Old
9 June 2009I visited dear really old Nek Wa of mine after Zohor. Ok maybe she is as old as your grannies or could be younger than your grannies, perhaps my grandauntie is older than yours
And she sat at her balcony silently, offering me kuih cincin and sharing tit bits of her life.
Nek Wa told us that one of her closest neighbour at the end of the road, had passed away.
Innalillah..
I asked solemnly, “Is she younger than you Nek Wa?”
“Ah no. I am older than her dear,” Nek Wa replied.
“Ah these eyes are getting blurry each day. Sometimes little tears sparkled without me realising. It is time for me to go perhaps,”
“Hush hush hush Nek Wa,”
We then moved to a cherry topic to distract her from the thoughts of returning to God.
Nek Wa even strongly disagreed on flying to Miri when her daughter (my aunt) invited her to, as Nek Wa does not want to return to God while she is in Miri. She wants to be in Kuching by then.
Hush hush hush.
Nek Wa is 84 years old.
I sometimes wonder if she has the chance to see me again; the least is to graduate.
Aiyoh. Emo lah pulak.
