Cikgu oh Cikgu

Kelaka tak kelaka la jugak cikgu aku ni. Before I start, lemme tell you a little bit about this teacher. Let us call him Cikgu Uncle Man. Muwahaha..He is (to me, and m sure people who knows him will agree with me) the best Mathematics teacher in town! Superb babe cara mengajar dia. Ateh bawah, pinn pinn, ponn ponn, adalah antara kata laluan yang perlu kami ingat dalam kelas Cikgu Uncle Man ni..his way of teaching is different than what teaches in school. I went to his classes during my form 3 and form 5. His name is not unfamiliar to me, since his son is a friend of my neighbour, and two of my cousins went to his tuition class also last time. And like a tradition, my sis also gone thru her time with him, Chakuchak (another neighbour) pun g kelas Cikgu Uncle Man jugak!

Nak dijadikan cerita, on last Saturday, I attended Marini's reception. I met Cikgu Uncle Man, and I straight away went to him and he immediately asked about Dedek (my baby sis), "Apa cite adik kamu jang? dia takde pun call cikgu bagitau dapat berapa A? mana dia sekarang tu?". I replied, "Dia dapat 7A cikgu, dia dapat matrik Negeri Sembilan, pastu UPU baru tau dia dapat UiTM amik Ukur Bahan." He added, "Bagitau dengan dia jang, dia da tak ingat cikgu dah ye", and he continued talking to a man next to him about us! I have no idea who the man was, but the man just nodded when he spoke out, "Dia dua beradik ni memang rapat dengan saya. Manja betul adik dia dengan saya, alih-alih dapat result taknak dia datang umah saya tu..bla..bla..bla..". ok, enuff with that. So after I reached home, while busy playing UNO with Dedek and Chakuchak, I told Dedek about it. Dedek tried to call his cellphone, no answer. She called his house phone, someone said he was sleeping. Let him be la..

After solat Asar, I accompanied abah (my father) to buy some of his stuff at Parkson. Suddenly this young man called and asked "Awak ke yang hantar adik awak tadi? Dia ada kat rumah. Dia datang dengan sorang lagi budak perempuan". (huh! takde lain la ni..mesti Dedek ngan Chakuchak! I did not know they planned to pay him a visit). Finished shopping, I sent abah home and faster drove to Cikgu Uncle Man's house. It was already 6.15 p.m. like that. He was happy to see me coming, and of course, these two fella were looking at me like "you are here also! sibuk je datang!" We enjoyed the evening with a cup of milo and a bulk of biscuits. "Sedap ni..kamu try makan. Ha..!!Sedap kan??! Cikgu selalu makan ni, cicah ngan air milo". Pulak dah! Taknak makan, dia paksa makan. Anak bujang dia lak malu-malu hantar cawan kat aku. Cet! Sembang punya sembang, masuk la cite pasal kawin. Cikgu Uncle Man tanya, da ada calon belum, orang mana, bila nak kahwin, dan gelak besau aku bila dia cakap, "Asal kamu taknak kawin pulak kalau ada laki yang nak masuk minang kamu. Kawin je la."..(I hope you are reading this my King..ehehehe..so apa lagi? masuk la minang!). Cikgu Uncle Man menurunkan beberapa petua andai menjadi isteri kelak!

Cikgu Uncle Man : Kamu masak tak? Kawin nanti mesti masak tau untuk laki kamu.
(as usual, Dedek akan cakap BANYAK bila masuk tang masak-memasak ni)
Ah Ai : Ye cikgu, saya akan masak.
Cikgu Uncle Man : Saya tak suka orang pompuan beli lauk kat kedai ni. Sekali-sekala takpe la,
kalau selalu sangat, takut laki lari pulak.
Ah Ai : Kalau perempuan tu keja cikgu, tak sempat la nak masak selalu.
Cikgu Uncle Man : My wife keja jugak, dengan Immigration. Dia masak. Breakfast, lunch, makan
petang, makan malam, dia akan masak. Dia akan balik tengahari masak. Abg Airie (his son) mana makan luar. Dia bawak bekal. Dia taknak makan luar.
Ah Ai : (memandang Cikgu Uncle Man dengan muka blur)
Cikgu Uncle Man : Cikgu nyampah tengok Nora tip-top (I totally have no idea who this Nora was..Nora Roberts aku kenal la..)tu selalu sangat beli lauk. Kekadang, cikgu lalu kat deret kedai tu, cikgu nampak ramai perempuan beli-beli lauk, cikgu lalu kereta dekat-dekat, cikgu turunkan cermin kereta, cikgu jerit, "Balik masak la!!..terkebil-kebil mata diorang pandang cikgu" (dan gelak besar la aku mendengar kata-kata Cikgu Uncle Man, apatah lagi bila cuba membayangkan muka mereka yang terkebil-kebil).

Memang Cikgu Uncle Man kelakar. We left his place 10 minutes before 7. And his son's mission to hide Dedek's shoe has failed! Dia terambil sandal Chakuchak dan sorokkan. Muwahaha...teringat dialog Chakuchak, "Mana lagi sebelah slipper kita ni?? Takkan la kucing amik pulak! Mana ni?". Jumpa balik sebelah sandal Chakuchak atas batu sebelah pasu Cikgu Uncle Man. Hahaha..nampak sangat slipper sape dia nak try sorokkan. Apa da..

Well, moga Cikgu Uncle Man sihat selalu. Sayang cikgu...Ah Ai will upload Cikgu Uncle Man's photo soon!
