Assalammualaikum. Bismillah. Hi everyone, today's story is about today.
This morning. I was in my sister's room, reading a big fat book called khalifah-khalifah yang Benar by Abdul Latif Talib. It's a compilation of 4 books from the author, it's about the 4 khulafa ar-Rasyidin in Islam. A simple, yet well written book. I Love it so much that I wanna dance. It gave me a different perspective of a friend to understand Rasulullah SAW 's life rather than came up a whole bunch of facts. I feel like I'm living that time. I saw his actions, I felt the characters' feelings, oh I'd prefer to spend hours on that book than sleeping.
Okay, as I am indulging myself reading, ummi called me out. She wanted to show me something, so she took me to her room. She pointed her finger towards 2 plastics bags and asked me to lift them up for her. Err. I wondered what's the catch. "Darn, its heavy." I mean it kind of weighed more that 10 kilos." What is it ?"
"Don't open that bag!" ummi said, "itu Abah punya....................... "
Well, you see, one of the bag is transparent so I saw a lot of coins in it. No wonder.
Then ummi continued, "abah told me these are the coins he uses to buy water. You don't need a lot of coins to buy water. With only 10 cents you can get half a litter of water, so I don't think they are only to buy water, but also the coins he always bring for you when you were in MRSM. "
Oh
Whenever Abah comes all the way to Pontian to visit me in MRSM, he always brings a small pouch that contains lots of coins for me to call home. I feel like we were back to Chinese dynasty where I'll get rewarded with gold coins from the emperor. The thing is, in my MRSM, we can't bring cell phones to the hostel; its the biggest crime ever, so ya most of my friends there were criminals la. Well for me, I'm kinda adhere to that rule and be the good guy. Besides, I don't really need a phone, I usually call home once in a week. Oh oh, I almost forgot, I NEED those coins to use the washing machine too. Ooo..
Fathers; they dont talk much. But they love you more than you think they do
