Men's talk..and girls' talk..

I was at work..got dozens of papers and colorings to do.. but still my ears captured a few words from my other colleagues who were chattin' over their marriages..and life..and so forth..

But suddenly, someone brought up one interesting topic..I was not sure whether it was purposely brought up for fun, but i was a bit disturbed by a few statements..

"Sorrylah aku nak tolong-tolong bini aku...mau geng-geng aku kata aku darai-takut bini.." one man boasted.

Whoaa..that was harsh..!

Some made a good laugh out of it. But the girls were still there to fight back.

"Pegi la kawin ngan geng tu.. kalau dah takut geng gelak..!" one girl got tense.

"Apa pulak.. dah jadi pompuan tu.. buat la gheja.. kata dah kawen... takkan nak suruh laki buat gheja dapoq kot.." the guy blast back. "apa la orang pompuan moden la ni.. dah senang nak senang lagi...dulu-dulu zaman mak aku buat gheja jaga anak patblas lima blas orang rilek jaaa..."

And the guys went laughing.. saja la tu..just to heat up the scene..

"Bukan 'suruh'... orang kata 'tolonggg..' . Mintak tolong pun takkan jatuh pride kottt...dulu masa becinta beriya tunjuk gentleman..."

The mouth war went on..both sides tak nak ngalah.

I went into their partition, to get myself a stapler.

"Hah..ni apa cerita bising sangat ni...?" I simply pretended tak tau apa2...Hehehe..

"Hah..intann..kita tanya orang tak kawen lagi ni.. orang laki ni time bercinta, bukan main lagi gentleman kan?..suruh buat apa pun sanggup.. dah kawen nanti.. nak angkat pinggan sebijik pun malu. tu dak lagi mintak tolong sidai kain ka.. konon-konon tak reti.. kan?" one sister claimed..

"Hee...kalau kita sakit nak mati, nak mintak tolong suap air pun malu jugak gamaknya.." another girl responded.

"Apa yang malu pun tak tau lah.. kalau dah malu sangat.. baik tayah kawen!" another cynical statement went out.

"Ooo..cerita angkat kainn...." I smiled.

On my way out.. I simply said..

"Kalau intan lah...intan tak kisah kalau husband intan nak buat intan macam hamba sekali pun..." a few men smiled. Nanti dulu..lom habis ayat lagi... ingat kita nak masuk geng diorang la tuu...

"Tapii.. tu kalau dia yang jadi soul-and the only provider dalam rumah tu.Makan-pakai-belanja sekolah-rumah semua dia sorang yang provide....logiklah kalau dia tak tolong bini dia... dia memang kerja cari duit..."

"TAPIIIIIII... kalau dia expect wife dia tolong cari duit sama sama... nak bayar rumah, makan, keta semua kena campur duit bini..pastu malu pulak nak tolong keja bini sikit2.. tuuuu tak tau lah... tak malu pulak kan pakai duit bini...? hehehhee...."

I knew what i said was somehow EVIL.. sebab a few good men were tersipu2 kat situ.. No.. it wasn't my intention nak 'sound direct' kat those guys. But that was only my opinion on whatever they have said moments before.

If they want to compare women zaman dulu ngan sekarang.. toksah cerita la.. dulu macam mana.. sekarang ni macam mana.. sebab for me.. I think that women semua don't really mind helping their husbands, so that life diorang will be a bit better.. sebab we all know ngan gaji limited macam sekarang ni..nak hidup kat KL ni memang sesak laa...But above all.. i'm not saying that women yang provide semua..no... tapi sampai buat statement 'MALU' nak exposekan to public that they sometimes do house chores - was a bit ungrateful to all the wives. Even myself pun will get tense if I was treated like that..

Hmm.. one good issue nak tanya mon cher malam ni...

Intann : One sister-colleague said.. "takpelah.. kalau diorang malu nak tolong kita.. nak aprreciate kita..kita carilah sapa2 yang boleh tolong kita...." hehe... that wouldn't help sis! Way to go everybody..! good luck with all your spouses..
