Last Sunday, I went to my old
schoolmate house
Been a while, we didn’t met
What I can say about her is that,
She is pretty but a workaholic, but
kewl…
She love activities
It happened that her mum is actually
my dad ex-officemate
Well we split it out when we met
She talk about my father…she quite
closed with my dad
Even, my late mum really know her
quite well
Well my dad actually work at the
bank
He love to sing and perform,
including auntie Puteh too
She told me that my dad love this
song “Pasir Runtuh”
Plus even “Benawong Solo”, hey I
love that song too…
It’s just my dad never told about
which song he love
Even, when there is a function, his
other officemate band that “Benawong Solo”
Coz he loved to create new lyrics,
ahaksss…
She told me that, my dad is a great
singer with his awesome voice…
I just smile at that time, knowing
that none of this family member knows about me singing, ahaks
What I can say is that, sort of a
summary, it run in the family
We love performing art
My dad and his siblings, my late mum
and her relative
Me and including my eldest brother
He performs with a band in a bar…
Me with dancing sound a bit far from
what they do, but I guess it also related to music too…
Me love ballet, but unfortunately
it’s remain as only as a dream
But I guess, I was given a second
change by being a gymnast
Well, I learn it by myself,
Watching, studying the movements
that the artistic and rhythmic gymnast (girls) performing during training and
competition
Back to the story, my dad also
performed on theater last time while my late mum can play music instrument too…
They met up during a function, where
my mum had to perform with her group and my dad was called up to perform at
that function…that was their first meet.
Right after they married the car
that driven by my dad was accident. Hit by a trailer. My mum only can give
birth after 3 years of the wedding coz of the accident (that was what the
doctor told). And since that they stop performing act. My dad and my late mum
stop singing.
Frankly speaking I was grown up by a
religious family. Not knowing that my parents are actually loves performing
art.
It’s just that recently I began to
discover one by one, start after my mum passed away. And now I know to whom I
follow i.e. love performing art-music

Auntie Puteh told me that, my dad
can afford to see a microphone. He will grab it and sing. Where it’s true,
after his retirement, when he has no place to sing like before i.e not in front
of us.
Auntie Puteh also told me that how
deep my dad love to my mum.
Where suddenly I feel something
inside my heart where I can’t explain it by words.
Then I realized that I miss my late
mum
And also I miss my dad too
I missed the time where all of my
siblings were still in school.
It’s just that I feel a bit apart
with them
And I just miss it all
The only that I can do is just
dancing for my life by myself. Nothing more.
Best regards
