June 29th - the date my parents tied their wedding knot, in the year 1958. it has been 51 wonderful, fruitful years. last year we had a superb family occasion for the golden jubilee of their marriage, together with the family day. this year tak de buat ape2 special. i send dad a text message this morning. he called to thank me, but i was in a meeting, tak leh cakap panjang. moga berbahagia selamanya.
but i guess, one of the best gift they ever had for their anniversary was the birth of my only brother, syam, who was born on the same date in 1973. he is the ninth child, and was called as "awang 9" by the kampung folks back then.
my brother syam - an obedient child. anak yang baik, sabar and never say 'no' to my parents. even though he is the only boy in the family, he was not spoilt and tak pernah received special privilege. our parents treat him sama je ngan orang lain. masa kecik2 manja sangat2 and always nak ikut mana2 my parents pergi. kalau tak dibenarkan ikut, dia akan kejar kereta tu, and it was me and seri yang kena kejar dia and bawa dia balik rumah.
syam masa kecik - mat smart. asyik pakai bush jacket macam ayah. rambut sentiasa rapi, baju tucked-in and mesti pakai belt. bila dah besar.... selekeh habis! bila dah jumpa Era baru nampak presentable sikit.
anyway bro, i wish you all the best, sukses dunia akhirat. may eisyraf and eqmal be the best children and menyejukkan hati you and era.
luv ya!
