The Wood : Part 5


   When Stryber suddenly stood upright, fear gripped me. I felt for the knife on the table. But it turned and went out of the house. I saw it sniffed and circled a tree. The tree, which bore odd-looking fruits the size of football, was located on the left side of the house. It was just a small tree and I can easily reached for the fruits. I picked two, curious to know what's inside the coarse brown skin. Maybe Stryber would eat it. Next to it I saw, to my amazement, a biscuit tree! Well, not biscuit, really, more like a tidbits tree. It was really amazing, who had ever seen snacks grow on a tree before? The smooth, soft skin was transparent, almost like a plastic wrapper, which allowed me to see what's inside. It looked heavenly! Egg tarts, chocolates, sweets...my, my, what a feast we're going to have! I picked several of them to put inside the jars I found in one of the kitchen cupboard.

   I tried to hack open the 'football' fruit. One swing of the knife and the skin fell aside to reveal what's inside. Immediately Stryber sprang to my side. I looked and saw that the fruit contained meat! Laughing aloud, I understood then why Stryber was so attracted to it. I put those meat on a plate and then preceeded to open the next one. Shaking my head I muttered, "Will I cease to wonder? Now will there be a salt and sugar tree too?" I tried scouring the kitchen more thoroughly and finally I found them, sealed tightly in containers. 

   Nevertheless, I succeeded in making a satisfying 'bruncher' - breakfast plus lunch plus dinner. I was ravenous! I tucked in like a person who hadn't eaten for ten years!, Later I was lying on the sofa, contented but quite ashamed of the unladylike way I had gobbled up the whole pot. I bet Stryber was ashamed of me too. Hah. He was lying on the rug, satisfied with his dinner. The warm glow of the fireplace and a tired body soon drew me to sleep. I could still hear the music of the forest, accompanying me to slumberland.

   Before long I began to dream. I dreamt that I was in the hospital and my friend Jill was sitting next to my bed. I saw the situation as if I am another person in the room. I inched nearer to get a better look. What a state I was in! Covered in bandages, hooked up to the machine, IV bag...surely I didn't need that? How bad was my condition actually? It was so weird. This is considered a nightmare! I suddenly wanted to be inside that sick body. You know, just to get a taste of how it feels. Is it possible to do that in a dream? What a stupid feeling, who wanted to try feeling sick anyway? But maybe I could tell Stryber all about it during breakfast.

   I seeped, or dissolved, or whatever it is, into the body, and I immediately felt cold. I shuddered and instinctively knew that something wasn't right. I was wriggling inside, trying to find the perfect fit in the body so that I wouldn't be so uncomfortable like this. But then I decided that it was no use and after all, it's a dream and honestly, I was starting to dislike it. I struggled with all my strength to break free again. It was terribly painful, and it struck me that maybe this is how it feels in the sick body. I hate the uneasiness that lurked in every part of it. I felt stiff and hot. I didn't feel belonged. I yearned to be back in the cottage, lying in the coolness of the night. I want to stop this really, really bad nightmare! If only I could wake up. God,  I prayed, I don't want to be stuck in a time, at a place, that is unreal. I can't believe I'm caught in this, I thought. My strength was fading away...

   Just as I was beginning to lose hope, so sure that I was trapped forever...a firm grip on my hand pulled me back to the present. Stryber! My eyes snapped open. I saw Jill bending over me with a panicked look. Then I saw the concerned doctor and the nurse. Nobody else. My strained eyes searched the room, but everything was white and cream under the bright light. I didn't see any black stripes. I couldn't see Stryber and I was not at the cottage. I was not even in the wood. So, it's true...I was really stuck in the dream. Recognizing defeat, and feeling so weak and thoroughly confused, I drifted into sleep, determined to go back to the cottage again if I could 'dream' about it. I swore I would! Surrendering does not necessarily means defeat, right? I would get back to Stryber.

   Alas, I didn't. I was awake once again to find myself still in the same room, the same hospital ward, Jill by my side. I felt betrayed. Jill was in this! In some kind of conspiracy to keep me from the wood. Why? Because I didn't deliver Mrs Faig's eggs? I was going insane. Is there some kind of witchery? What else could have done this?

