my mother(s).

before i start the day with my out-of-hand office job, lemme tell a story about my mother, since mother's day pon is just around the corner la kan.. (eh? bukan tadi baru post lagu pasal mak dendangan yusuf islam & the kids ke? ceh. konon-konon la kau nih..).

last week, masa labour day, i started the day as early as i can sebab baju-baju kotor dah melimpah ruah dari laundry basket, disamping rasa terharu dengan kata-kata indah dari incek suami yang selalu memuji-muji betapa wanginya stokin yang dia pakai ke ofis tiap2 hari walaupon direcycle 2, 3 kali itu. haha.

luckily for me, while doing my laundry, lil zaes was well behaved, so, everything went smoothly. sampai pukul 2 jugakla baru habis membasuh. ye. sila percaya dan bayangkan berapa round washing machine itu bergelek. then, we decided to go out (incek suami nak pegi main snooker dgn incek cousin punya husband and sis#2 actually and mama pon nak pegi carik apple cider vinegar dia) jalan-jalan kat sunway pyramid.

while preparing to go out, i've already set in my mind, not to forget to angkat kain jemuran kat belakang rumah nye portion (kalau dah melimpah ruah baju dari laundry basket, masa menjemur pon, habis satu rumah depan belakang gua conquer). dah la portion kat belakang tu sume our jeans, pants & one denim jacket pelbagai brands (tapi takdela anything expensive gila).. and masa tu la pulak lil zaes kena change diapers la apa la because he just woke up from his afternoon nap. and before going out lak, prepare his milk sume.

and then off we go without realising that i've forgotten to pick up the jemuran kat belakang. and please note that the back alley kat belakang rumah gua tu bebas je orang jalan-jalan, and mind you, my kain jemuran memang within reach if ada orang nak curik ke apa ke..

after jalan-jalan kat pyramid, dah nak dekat maghrib tu, incek suami and his snooker team still tak habis main snooker lagi (sebab the one kat pyramid tak allow orang main snooker pakai bermuda. since incek suami pakai bermuda, so they moved to other snooker centre), so mama, zaes, my cousin and i pon nak balik, with the anticipation of tak sabar-sabar nak tengok one in a million 3 finale on that nite.

masa nak dekat-dekat sampai rumah, when i drove passed thru the lorong sebelah rumah, i suddenly remembered about the kain jemuran belakang rumah. i immediately screamed "alamak! baju! baju belakang rumah lupa nak angkat!!! habislaaa!!!"

everybody in the car terkejut and dah sampai depan rumah, while opening the front gate, mama asked me to walked to the back alley just to see whether baju sume ada tak but i refused sebab takkan nak tinggalkan kereta kat tengah-tengah jalan and while praying in my heart that my baju are all there, i reversed parked (ceh nak cakap gak, takleh ke tulis park je, instead of reversed parked) the car masuk porch, i quickly went out, leaving my cousin and zaes in the car, lari pegi kat dapur, and when i switched on the kitchen light, to my horror all the garments kat fence belakang rumah tu dah takde kat situ!!

i can't believe my eyes mannn.. habis all the jeans and pants and jacket that i have, hilang! my body was shaking at that time, i jumped and thumped like a little girl and almost cried! then i asked mama whether she already picked them up but she said no. i asked again sebab bila tengok muka dia nampak calm semacam je, but she said she didnt and kali ni i asked her to swear in the name of God (muahaha. gila brutal sebab dah panic sangat dah ni)

masa tu she stumbled and immediately burst into laughter..

mama: ha.. tula.. lupa semua. tu ha.. ada kat tangga tu! takkan sebelum keluar petang tadi awak tak nampak mama letak kat sofa? buta la awak ni...

i went to the stairs and saw the pile there. mau tak lega!! huih! (bole jadi gila if hilang sume tu..)

roxy: yela.. tadi petang dah ingat dah.. isk. mama ni buat orang panik je! memang buat lawak seram tol.. isk!

muahaha. tu la dia. mama gua buat lawak seriau kat anak dia yang forgetful nih. nasib baik i don't have any heart condition. seems that before we went out, mama dah angkat sume portion jemuran kat belakang rumah tu, then letak kat sofa but on the way out tu i didnt notice anything at all. so, masa balik, when i suddenly remembered about it, mama cepat-cepat angkat portion tu campak and sorok kat tangga, so that i'll became menggelabah and she could laugh about it. and yes, mama berjaya buat anak dia menggelabah gila! (patutla beriya-iya mama suruh gua pegi jalan tengok dari lorong belakang sebab dia takut tak sempat nak sorok baju-baju tu. tsk.)

and so. what i'm trying to say here is, being a mother of 4, gua memang salute habis kat mama sebab sentiasa ambil berat about her daughters and son-in-laws and grandchildren's affair eventho it is not her responsible to do so. she attends to our needs, never complaints if she has to take care of my son sampai ke malam (sebab mommey zaes ni tak siap2 keja dia sampai ke sudah) or her other granddaughters and macam-macam lagilah..

nak cakap pasal mama, sampai esok pon i won't start my outta-hand office job nih. so, to my beloved mama, i'll always love you till the end of my life, and please forgive me for my wrongdoings, be it directly or indirectly. love you, love you, love you, mama!

and not to forget, my mother in law too.

*eventho tak mungkin both mama & mak baca blog ni kan.. tapi takpe..*
