Rindu.
Rindu mak bekalkan makanan untuk anak dia ni bawak pgi sekolah/asrama/kolej. Rindu mak message setiap pagi, walaupun sama je textnya. Rindu mak call cemas, kalau kalau anak dia tak bangun siap pergi kelas lagi. Rindu mak sakat sakat pasal kawan lelaki. Rindu nyanyi and enjoy lagu old folks dengan ayah dalam kereta. Rindu naik Satria, walau usang namun kereta paling bahagia. Rindu tengok ayah berkebun, menyapu tak penat. Rindu tengok ayah kena marah dengan mak sebab siram segala benda dekat luar. Rindu kena rotan dengan dorang. Rindu dorang hantar pergi tuitions. Rindu kejar van Pakcik before dorang pergi kerja. Rindu byebye dorang sampai dah tak nampak bayang kereta. Rindu ikut mak pergi kerja, tengok cara gaul dengan orang. Rindu tunggu ayah hon nak bukakan gate. Rindu tengok mak kabut tak tentu pasal.
Dan bermacam lagi rindu yang tak terluah.
"We lose some, we gain some". When the issue regarding overseas student have no other work to do than going for vacation rised, this is the first point to highlight - memang lah best merasa dunia student berjalan dan have fun, nampak glamorous semua, orang fikir kita pandai. But there's something very important we're losing, a year spend with family. Orang jenis attached dengan parents/family, lagi sakit. Like falling down to the ground, like being hit by a car, like being dumped by a lover.
When I was 17, approaching SPM, I brought my phone to school. Like the usual, I called home. And before I ended the call, I said "I love you, mummy". Little did I know I was being eavesdropped. Suddenly, a friend asked, "How did you do that?". I said, "What?". She said, "Expressing ily."
I was taken aback by everything. I didnt know that someone might had issues with that! She told me she was shy to express her feelings. While I in the other hand, dont mind at all. I could even shout those precious words across a field or whatever. Just my two cents, dont be silly feeling shy to let those words out of your mouth. They are after all, your parents!