The Wood : Part 4

Continued from The Wood : Part 1, The Wood : Part 2 and The Wood : Part 3


   So I rose and began to walk slowly. It rose, too. I thought that it was going to pounce and I waited for the worst to happen, breaking in cold sweat. But it didn't, so I made a move, and the next, and the next, and the tiger followed me closely. Finally I felt at ease when it didn't harm me. I even tried to pat its head. When it didn't bite my hand or reacted aggresively, I knew that I've got a companion in the isolated forest.

   My stomach felt sucked in. By then I knew that I was really starving. Just then i caught sight of a cottage. My heart leaped with joy and I was smiling from ear to ear. "Come on!" I said to Stryber the tiger. Yes, that's the name I gave him. It bounded along the path beside me as I sped towards the cottage. When we reached the gate, I suddenly didn't know what to do. And I found out that the road ended there instead of a bend as I had predicted. Although I called out a few times, no one answered. I was convinced that I should go into the house because there was nowhere else for me to go.

   I pushed the creaking gate. It was not locked. Why didn't the owner oil the hinge? It sounded terribly creepy. Going up to knock on the door, I stayed near Stryber all the time. No one opened the door. I twisted the knob. It was not locked too. I debated with myself whether to go in or not. What's the worst that can happen? After all Stryber was with me. It will kind of be like Goldilocks and the three bears, won't it, only I didn't have golden locks. Oh well, who cares?

   When I got in, I was astounded. The furniture were covered with white cloths and everything was so dusty. It's clear that no one had lived in the house for quite some time. "Let's stay here, Stryber. At least for now." Stryber just watched as I pulled off the covering on the furniture and coughed when dust filled the air. I had to go out of the house for a while until the dust settled. I discovered where the kitchen was and that there was only one bedroom. The toilet was near the kitchen, on the northeast corner. It's an old-fashioned house, but there's a fridge and an old stove. I found the broom and as I swept away the dust, my stomach suddenly growled with hunger. I had forgotten how hungry I was in my excitement of exploring the house. I hurried to the kitchen and found where the cutlery and cooking utensils were in the kitchen cupboard. But where could I get the food? The thought hit me so suddenly. I looked out of the kitchen window, hoping to spot any edible plant or fruit. To my delight, I saw that there were many kinds of it growing all over in the garden. No wonder, since there's nobody to take care of them. Except, maybe, magic? I opened the kitchen door that led into the backyard. It was quite large. I brought with me a basket to put in all the vegetables. Stryber followed behind as I plucked, picked and dug potatoes, carrots, beans, radishes, toamtoes, cabbages...before long my basket was full and I went to have two more picking trips. I put all of them in the fridge. Stryber sniffed at the basket. 'What a cat!' I smiled to myself. Then I remembered. He must eat meat! Where am I going to find it? Salt, spices...oh...I sat on the chair with resignation. I turned to Stryber. "Stryber, can you bear eating vegetables just like that everyday? Are you going to hunt for your own food or do I have to prepare it for you? Hey, I'm not your food, right?" He just looked at me with inquiring eyes. I just hoped that he didn't suddenly decided to have me for dinner!

Cerita Keanak-anakan : Tolong Selamatkan Mereka!

    Malik memerhati dari celah pokok sambil memegang kemas pistolnya. Dia mencapai walkie-talkie yang terselit di pinggang.
"Tuan, apa yang harus saya lakukan sekarang?"
    Tiada jawapan. Berkerut dahi Malik menunggu. "Tuan! Saya ulang, keadaan tebusan adalah tidak berapa baik. Saya bimbang jika dibiarkan lebih lama lagi, kita akan terlambat dan mereka akan mati. Arahan seterusnya, tuan!" Walkie-talkie masih senyap. Malik mula tidak senang duduk. Kenapa Mejar Hamdan senyap?

