Bila Isteri Merajuk....

Yesterday morning, I went to the wet market by myself for the first time which is located at Presinct 8, 20 km away from our home. This is due to merajuk panjang to my dearest hubby who sent me late sms, Balik lambat on Friday. Anyway, I ask his permission first which I could see from his expression, “Betul ke bini aku ni?”.

All this while, we wake all our sons up at 7.00am and “Jom, jom pergi pasar.” There will be crying, screaming and wailing to angkut them into the car. There’s no peaceful feeling while choosing fishes with no red eyes or the freshest chickens, (my umi advised me, “Cari hok kaki terangkat tuh”) as my mind is with the difficulties of my hubby handling our sons in the car. Sometimes, Mr. Nice Guy will drive to the wet market by himself with a list given by Mrs. Nice Guy.

I always nervous whenever I have to drive to new places by myself, but amazingly not this time. Instead, while l bawak diri to the wet market, listening to Anuar’s song, Mungkin, which has the lyric, “Mungkinkah segala derita di jiwa, akan terubat jua akhirnya..” just suit me well..heheh. Though I wish an old song, Penantian Suatu Penyeksaan, (I think we have this song in 90’s?!). Seksa tau hari-hari tunggu hubby balik dari office, yela everyday wait what? I can understand how Aini’s feel when she had to wait for her hubby everyday.

My neighbour next door, Imah did ask me once, "Tunggu Amran ke, Da?", when she saw me on the swing with my youngest son on my lap, while my other sons running around happily and the clock has already shown 7.00pm. I replied, “Yela, setia menanti.” We both laugh.

Anyway, alhamdulillah, I reach the wet market in one piece and ….heee… I forgot the way back…(have to use different route to go back). Ah! Redah jelah…that comes to my mind. At each traffic light, it always turn green before I could read the signboard. Instead of turning left, I went straight ahead then I realize… hmmm…I’m in Presinct 10. Well, again instead of feeling panic, I just enjoy the beautiful landscape at Presinct 10 and got some idea for my garden while finding the U-Turn sign.

I reached home feeling fresh and I can put a smile while talking to my hubby about the beautiful landscape at Presinct 10. Hmmm...after this, I will ask him to drive us there and show him how I want my garden to look like.

Oh! One more thing that keep on lingering in my mind. I guess there’s no more Mr. Nice Guy who will wake up early during weekend and zoom to the wet market with his sleepy eyes, while Mrs Nice Guy curl inside the blanket with her sons and ... oh! I remember that look on Mr. Nice Guy's face...hee..hee.. Instead, I can hear Mr. Nice Guy would say, “Sayang, pergilah sendiri”, while he snug under the blanket joining our sons’ sweet dream….
