Diary of a Temporary Single (but Not available) Supermom

24/10/2008

Last night, the three of us slept with hubby’s unwashed kain pelekat and his white pagoda shirt. Just to get ourselves to sleep and pretending that he’s around. We slept early….not in the mood to watch any shows on tv. I guess I dozed off at around 945pm after cleaning up some space in my handphone’s Inbox and reading all messages from hubby before he left.

It wasn’t a smooth sleep. I woke up at 1030…for nothing.

130 am ..received a text message from him

Read : I’ve arrived and currently queuing at the immigration. Gud nite and luv u all.

Alhamdullilah….he has arrived safely. I know their next journey is heading towards Mekah to perform Umrah. I went back to sleep…but woke up every now and then…..finally at 6.00 I woke up to perform Subuh prayer. And here I am writing till now.

Just for the record.. I’m taking medical leave today…..nope…not sick…but just unstable emotions. (is there such term?)

I guess…to calm my ‘chaotic’ hormones… I need to go on a shopping therapy alone.

Yeah..there’s a METROJAYA warehouse sale today. =)

Love u sayang..will be waiting for ur next sms……


130 pm…I received another text message from hubby dearest. He informed that they have completed Umrah after subuh Mekah time. And will depart to Madinah after Friday prayers. And he reminded me to inform Mak (Mom-In-Law) of his latest update.

Will do honey..tried calling her just now…but no one picked up. Will try again after this.

8.45 pm- everybody was already in bed. Amir’s battery ‘konged’ quite early tonite. Perhaps he was so tired due to his ‘busy’ schedule. In addition, he took his nap for just 15 mins so that explains why. Apai…as usual… didn’t stop asking me this and that…sometimes I felt bad sebab kekadang malas nak layan dia pok pek pok pek. But I know its not good if I tak layan dia cakap. I was surprised when he suddenly said..

“ Apai nak mintak maaf kat papa”

“Haaa?? Why?”
“Sebab Apai noti kat Papa”.

“ Oh..ok…takpelah nanti bila papa call Apai cakap kat Papa k?”

I continued to clean the bathroom. He came to me again….and whispered at my ears

“ Apai mintak maaf”

In my heart….leeehhh apahal plak budak ni asyik nak mintak maaf je ni.

“ Ok sayang…mama pun nak mintak maaf kat Apai…if mama ada marah2( memang banyak pun..heheheh) apai k. Just for your info… mama marah bukan sebab mama tak sayang… tapi sebab …mama SAYANG sangat kat Apai… tau…”

“OK..”

While I was getting ready to sleep …after taking flu medication…( baru 9.15pm…haiihh….memang tak terusik la Astro sepanjang hubby tak de ni..)…Apai said,

“Mama…rindu sangat-sangat la kat papa…...apai rasa tak boleh tunggu la lama2 4 papa to come home….”

“Apai sabar la..nanti tak lama lagi Papa balik laaa”


“Mama ..jom tgk gambar papa..”

After looking again-and again and his papa’s pics….I told him to sleep.

And seconds later…. I fell into a very deep sleep…(sebab ubat)

But as I was enjoying my sleep…tetibe the phone rang…..It was Kakak…(my eldest sister who is also holding the same status as I am…”temporary single super-mom” sebab hubby went to Bali ..but notfor long..in a few days time..he’ll be back. And while he’s away…she and my neph checked in at mom’s)

“ Siata….vat are u doing?”

“errrm sleeping..” , I answerd..dengan penuh mamainye.

“ Oh..guess what… Ira (my youngest sis who is 17) got kutu..hehehhe”

“Huhhh? Oh really…ok…”, I said with my eyes closed..mengantuk sgt.

“Oklah..are u coming 2morrow? Cause I got work and my son’s gonna be lonely if Apai takde”

“ok..I’ll come in the morning..”

“Ok”
“bye..”, and I hung up.

Then around 11ish …got sms from hubby..yeayy!!!

Tapi masih dalam keadaan mengantuk…I tried so hard to read the text with eyes half open..

He said.. he’s on the way to Madinah..and it’s gonna be a long journey…he’ll update upon arrival at Madinah.

Luv u hubby……take care.

Oh ya.. I forgot to mention that for my retail therapy, I spent almost 300 bucks…on what…? I pun tak sure..hehehe it felt like I was hypnotized during the therapy. Oh well..just a few items for myself and the rest for the house…..

P/s: Hubby.if u’r reading this…don’t worry…I did not over spend and I paid my credit card bills already….=).