   Di depan matanya kini ada beribu tebusan yang terbaring lemah dan tidak mampu bergerak. Berulang kali mereka dipijak dengan kejamnya oleh pengganas-pengganas tersebut. Tidak cukup dengan itu, kadangkala mereka diludah pula. Seorang pun daripada mereka tidak berani bersuara. Mereka hanya mampu membiarkan. Makanan dan air langsung tidak diberikan. Para tebusan cuma berpeluang minum jika hujan turun. Walaupun dengan keadaan mereka dibiarkan kesejukan dan basah dalam hujan, mereka dapat minum sepuas-puasnya dan terlepas daripada seksaan pengganas buat seketika.

   Malik semakin geram melihat beberapa pengganas yang tidak berperikemanusian membunuh dan mengerat-ngerat beberapa tebusan yang ada. Tidak!!! Hatinya menjerit. Semangat perjuangan dan belas kasihannya membara. Dia memutuskan untuk mengambil tindakan sendiri tanpa menunggu arahan pihak atasan. Kalau asyik tunggu, ribuan nyawa akan terkorban dulu!
"Tuan, saya akan cuba menyelinap masuk ke kem sasaran. Beberapa tebusan telah dibunuh. Saya tak boleh biarkan sahaja, tuan! Tak kisahla tuan nak kata apa!"
   Dengan terhendap-hendap ala Hidden Tiger Crouching Dragon Malik berjaya membolosi pertahanan pihak pengganas dengan mudah. Lantas dia mendapatkan tebusan yang terdekat dengannya. "Encik, encik tak apa-apa? Boleh bangun tak?" Tebusan tersebut terkulai layu tidak menjawab. Tiba-tiba dua orang pengganas muncul. Dengan sepantas kilat Malik menembak.

   Hah??! Pengganas-pengganas tersebut terus berlalu tanpa cedera sedikit pun. Malik terduduk. Siapakah mereka ini? Macam orang kebal, sedikit pun tidak lut senjata. Nasib baik mereka tidak sedar kehadirannya di situ. Kedudukannya agak terlindung di balik semak, tambahan pula dia telah memasang silencer pada pistolnya. Mereka terus berjalan seolah-olah tidak terkena langsung peluru. Mustahil! Memang aku tembak tadi. Dia merenung kelongsong peluru kosong di sisinya. Pengganas ni alien ke apa?
" Hoi, kamu yang di balik semak! Buat apa tu?! Keluar!"
    Alamak, exposed! Malik bingkas bangun dan segera meluru ke dalam hutan semula. Terdengar hingar-bingar suara orang mengejarnya. Aku tidak boleh tertangkap! Matilah aku kalau tertangkap! Nak lawan dengan hape?! Kalau tembak dengan pistol pun tak ada kesan...

   Akhirnya Malik sampai ke tepi jalanraya. Tanpa teragak-agak dia melintas dan terus berlari ke sebuah bangunan tidak jauh dari situ.
"Tuan! Tolong selamatkan mereka, tuan! Pengganas tu alien, tuan! Saya tembak tak mati, saya-....!"
"Bertenang, Malik! Kamu cakap apa ni? Tarik nafas betul-betul dulu."
"Takde masa nak tarik nafas, tuan! Mereka-"
   Malik tarik nafas.
"-mereka seksa tebusan tu, tuan! Mereka pijak-pijak, ludah dan tak bagi makan minum pun. Kita kena bertindak sekarang sebelum semuanya mati dibunuh!"
"Mana tebusan tu? Tunjukkan pada saya, Malik."
   Malik membawa Mejar Hamdan ke tempat para tebusan tadi berada. "Malik, mana tebusan?" Malik menuding jari.
"Tu, tuan!"
   Mejar Hamdan geleng kepala. Dia membuat isyarat memanggil dua orang attendan yang kelihatan tercari-cari. Kemudian dia berpaling menghadap Malik semula. "Malik, kamu tahu tak yang kamu tunjuk tu apa?" Mendengar soalan itu, Malik kehairanan.
"Tebusan la, tuan..."
"Itu kan rumput. Memang padan  la orang pijak-pijak pun, tak bagi makan minum, ludah...err, ludah?? Siapa yang ludah tu! Kamu kene ingat kat sini tak boleh meludah sebarangan. Ingat tu, Malik."
    Dua orang attendan yang dipanggil tadi pun sampai dengan termengah-mengah. "Maafkan kami Dr. Hamdan, Malik larikan diri dari biliknya tadi. Kami tak sempat nak kejar, puas kami cari tadi rupanya menyorok balik semak." Dr. Hamdan menggangguk dengan serius.
"Pastikan tidak berulang lagi. Pesakit jiwa ni kene jaga elok-elok, nanti jika berlaku kejadian yang tidak diingini kita yang akan dipersalahkan. Macam Malik ni, rumput dia kata tebusan. Kamu ni pulak dia kata pengganas. Siap dia kata tembak kamu lagi. Nasib baik pistol air, kalau dia pegang pisau?? Dah, bawa dia masuk."
    Malik tersengih-sengih. "Rumput eh, tuan....hehehe....."

