Poligami

"You nak kahwin dua, tiga tak?"

"Saidon (Cikgu Agama) kata, I boleh ada 2,3,4 isteri, jika I adil."

Kami sedang memasak mee.

Aku pandang kuali.

Ada air mendidih,

Beberapa ketul meat balls,

Sayur, sotong & udang.

Lagi jelas, ada air, sedang mendidih >>>>>>

"So, if you ADIL, you mahu kahwin 2,3?"

Dia ignore soalan aku.

Dia tutup api di dapur.

Ada 2 mangkuk di tepi.

"One meat ball for you, one meat ball for me.."

"Two meat balls for you, two meat balls for me.."

"Kenapa you bahagi-bahagi macamtu?"

Dia sambung bahagi, mengira, sampai empat.

Aku lihat sahaja.

"Four meat balls for you, four meat balls for me.."

Aku pandang kuali, tinggal 1 meat ball.

"Ha.. see, extra 1 meat ball. This meat ball is for ME.

See, I memang tak adil.

So I kahwin satu jer"

Oh. Begitu caranya.
