Drama Minggu Ini...

Arini mmg nak tulis lain sket utk blog, nak kata my typical weekend pun tak jugak but it’s something quite close to typical…except that this particular weekend ada event sket. A ‘dinner’..and a lesson.

Date : Sept 3rd 2005; Time : 9.50pm (dinner starts at 8.00pm)

Location : Bukit Serindit Melaka; Occasion : A simple dinner for the fitness wannabe freaks, sempena Merdeka.

Estd. crowd : 180 something.

3 months ago : This lady, she has been coming down to Melaka quite regularly (at least once a forthnight) for the past 3 mths or so. She has a fren here in Melaka who coincidently join I jogging and aerobik petang2. First time tgk dia, I perasan rambut dia – teknik rebonding!. I dok perati dia lari-lari kambing kat padang sensorang, – her sports attire, sumer body huggin..grr!, infact the whole package was right. Kawan dia yg kat melaka ni tak suka jogging – dia nak aerobic and line dancing jer oOO hmm peluang baik – a new jogging partner!. They are both 26 btw. Sorang keje kat melaka, sorang lagi kat kl. So I tanya minah yg kat melaka ni. ‘hey lyn! Tu your office mate ker..?’ Dia kata ‘Tak lah, tu As, dia keje kat kl, dia dtg melaka arini sbb dah lama tak jumpa lyn’. And before I could plan my next move, she called her over and introduced me to her. I pun apa lagi, tersipu2 lah (sampai terbelit kaki), and the only perkataan yg terkuar dari mulut masa tu ‘Wow! Nice hair’. Hehe…hunter at works. Tanya keje - dia kata ‘xxx – an IT Co...’ Hmm..IT eh.

Now, 3 months later :11.30am Sept.3..my phone rang. Now kitorang dah mcm gang la. I was at Kem Tentera Sungai Udang Melaka, tgk delivery of some stuff meant for the army camp. ‘Eh As, Lyn cakap u demam, betul ker?’ Blah blah blah…. So since dia tanya wht wud I be doing over the weekend (mcm la dia tatau). I ajak la dia dtg Melaka (sbb last weekend dia dah dtg – so this weekend patut nyer dia tak datang lah..), told her ada dinner dgn group yg petang2 ada kat Bkt Srindit (tempat jogging tu). She sounds excited – blah, blah, blah. During the conversation, dia kata, ‘Zul mlm ni u pakai suar itam, baju putih jarang k’ and I tanya dia balik ‘ wht wud u be wearing..?’. Dia cakap ‘suar itam and baju putih jarang’. Dia nak I ngan dia sama…(baju jarang!! Putih plak tu…tanduk tumbuh). So I told her – dinner at 8.30pm. I tanya ‘pukul berapa u nak dtg..?’. She said ‘ right away’. Hey! it’s only 11.30 am..anyway since I got things to do, janji jumpa kat padang jer mlm nanti. 12.30pm dia call kata dia dah kat S’ban. OK, so she’s on the way now.

Malam ‘dinner’ 9.20pm, Sept 3rd. I sampai Bkt Serindit (mmg saja nak datang lewat..), dia takde, kawan dia pun takde…nowhere to be seen. Call tak jawab, sms tak balas. So I thot they must have changed their plan, after all it’s Saturday. So I pun makan la..nasik briyani, ada ayam, ada daging, dan memacam lagi (dorang amik caterer umah orang kawen – so lauk dia pun mcm umah org kawen jugak lah..). Rupa nyer dinner dah start at 8pm tadi ( saper la yg bagitau aku pukul 8.30 nih..). 9.30pm – the caterer started to pack their stuff. Sumer yg datang dah makan, dorng nak tunggu aper lagi..