The Wood : Part 3


   Now, how can I climb the tree? I didn't think, I just jumped and something propelled me up and forward. Lo and behold, I was up in the air! I honestly didn't know I could do that. Something prompted me. The small voice? Instinct? It's just as though I knew that it was possible. What a great feeling, being able to fly. I felt that my body was as light as feather!

   It was already fully night time by the time I settled down in the medium-sized tree house. I lied in it, snug and comfortable although I bumped my forehead while trying to scramble in just now. The branches that formed the floor were surprisingly soft. I didn't need a mattress or a blanket. The air was quite warm. The full moon gave sufficient light for me to see everything around me. Not everything, really. But I did get startled when I saw an owl on the tree across, blinking its round eyes. Then I was lulled into a deep slumber by the seemingly never ending lullaby of the forest...

   When I woke up, the sun had not yet risen fully. I sat on the edge of the tree house with my feet dangling, listening to the cheerful morning sound. Then I jumped to the ground. More like floated, actually. I still marveled at the way I half flew just now when I started my journey again. I knew that eventually I would reach a place that would be the end of my journey and the place would surely be the most magical of all the things that I had encountered. The eagerness made me feel like bursting with energy. I was practically skipping along the path. After about half an hour walking, I was overcame with hunger. I realized that I haven't eaten since yesterday evening! And not a single drop of water had entered my mouth either.

   While walking I looked around, looking for something to eat. I saw some berries, but I dared not eat them for fear that they were poisonous. I was hungrier and thirstier by each passing minute. At last I couldn't stand it anymore and stopped to rest under a shady tree. I fell asleep soon after, dreaming about food.

   I had no idea how long I slept. I woke up when I felt something tickling my face. When I opened my eyes, what a shock I got! A weird tiger-like creature was sniffing my face! It has white fur with grey stripes. I froze in fear, thinking that I was finished. I am some animal's dinner now and it would serve me right for being overly adventurous! But no, the beast didn't hurt me or eat me. It just sat there staring at me. I stared back. For a long time we just looked at each other. It seemed like eternity before I decided that maybe, just maybe, the animal was tame. It seemed to be...it's acting like a pet cat. Course, it was some kind of cat! Err... really huge cat, though...

Battle With Betrayal

 The pain of betrayal
Grips like hellfire
Endless tears in your heart
Silent words nobody hears
The darkness of night pulls you down
And alone you drown
The sun saves you each day
But forever it can never stay
Deep inside you could hear a sound
A faint cry for help
But no one is around
And lies come after lies
All you've seen and believe in
Illusions made for you
They shatters, and your little world crumbles
Truth does make you stronger
But it also makes you colder
Why wouldn't it be
When you lost something you protected with such ferocity
Something you thought would never leave you
Even when the whole world walks out on you
You kneel in desperation
Grasping blindly for fragments of truth
Piercing your numb fingers mercilessly
You look up at the sky
Hoping to see the sun
Just to realize that the storm is coming
In defeat you lay on the ground
Washed in sorrow
Helplessly uttering no sound
No sound at all.

