DRAFTING
We arrive at the village at 2 p.m. I
can see my grandmother or we called Tok Wan’s
happiness face. She grab my hand and she hug me very tight. “Such a long
time I don’t see you Shida” she told me. Tok Wan ask us to go inside the house
and get a rest. After have a good rest and packing our thing I walk into living
room. I see my grandfather or I call Tok Ki was chat with someone. I don’t know
how to describe it. Maybe a white boy?
See me standing like a stone, Tok Ki
ask me to joining them. Tok Ki introduce him to me. The boy’s name is Danny and
he came from Australia. Danny and his family are on vacation here. Tok Ki ask
me for taking Danny around the village.
It’s so awkward for me. Thank goodness I manage in English. Surprisingly Danny
can also speaks in Malay, even though it’s not pretty good, but I can
understand it well. I do not know that Danny can be so hilarious. He share
about many things and asked me a lot of question to. We exchange opinions and
ideas, with him, I learn many things.
After taking Danny around the
village we walk back to Tok Ki’s home. Danny’s family also there having a
conversation with my family. “Thanks for bring my son with you, he really
excited to learn about Malaysia’s culture” Danny’s mom said. Until now, Danny and
I still keep our bonding. For this year, Danny told me that he will come again.
Can’t wait to see him again.