9.50pm..Caterer left. And suddenly there she was, with her fren..hair all done, pakai suar itam and blouse putih jarang (kawan dia baju bunga2 – tak perasan pun bunga apa. My baju putih jarang? I tak jadi pakai, macam over-dress la pulak. But I was in black and white nonetheless. Haha.. Didn’t realize pun dorang datang until she came up to me, tgk baju I with that unspoken look ‘mana baju putih jarang?’. On my mind, I was bz with a diff Q, ‘Ntah dari mana la dorang ni – org dah nak balik, baru datang’. I didn’t even ask her dah makan ker belum (I assumed they have – it’s 9.50pm and siang tadi dia puasa, mesti by this time dia dah makan..). She led me to her fren..we borak2 for less than 2 mins and I told them Van yg bawak makanan baru jer balik (tapi masa tu, mata dok perati pompuan2 lain buat line dancing…from budak2, teens, 20 something, 30 something, 40 something,). She was making a call when somebody called me over (kwn lelaki..). So I tinggalkn dorang kejap. Few minutes later. her fren (budak melaka tu) came to where I was seated..and duduk kat I. “Lyn, mana As?’ Lyn kata ‘ dia pergi kejap – ada hal’. So we sat there..borak2 and gelak2 – ramai2 la. Somebody mintak I tolong antarkan dia balik, so I told lyn to wait for me bila As dtg nanti. Some 30 mins later, on the way back to Bkt Srindit, nampak As and Lyn, leaving??!. Dang! Kan dah suruh tunggu tadi. SMS As, cakap kat dia ‘ U tak tunggu pun I eh..’. She replied ‘ Kat Hang Tuah Mall’. No invitation to join, no nothing …kat TV pulak England lawan Wales.

Cek time, second half baru je start…Ah, tgk bola la dulu..

Abis bola, lalu kat hang tuah mall…lalu jer, tak turun carik. Tak nampak pun. Haha..esok jgn kata tak dtg dah la.

Sept.4th Sunday. 2pm – SMS As, ‘Ptg ni jgn lupa – Bkt Srindit, loncat2 (codeword for aerobic’. No answer. Takpe, semalam dia kata lepas aerobic, baru nak balik KL.

5.35pm – Sampai Bkt Srindit, dorg still takde, ‘eh! As ni nak jogging sekali ker tak.?’ OK, bagi dua minit – kalo takde, I jog ngan Hassan and Mezah jer. 2 mins up, dorang masih takde. I went without her.

6pm…terus join aerobic. Looked around, nampak Lyn. ooO As must be somewhere around. (Takpe, jumpa time minum nanti lah).

7pm..erobik abis. Pergi kat Lyn, ‘Mana As’. Lyn jawab ‘ Dia dah balik la..dia frust sgt. Datang Melaka pasal u, balik KL pun pasal U.’

Huh?!! Datang Melaka pasal I?? “Betul ker As dah balik Lyn..? Bila..?”

“Betul, tadi pukul 1..”

Tapi semalam dia kata nak balik lepas erobik.

‘Dia balik pasal you buat tatau jer kat dia, dah la dinner tak dapat makan”

(Rupa-rupa nyer, semalam masa dia tinggalkan Lyn kejap tu – dia gi carik makanan)

“eh biar betul Lyn, kan I suruh datang 8.30pm – ni pukul 9.50 baru sampai’

‘Tu la, lambat sikit. 8.30 masih kat kedai rambut, dia buat rambut tau..’

(Mmg cantik rambut dia malam tadi – ada curls kat ujung rambut.)

‘Tapi ni kan dinner kat padang Lyn, u tak cakap ker kat dia’.

Terus SMS As, ‘As, u ok. Puas I carik and tunggu u kat padang tadi’ ( of cos I didn’t tell her about the 2 mins wait.).

She didn’t answer my sms.

By this time, kitorng dah sampai kat tempat minum. 5 of us. Hasssan, Mezah, Man, Lyn and Adeq (hehe..bila dah adeq, kitorg mcm bro and sister jer lah.). As masih tak balas SMS. Call As, tak jawab jugak.

Sent her another SMS “ As, kitorg tgh minum ni, xbesh la u takde” – SEND!