Dialogue of Hansel And Gretel : Tragic Version

 
Gretel was forced to obey the evil witch's orders. She didn't have the courage to escape nor fight. She's helpless, she couldn't help Hansel. She felt that she had failed him and could only watch, pleading in vain as the witch, who had clear eye vision and was very hard to fool, fatten Hansel up for her big feast!
Gretel :   On this chilly night I'm missing you.
                Such a beautiful yet tragic piece of my life.
                What's in order for us to live this way?
Hansel :  I wonder.
                Are you going to be someone
                Who's not gonna be there during my final days?
Gretel :   Will you be leaving much, much sooner than that?
Hansel :  Counting your tears now.
Gretel :   Your expectations need someone better to fit them.
                Your happiness is out of reach for me.
                You deserve a fantasy, cos the reality that I gave you broke your heart.
Hansel :  The basket of smiles I made you were quick to go with the wind.
Gretel :   Bad storm never loses our scent.
               A small drop of our happiness to it
               Is like a small drop of blood to a shark
Hansel :  How are you going to put up with this your entire life?
Gretel :   I will be watching our time now
               Cos I won't be doing much of that when you're gone
               For now, I will still be watching time, etched with what we had make of us..

Ya adik-adik, ini kisah Hansel dan Gretel versi tragis yang manggis di mana Gretel tidak mampu menyelamatkan Hansel dari dimakan oleh ahli sihir tua yang jahat. Dialogue di atas jika disatukan sebenarnya adalah sesuatu yang A.Samad Said tulis dengan tidak terkira banyaknya : sajak. 

Amaran (huh?)/Disclaimer : Tiada niat ingin menyaingi tokoh sasterawan agung ini, jauh sekali berlakon di depan cermin dengan janggut putih sambil mengungkapkan sajak-sajaknya.

Dialog itu secara meleret-leretnya adalah sebenarnya ini :-

Gayah   :  Di malam yang dingin dan sunyi ini aku merindui kamu.
                  Kehadiran kamu dalam hidup aku adalah sesuatu yang indah tapi tragik.
                  Apakah sebabnya hidup kita begini?
Herman :  Aku terpikir...
                  Adakah kamu akan jadi salah seorang yang tidak di sisi aku
                  Dalam hari-hari akhir aku?
                  (Mungkin kerana telah pergi jauh, atau pergi selama-lamanya.)
Gayah   :  Adakah kamu akan pergi lebih awal dari saat tibanya hari-hari seperti itu?
                  (Tidak sempat hidup lama untuk menunggu.)
                  *mengalirkan air mata yang berkilauan di bawah cahaya rembulan*
                  *lolongan serigala*
Herman :  Aku mengira butir airmata kamu, Gayah.
                   (Telah banyak kamu menangis untuk aku.)
Gayah   :  Kamu perlukan seorang yang lebih baik, Herman.
                  Seseorang yang mampu menyelamatkan kamu.
                  Aku tidak mampu menggapai kebahagiaan untuk kamu.
                  Kamu perlukan sebuah fantasi yang tidak menyakitkan...
                  Kerana realiti yang aku berikan melukakan hati kamu.
Herman :  Aku memujuk dan buatkan kamu tersenyum sebakul banyaknya, Gayah.
                  Tapi sekejap sahaja sudah hilang dibawa angin.
Gayah   :  Mendung ribut mengejar kita bagaikan anjing polis membau penjenayah.
                  Secebis kegembiraan yang kita rasai kepadanya
                  Adalah seperti setitis darah pada jerung di lautan.
                  Sekejap sahaja terkesan, sepantas kilat dibaham mangsanya.
Herman :  Mampukah kamu hidup dengan semua ini sepanjang hayat kamu?
Gayah   :  Aku akan mengawasi masa sekarang.
                  Kerana aku tidak akan berbuat begitu lagi setelah kamu pergi.
                  Buat masa yang kita ada sekarang, aku akan terus memerhati
                  Masa mengukir kenangan dengan apa yang kita ada.

                  *Ahli sihir datang*
                  *Tengok Herman atas bawah, atas bawah sambil angguk-angguk*
                  *Tuang kicap, tabur bawang goreng, makan*
                  *Gayah meraung-raung*
                  *Ahli sihir berpaling, dengan mata merah menyala
                     Menuding jari berkuku panjang sedepa
                     Sambil berkata...*
             
                  "YOU'RE NEXT, Gayah!"

