After many moons, we visited mak and ayah at Bagan Lalang on Tuesday. After the Nilai toll, I could see many new buildings, in various phases of developments, which bodes well for the little town (pretty soon it won't be little anymore).
When we reached Sungai Pelek, I was actually amazed to see a KFC outlet there, hehhee. Wohooo, finally Sungai Pelek is not so 'pelek' anymore. We have more shops and buildings there, we even have a slimming centre, for folks who are concern about their bulging bellies and enormous thighs.
IdaMan (the name ayah gave to the house) looks different too. This is to be expected for he is a man with so many ideas and who can't sit still even for a second. When we arrived he was soaked with sweat since he had been working the porch since morning. It's a great relief to see my parents' faces, all healthy and well. (Did you know that looking at your parents' faces grants you a pahala? I only know about this recently.)
We had a wonderful lunch together, though eating only simple dish of sambal ikan, sup sawi, tempoyak, timun and kerang rebus. Mom's cooking is always number one! Hehhe..the good taste lingers even after hours you ate.
I'll be spending my confinement period in Bagan Lalang, hope that mak will not be so strict on the food. Otherwise, matilah aku!
I want more of that health, I want more of that wealth, I want more of that patience, I want more of that intelligence, I want more of that creativity, I want more of that laughter, I want more of that energy, I want more of life, I know it can give me that, I am in the process of getting them.
