It was roughly two weeks before the school holidays started, when I received a phone called from Soraya around 3.20pm. I still remember, it was on Wednesday.
"Eh, ni Soraya, apa pulak dia nak, kan ari ni dia ada pottery class and supposed to finish at 5pm. Janganlah pulak suruh ambik sekarang, memang tak boleh, papa pulak ada meeting. Dah sudah ... cam mana ni yek", I was talking to myself.
"Hello, darling ...", tak sempat nak abih cakappun, dia dah sampuk, excited sangat kot,
"Mummy, mummy, I got 100 for maths assesment, 100 mummy".
"What, 100, are you sure," macam tak caya je I dengar.
"Why, you don't believe me aaahhh, never mind aahh, I call papa, makmok and mimi already". "Ok, ok, see ... I told you, bukannya you tak pandai, pandai, nanti I tengok paper. You je yang selalu gopoh," I cakap kat dia.
"Ok mummy, bye". Amboi, takda salam apapun, terus letak phone.
Rupanyer bukan I sorang je tak caya, Hubby pun tak caya juga. Bukan apa, all these while nak cecah 70 pun susah, inikan pulak shoot up terus 100. According to hubby, berbaloilah tuition sampai RM600 sebulan dan harap2 biarlah dia dapat maintain. Again, for me Soraya bukannya tak pandai, pandai, tapi weakness dia ... dia gopoh je, semua nak cepat habih. Kalau tengok balik maths papers dia yang dulu-dulu, semuanya careless mistake, jawapan patut 66, dia buat 56 atau 76... kan ke dah wasted satu markah.
So, jangan underestimate anak-anak. Contohnya, tengok anak dara I. I sendiri tak caya ...
Keep it up, Soraya. I know you can do it.
