Special Love

Assalamualaikum.

The only stranger I love in my life is my maid(s). I've been living with maid(s) since I was in year three, up until today. I call them a stranger cuz #1 I know nothing 'bout their backgrounds on the first day they stepped into my house, #2 I can only know their true colors after few months/years working, #3 They're not my flesh blood. Logically, we don't call our new friend as a stranger, we don't call a friend to our friend a stranger, we don't call a driver bus we meet on road as stranger, we don't call makcik-tepi-jalan-jual-sayur we meet by accident as stranger too, no?

Maid(s). The only strangers I love. People who are living with maids have extra people they'd love in life. Other people don't experience this. In fact, they don't have any strangers they'd love in life, don't they?

Living with maids and do things together with 'em is f-f-funn. We can do the house chores together, I can ask 'em to help me when I'm in trouble, ask 'em to play with my hair, ask 'em what they think of my outfits, share with 'em things I have in mind, and and and, get scolded with Umi when something we did weren't right haha -.-

I still remember, when I cried non-stop during my last day of seeing Kak Tira. It was when the whole family sent me off to Puncak Alam. I was sitting beside her at the back seat. Several kilometers reaching Puncak Alam, tears started to come streaming down my face which I cannot help to stop them. I broke the silence in the car with my sedut-hingus-sound cuz hey, I cried badly kott, tipu lar kalau takde hingus keluar sekali -.-
I cried not only to Kak Tira, but to others too.

It would be a date which I never forget. We cannot tolerate any more on you, Kak Liya. She's already back to Indonesia for good and we hope that she'd realize of what she had done. After all the mistakes you had done, the whole family have forgiven you. May Allah forgive you and bless you always. We ain't got no choice but to send you back. If it's hard for you, it's hard for us too. We love you, and we hope to hear good news from you. Please be okay and look at the bright side. Allah is not cruel. He don't put us in pain if it's beyond our strength.



This is for Kak Su, Kak Mar, Kak W (I can't remember her name), Kak Ina, Kak Yuni, Kak Tira and Kak Liya.
You come here as strangers, but go back a sister of mine.

Thanks for all the kindness you've given us. Oh Allah, please bless them, give your forgiveness to them, ease their lives and give good health to them. Aamiinn.




With love, 
Nina
