lembu.. oh lembu..

Last Tuesday.. when the sun was just setting down to dusk.. and maghrib was about to enter.. while i was taking a break from my hectic day, laying on the couch and flipping over the astro's channel.. my phone rang.. it was abang...

Abang : nak dinner apa malam ni?
Me : anything will do.. nasi ayam pun boleh...
Abang : ok.. nasi ayam 2 eh.. im on the way home dah ni..
Me : ok.. drive carefully.. dah malam ni..
Abang : ok..

It was just like any other night.. so usual.. no different then any other night.. when the phone rang again... it was abang again..

Me: hello?
Abang : abang accident.. langgar lembu...

He said only that.. and i could not hear him anymore... but i could still hear the chaotic situation through the phone.. being a helpless and emotional woman aka hysterical wife.. i got panic.. i was shouting and calling for him at the phone.. no reply and all i could hear was the noise.. i was shaking and trembling by the phone.. and all sorts of stupid thoughts strike into my mind.. i feared for the most.. i recited the ayatul kursi and 3 qul.. repeatedly.. i tried to call abang again.. he did not pick up.. again.. i was panic.. forced myself to get calm down to put on the tudung and get myself the car keys.. i needed to get to abang.. i couldnt just wait at home.. when i was about to get into the car.. the phone rang again..

Me : abang?
Abang : abang ok.. kereta je remuk.. lembu tu mati..

It was a relief listening to his voice again.. i took a deep long breath..

Me : alhamdulillah.. saya datang ambil abang.. abang kat mana?
Abang : ok.. dekat dengan loji air serdang ni..

When i got there.. it was a mess.. my almost 4 years old red kelisa has been damaged quite badly.. and the cow.. it was a big one.. cow dung was everywhere.. even on my kelisa.. poor thing.. both cow and my kelisa.. i think the cow was female and pregnant too.. but im not sure though.. could not get any near to it.. too scary..

According to abang, he was driving like usual.. around 70-80 kmh.. all of sudden, out of nowhere.. a herd of cows came from the left side of the road.. it was dark and abang really did not see them coming.. he pushed hard the break pedal with all his might but he could not avoid this one big cow.. it was two actually.. the other one was still alive but its leg was broken and limping into the woods.. but thanks to god that abang was all ok.. wonder if he got his head knocked or his chest crushed to the stirring.. but he was wearing the seatbelt all along so he managed to escape the worse part.. alhamdulillah!!!

After almost 30 minutes of waiting, a cop arrived with a "call guy" (is this what u call them?) and a tow truck.. the chinese man who drove the truck said it was only three days ago he towed another car in the same area which had the same accident.. with cows too.. the cop and the call guy even said the same thing.. that area was a major hit of the case..

It is true.. i have been encountered to those herds quite several time.. but i was lucky i guess... and all that happened is a reminder for myself not to speed to school anymore.. ;(.. can i do that? me? not speeding? hmmm..

the call guy.. his name was LAN BUAH.. according to his card.. can you see his biceps? quite huge..


my dear kelisa..


cow dung on my cracked glasses..




the engine... quite bad huh?

being what people called patah kaki... starting from today until i dont know when.. abang drive both of us to his work place.. dropped himself there.. then i drive the car to school.. and since he finishes his work at 5.30pm, he gets home by taking on ride with his other friends.. which mostly girls.. young girls.. ( sound like jealous?) .. tawakal... :)
