OTAK AYAH NI

ape yg ayah tak masak? kijang, rusa, pelanduk, landak, lembu, kerbau, kambing, ayam, ikan...semuanyalah...kami bukan keluarga vegan. itik jer kot tak pernah...hmm betullah, tak pernah. masak ape? owh...mcm mcm...masak lomak cili api, dh tentulah, masak kicap, sambal, goreng ajer...uiihhh...sodap eee lak...tambah lak kicap...uming ai... 

well, kami keluarga penjimat. semua anggota haiwan tersebut, selagi boleh masak, ayah akan masak. 
hati, limpa, perut (droolingdrooling), lidah. kulit (kulit rusa/kijang best - mcm...erm...chewing gum, yum), ekor...semuanyerlah yg boleh mkn...otak sekali yer...wow...sedap2... 

so, he came back one day with a plastic full of cow's brain - otak lembu... 

"ayah masak ape hari ni?" 
"otak. nak?" 
"nak nak. masak lauk warna kuning tu" 
"masak lemak?" 
"ha.ha. tapi tak nak pedas sgt..." 

i looked at the...how shud i say this...the brain (?), poked it with my hand...i like the texture. does my brain look and feel like this too. i feel like poking my own brain. 

"mcm mane nak bersihkan ni yah?" 
"lalukan jerlah bawah air" 

moments later, a rather clean looking brain was placed on the kitchen top. 
but then he forgot the main ingredient - cili padi. 

"kejaplah dik. ayah kena g beli cili api 'lu. tak cukup nih." off he went out of the kitchen. i looked at the brain, eee... 

"HABIS TU YAH, OTAK AYAH NI TINGGALKAN CAM TU JE KER?" 

maaf yah, it came out wrong. you know what i mean...haha... 
ayah dh kat depan sgt, tiga kali aku tanya sambil jerit benda yg sama, baru aku sedar, agak kurang ajar bunyinya pertanyaan ku itu tadi...
