I was asked..

... THAT question again.

* * *

Day/date: Sunday 5th Jun'05
Venue: Felda Palong, Gemas, Negeri Sembilan
Time: Around 1.30pm
Event: Cuz Du's wedding. (The newlyweds were having their "makan beradab".)

Question was asked by: Pak Ngah, Mak Ngah, Mak Andak, Mak Teh... (can't remember who else asked me THAT question..)

"Yam bila pulak nak kahwin ni?"


(((((sighhhh)))))


My answer(s):
(a) Smiling sweetly (although at times, forcedfully. eheheh)
(b) "Ntah lah.."
(c) "Nanti sampai masa kahwin la"
(d) More smiles (I swear it, I could've won an award!)

* * *

When Pak Ngah asked THAT question again (for like the 10th time!), and this time Mak was within hearing distance, I only 'sengeh' at him.
So - not getting the response he hoped for, I think - Pak Ngah turned to Mak (Mak is the eldest sister with the same father) and asked her instead.

Mak answered this:
"Nikah kahwin ni kerja Yang Di Atas tu, kerja Allah. Kalau Dia kata esok, esok pun boleh kahwin. Tak payah rancang-rancang. Kalau Dia kata tahun depan, tunggu jer lah tahun depan."
(Tu diaaa Along bersuara dah!)

Terus Pak Ngah diam.

And no one asked me that question again.
For the rest of the time we were in Gemas.


Hihihihhi.. isn't Mak the best?!?
