Kenduri and the story~


One day, in a 'kenduri'.....

''Assalamualaikum, Cik,'' with a winning-smile, shaking hands with an elderly 'Mak Cik' whom i never met at Kak Som's house.
'' Ohh..Waalaikumsalam.Anak dari mana ni?''
''Tu ha..Rumah depan sana.Sebelah rumah Cik Ita.''
''Ohh..yang tu..Ehh, anak ni cikgu ye?Dah kawen belum?Orang mana ni?''

Ohhh..ooooo..There it comes. The 'klise' question which has been endlessly referred to me since i begin my NQT service. I must choose the right words and appear ''cool'' to respond to such inquiry....haha...

''A'ah cik.Saya ngajar kat sini.Orang Tebrau,'' i replied, the winning smile maintained.
"Ehh..dekat tuh.Sebelah rumah mak cik ade cikgu-cikgu jugak.Lelaki semuanya.Nak dari mana, semuanya ada. Terengganu, Penang..haa,pilih je.Datang rumah ye,senang-senang nanti.''

Almost giggling, but politely replied...
''Ye Cik..Nanti lapang-lapang saya datang ye. Terima kasih, Cik''.

Haha...There it goes.My 'behind the scene' kenduri story...:)
