Amir



'Bushhhhh'

Satu penumbuk hinggap di muka Ahmad. Ahmad diam.Perlahan darah yang mengalir disapu.
Dia tunduk ke lantai.

'Klangggg'
Habis penyapu,mop,baldi bersepah dalam dorm.
Zain pungut dan letak balik ke sudut selepas membersihkan dormnya.

'Kau!Jangan makan!'
Farid senyum kelat menerima arahan.Lapar.Tapi,dia takut hendak ke kantin.

'Semua!Jangan kawan dengan dia!'
Merah mata Sayed.Marah.Renungan Kau-Akan-Menyesal- segera dihantar.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Mel,aku nak cakap siket"

"Apehal?"

"Kau.Apasal kau layan orang macam tu?"

"Kau nak aku layan kau macam diorang ke?"

"Mel,you are my friend.Aku taknak orang benci kau"

"If being hated are the way to get people understand and accept pain,I with pleasure accept my destiny"

"Mel,takde jalan lain ke?"

"I want them to feel pain,to think about pain,to accept pain,to know pain."

"Mel,I know what you've been through but......"

Kolar baju Faiz dipegang.

"Kau.Kau tak paham ke? People would not appreciate what they have!"

Faiz ditolak ke belakang.Dia bangun dan berlalu pergi.

"Bukan semua macam kau,Mel!!!"

Gema jeritan mengekori Amir.Amir tersenyum sinis.

"Ya,Faiz.Bukan semua macam aku."Hanya dia yang dengar jawapan tu.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Amir!Amir!Amir!

Sorakan bergema di sudut kanan dewan.

Sayed!Sayed!Sayed!

"Kau?Nak cabar aku?Ada berani?Kau jangan tempah nahas.Aku Amir!"
Amir duduk tenang memeluk tubuh.Mata menangkap kehijauan padang.Dia membelakangkan Sayed

Heh."Aku Sayed!"

"Mel,jangan la Mel.Kau Ketua Pengawas kan."

"Kau apehal Sayed?Sunyi?"

Hiarghhhh.

Sepi.Terlopong.Kagum.

Amir!Amir!Amir!.Sorakan kembali lagi.

Huhh.Sayed terjebam ke tanah.Kilat sungguh pergerakan Amir.Refleksnya hebat.

"Aku tanya.Kau apehal?Sunyi?"

"Bangang ko Amir!"

Sekali lagi,Amir menidakkan cubaan Sayed yang ingin menyerangnya.

"Baru kau tahu apa tu sunyi.Habis,yang kau layan orang macam sampah apasal?Kau ingat kitorang tin?Berisi kau ambil,kosong kau buang."

"Aku.............."

"Aku apa?Say it Sayed!What?Aku Sayed?"

Amir berjalan mendekati Sayed yang terduduk.Rapat.Mulut ke telinga.

"You've one last chance to remend it.And it's now.Wrong words,wrong choices,wrong future"

Amir berpusing dan meninggalkan padang.Jemaah mula bersurai mengikut Amir.

"Aku mintak maaf kat semua.Especially,Jamil.Aku mintak maaf sebab layan korang dengan teruk.Aku sedar duit takleh beli kawan-kawan,kebahagiaan.Aku betul-betul mintak maaf.Aku menyesal."

Langkah mereka terhenti.Mereka berpusing dan semua tersenyum.Riuh padang dengan tepukan gemuruh.Amir terus berjalan.Tersenyum.Sambung kerja.

Biar Aku Sahaja

“Boleh tolong aku siket tak?” “Apa dia?” Meski sejak tadi berdiam diri, mulut terkunci sepi, matanya dari tadi menatap susuk tubuh yang duduk di hadapannya. “Berhenti pandang aku macam tu. Berhenti tengok aku macam aku cedera parah. Berhenti tengok aku macam aku orang yang kau kena lindung. Aku ok. Jangan risau.” Dia faham pandangan Ijad. Lagi lagi lepas Ijad nampak dia nangis habis tadi dalam bilik. Dan Ijad cuma tercegat berdiri kat situ dengan pandangan yang sama tanpa sepatah kata. Dia tahu Ijad tak perlu tanya apa-apa, Ijad tahu semua. “Tolonglah berhenti. Kau cuma buat hati aku lagi luluh.” Ijad dengan perlahan membawa pandangan ke luar tingkap. Angin berderu masuk membawa angin  sejuk yang sekali lagi menambah pedih di hulu hatinya. Terasa ingin menangis lagi sekali. “Kau tahu Nas apa buat aku rasa tak guna sekarang?”  Ijad bersuara rendah seolah-olah bercakap dengan diri sendiri. Dia mendiamkan diri. Perlahan tangannya memgang dadanya. Sak...

2020- The Pandemic Year

As we are approaching the end of the year 2020, I find my heart starts to fill with rage and fire again. I'm hurt and angry (probably at God again). I know we all have a hard time this year but we are not exactly in the same boat. As for me, I saw 2020 as a hope, that after everything I went through in 2019, 2020 is going to be fine. At least, that's what I've been telling myself. And now we are already in December, I think I've lied to myself enough. So, let's summarize what happened in the year 2020. First of all, I had a sleep disorder. My sleep problem was terrible and it all started after I came back to Germany. Sometimes, I was getting like 3 hours of sleep in a 24-hour period. This disaster continued on for almost 8 to 9 months. However, this sleep disorder helped me a lot while getting through Ramadhan. So, for the first time since I arrived in Germany, I can follow another version of the prayer calendar, which I believe is more nature convincing. Oh yes, me...

Ask God Now

This thought hit me so hard that I just can't ignore it and start to write again in this blog. You know what, think of the time when you were in trouble. Think of the time when you were sick. Think of the time when nothing went fine. Think of the time when your chest felt as if it would burst any second at any time. And remember how many times you called God to fix the thing for you. Remember how many times you asked God to make the way easy for you. Remember the time you asked God to lend you the strength to walk through the rough and cold season. And how many times did God answer your call? Every time! Each and every time! Some in ways that you can see it with your naked eye and some in ways that you could only understand if you have patience hold inside your soul. See, we are the living proof that God answers every prayer. But there will come a time when our call, our prayers will be ignored. And that's when we know everything is too late. When is that? When we alre...
