| i come out from the soil. errrr~~ |
berikut adalah kisah benar yang berlaku di antara penulis
dan mak beliau. *ehem, acewah.
one day, during the evening, i came out from my room with a
tupperware of jellies and gummies. so i sat on the couch next to my mom who was
giving full attention to the television. tried to be polite, i offered some of
the jellies and gummies to my mom.
“mak, nak tak? sedap oo~”
and i got a quite heart breaking reply from my mom.
“ape ni? hishh, makanan bebudak macamni pun makan.”
i just showed a nice and cute grin to my mom. what to do. it is a
food i cherished since i was a kid. ahahha. and my mom said while
gave a glance at the jellies and gummies, “ tau tak ade pewarna dalam benda
benda ni semua?”
erkkk. “once in a while je mak. hihi”
hearing to my answer, my mom said again “dah lah tu, nak
buat jelly jelly ni mesti guna gelatin”.
haha. seems like my mom was trying to have a discussion on
food. so, i just giggled, “mak, diorang guna gelatin yang dari bovine source.
bukan dari pinky-creature tu, in shaa Allah”
my mom looked at me, “haa, habistu bovine tu bukan dari
lembu? halal ke tak? entah sembelih entah tidak”.
i didn’t know what was going on with my mom that evening.
somehow, she tried to make me feel hesitate. hehe. “mak, diorang letak cap
halal jakim besar besar dekat plastik tu.”
and my mom laughed. so, i felt a little bit relief hearing
that laugh. it was obviously showed that she was only joking around. however, that was not the end of our
conversation on jellies and gummies. she quoted slight reminders for me.
“kita ni kalau bab makan kena hati-hati. sebab nanti ape
yang kita makan tu jugak nak jadi darah daging pun. tambah tambah bab halal
haram. effect bab ibadah kita tau. bila dah besar, lagi kena jaga. lagi banyak
badan nak guna vitamin, zat zat, nutrien semua. takkan nak bagi badan makan
benda benda yang tahap class E je. kata nak sihat, tapi tak jaga makan. pastu
kata Allah tak adil. sendiri punya kerja, salahkan orang.”
