahnya. "Lagi senang nak bagi"

Encik N menyanyi lagu You are my sunshine. Tak terlalu kuat tak terlalu perlahan. Kalau bukan sebab surrounding noise, mungkin semua orang akan dengar. Hawa ketawa tanda puas hati, tapi tak berganjak dengan keputusannya.

"Lepas ni jom pergi I-City. Ada concert"
"Malaslah. Siapa je pun yang ada"

Taktik Hawa untuk tukar tajuk perbualan berjaya. Namun selepas itu Encik N kembali kepada topik asal. Puas bermain dengan kata kata, Hawa pun membuka beg nya lalu berkata, "Sekali ni je okay, dah jom bayar. Ayuh ke I-City"

"He told you that he has a Robin in his life?" "No, he posted it online" "Sorry girl, but bad news, you gotta give up on this one." "But, he's perfect. And I don't give want to give up on him" "If he ends up with you, he will always have someone else on his mind. What if his Robin wants to get back with him? You think he is going to stay for you?" "I don't know. Maybe I could change his mind" "Do you know the girl?" "Yes" "When did he break up with her?" "Years ago...." "Just move on, don't hurt yourself" "But then he's going to be my Robin" "Maybe he wont. Maybe he will"

Fiction: Amak's story

Testing 1,2,3, testing. Hello. Hi. Hi to all 23 of you. Thank you for coming here to be with me to send Amak to her next journey in life. Or afterlife. I don't know. I'm not sure how this works. When I asked the person in charge on what should I put in my speech, he told me that I should insert some prayers and a few anecdotes of Amak. And that is what I shall do. You see, Amak lived all her lives with people spreading rumors about her, but instead of correcting them, she ignored everything and continued living her life her own way. And that what makes her special. Amak is my mother. She did not carry me in her womb for 9 months, she did not stay awake at night during the early years of my life like all mother's do. But she saved me and gave life to me when I almost died 15 years ago. After living for 15 years with her, there are a few of my favorite memories of her that I would like to share with you. My first favorite memory is when the first time I saw Amak...

So close but yet so far.

She looks at him playing with his phone, smiling and looking happy. It is the same smile that he gave her 5 years ago. A blissful smile, a smile as if he has everything in his hands, content. But now the smile is not for her anymore, it's for someone in his phone. She finds it amazing that someone who's not virtually there can make him as happy as that but she, who's sitting in front of him cant do the same. Moments like this will usually make her feel so small, like a mice in a dark alley. But not tonight. She has finally accepted that she has lost the ability to make him jump over the moon, and does not feel like doing it anymore. But what about her? Is he still making her happy? Yes. Or maybe not. But he gives her the sense of familiarity. Sometimes, that 's all you need. It doesn't matter that she is no longer looking at the same person she fell in love with five years ago, she just wants him there. Most break ups hurt because it is hard to break a habit, no...