Lyn cakap “ U mmg tak patut, ajak budak tu dtg melaka. Dia siap buat rambut lagi, frust dia. Dah la makanan abis, dia puasa tau and yet u buat tatau jer, tu pasal dia balik KL”. Dorang ni asik main lagu sama jer.

‘Wey Lyn, she was on the phone and then she left – hw wud I to know. Lagipun u dtg lambat, I ingat mesti u sumer dah makan. Dia tak cakap, mana la I nak tau’

‘Abistu – kitorng cakap kitorang kat Hang Tuah Mall, apesal tak datang?’

Hehe..I dah agak…she’l bring this up. “ Eh saper kata I tak pergi, I pergi, tapi tak nampak pun”

Kawan yg lain, sumer main tambah2…berpeluh jugak, rasa bersalah pun ada. Dorang ni plak bukan main mewah menembak.

And then – a reply from As ‘ yes, wht do you want. Geram I tau..pergi sana semata-mata kerana u. tapi very disappointed.”. Eh minah ni…sedap jari jer.

‘Lyn..betul ker As marah..?’

‘Abistu, u ingat dia seronok ker pasal semalam.’ Amboi Lyn, tanya sket dah eksen marah. Tertelan tulang ayam ker budak ni.

Hmm, mmg bebetul As ‘bunyi’ mcm marah. Jari tekan ‘reply’ to her msg.

‘As, I’m sorry. I tatau u marah, ingatkn everything was fine. I thot U had other plan earlier, pasal tu u lambat. Had I known u tak makan lagi, I wud have taken u to some other places..tapi kan As, mcm mana pun u marah I, I hv somethg to say - you look wonderful smlm. I love your hair. OK mcm ni la, next time you datang sini, I ganti ngan ikan bakar K.

And I got an almost instant reply this time…nada pun dah macam tak marah..(must be pasal komen rambut cantik hihi..)

‘U janji? Tak payah la ikan bakar, asam pedas pun cukup..apesal masa kat Hang Tuah Mall, u tak datang. Lama kitorg tunggu’. (LOL! Dlm marah pun boleh tunggu lagi..)

I balas ‘ Eh I tatau pun u tunggu I, ur msg bagitau I u kat Hang Tauh Mall jer, so I tgk la bola England lawan Wales. Abis bola, I lalu kat Hang Tuah Mall, tapi tak nampak u sumer.’

Actually kes marah tu belum settle abis lagi, As cakap dah belanja nanti baru cakap sorry. Itu takpe…the question is, how did things get to merajuk2 nyer part nih, sampai balik-balik KL. Susah gak bila kawan biasa pun merajuk, tak pujuk - kawan.

But I think we always take frens for granted, we have this crazy idea in our head that they will always be there and they will always be fine. I did!. I assumed too much. Little things like ‘dah makan ker belum’ makes a lot of diff at times. But sometimes, we just let ourselves get too distracted with other things…like line dancers. Nasib baik dia balik KL jer..kalo dia balik UK ker, US ker or Antartica ker atau pun masa dia kuar gi makan tu, dia eksiden ker, tak ker nyesal sumor idup…

Urrgh!! I know these things will keep repeating…

As for me, my real big lost must be that baju putih jarang…grr, tak sempat tgk betul2 malam tu – banyak sgt distractions.

On the same day : I lega! tapi Farm ilang jari, jwb sms sepatah dua jer (dia ngan T kat Cfee Bean), Anis – mcm ‘bz’ (macam jer k), nak sms Yan, tapi tak jadi, pikir pasal Katrina and dizz, after 5yrs, Pie finally called – ingat nak cakap miss dot ker, rupa nyer nak bagitau lagu ‘Cinta’ Melly and Kris tu best. Adeq bengang sbb dinner tinggalkan dia..(btw Anis, yg cakap sayang2 masa u called dulu, tu la Adeq. Dia mmg camtu, kalo ade pompuan call, dia akan sabotaj, pastu gelak guling tendang terajang. Tapi banyak kali gak bf dia call, I plak yg sabotaj dia…hehe.
