I'm a Sucker for Pain

chapter 28

“eh, we are passing Magellan?” dad tanya… saya mengangguk saja..

In 5 minutes…

“eh, kita limpas Tanjung Aru?” dad tanya lagi… I shrugged…

Saya drive limpas Kepayan, then limpas lagi Lintas… drive punya drive… dekat sudah Bukit Padang...

“kita jalan-jalan ambil angin di Tun Fuad ka ni, Don?” mom macam sounded ketakutan… takut kena samun kali…

To the right is Bukit Padang...

But I drove straight…

“Shopping di Citymall?” dad tanya..
“neahh, sayang duit…” saya jawab… tsk tsk…

In another 8 minutes kami sampai ke destinasi tanpa niat dan tujuan saya sedari tadi…

At the Bestians…

“Harren’s house…?” dad tengok saya macam saya sudah gila…

I turned to dad and smiled… ternga-nga mulut dad, mata dad terbeliak, terkejutlah tu…

“London…” dad sounded horrified… “I’m only in my golf shorts and t-shirt…”

“London…!” mom shrieked… “Mummy pakai baju rumah saja ni…! Bukan we are supposed to walk by the beach dekat rumah saja ka?”

“kau tengoklah, ling…” dad membebel.. “punca youlah this, mau juga ikut anak kita yang love-crazed ni…”

Love-crazed…? Apa dad cakap ni…? Sungguh tidak masuk akal… 🙄

“ada-ada saja you this, dad…” saya cakap sama dad… “apa salah visiting my fiancée’s family…? ”

“bukan salah visiting, tapi tengoklah what are we wearing...” mom lagi membebel…

“mom, even you wear plastic sampah pun, you will still look classy and beautiful..” saya bilang sambil ketawa kecil…

“kau tengok bah your son, ling..!” deii, macam budak-budak oh mom and dad ni… whining saja dari tadi...

“bah, comelah..” saya mematikan engine kereta dan keluar dari dalam kereta…

Sejujurnya… saya tidak tau kenapa saya balik sini only just after a few hours later…

I looked at my watch… 8.20pm… still a decent time to sit and chat with the Bestians… apa yang mau chat about?

Ah, asal saya ternampak muka si little criminal cukuplah…

Wait… and again, chat with the Bestians…? Few months ago, you didn’t even want to look at any Bestians let alone chat or talk to them…

As we entered the main entrance of Bestian Residence, we were welcomed by hmmm… Hudson… terkejut saya Hudson yang menyambut kami dan bukan pembantu dorang…

but actually the more I get to know the Bestians, I realized they are very humble and down-to-earth people… let’s just think about the good side of them for now, memandangkan tunangan saya is a Bestian…

“Tuan Hakim…” Hudson tersengih… “what a surprise…”

“Surprise…?” dad mengulang kata-kata Hudson, lalu menoleh ke arah saya..

“Tan Sri, Puan Sri… come in..” Hudson menjemput masuk… “London… come come... Tuan...”

Saya mula melangkah masuk, tapi langkah saya terhenti apabila saya terdengar bunyi airplane…

Seakan mau berlepas… an airplane taking off…?!

Panic terus saya… saya berlari ke arah the helipad…