The Wood : Part 2

Continued from The Wood : Part 1


   All of a sudden, a small voice inside me asked, What are you doing? Are you nuts?! I stopped walking and turned abruptly towards the direction that I came from. The entrance was still there, though it looked a bit blurry from the spot where I was standing. I could still go back if I wanted to. I stood there, weighing my options. I looked again. The path to the entrance seemed dark, far, uninviting...boring. I looked around me. The birds, the flowers, the animals...all of it formed a warm place that were surely exciting and could offered a lot more. The trail that led to the place that would mark the end of my journey, though unsure I was of how it would appear to be, seemed bigger and brighter. Warmer and welcoming. I didn't realized a smile had formed on my lips when I said, Yes, I am crazy, and resumed my journey. I didn't look back again, and the small voice that bugged me earlier shut itself up the moment I started walking again. Since then also, there was never an ounce of worry in me that I'm venturing into the unknown and was leaving a place so familiar to me, a place where I belong, a place where I should be.

   The sky's getting darker. I knew this because the light in the wood was dimmer and I saw the colours of sunset peeking through the leaves above. Fireflies came out of nowhere and brightened the surrounding. It was as if their presence there was to provide my eyes with better sight. The music can still be heard. I was wondering where to spend the night, as I didn't meet anyone at all or saw any cottage or hut. I was tired and sleepy. I hadn't eaten, either. I figured food could wait, I needed sleep. Mu eyelids were so heavy I felt that I could sleep while walking.

   Finally I came upon a huge tree. I didn't recognize what tree it was because it was so peculiar. A kind of tree house had been built on it, but not by any human hand as far as I could tell. It was made of the tree branches, which intertwined and wove themselves to form the wall and the roof. There was only three sides of the wall, leaving an opening. Judging from the size I guess I could sleep in it. Besides, there's nobody around and I didn't know if it belongs to anybody.

The Wood : Part 1

   I was mystified, really, really intrigued. The beginning of the path into the wood lay in front of me, beckoning me to enter. I could see a bit of the path, winding a little way off into the lush jungle. I questioned myself over and over again...am I going in or not? I decided that exploring it a bit wouldn't do me harm. I'll stay near the edge of the wood and wouldn't stray off the path. Besides, it didn't seem to be dangerous.

   Ten yards into the jungle, I suddenly became enchanted by the surrounding. I saw many kind of flowers, even the type that were not supposed to be there. Buttercups, bluebells, baby's breaths, roses, sunflowers, daffodils...I didn't see them earlier from outside the wood. Standing out there just now, I saw only the path. Everything else was not clear, hidden among the shadow. But inside there, I could see literally everything. I don't know, as though the sunlight suddenly found its way through the thick canopy of trees. The squirrels watched me carefully from among the branches and the rabbits scampered across the path as I walked on, truly engrossed in discovering what else that lay ahead in the jungle.

   I didn't forget the farm that I'm supposed to return to. I didn't forget the basket of eggs I'm supposed to deliver to Mrs Faig. But still I followed the path, deeper and deeper into the wood. Somehow I didn't worry about the consequences, feeling that I'll be perfectly safe. I continued with ease, noticing the fluttering butterflies and all the flowers that seemed to be prettier with each step I took. And there's another thing. There's music coming from somewhere. I couldn't find the source, it echoed all around and was absolutely harmonious with the quiet surrounding. It was there all the time, though I didn't noticed it at first. The music noted were graceful, beautiful, they complemented each other, they fit with nature. I could make a poem about it, it was that inspirational. I know and could distinguish the songs, but I never knew when a song started or ended, they went on and on with each new song never the same as the last.

Rindu Dalam Penantian


Resah menyapa ibarat hujan
Mengocak tenang di lubuk hati
Arus perasaan deras berpusar
Menggugat empunya yang rindu menanti

Begitulah hatiku mendamba kasihmu
Dalam penantian yang panjang
Adakah tersurat kita bersatu
Ku enggan cinta ini menghilang

Sekuat hatiku inginkan dirimu
Hadirlah sayang ke dalam mimpiku
Temani aku dalam rinduku
Penantian ini hanya untukmu

Fahamkah mereka rasa ini?
Ku ingin kamu sentiasa di sisi
Walau terkadang ia menyeksaku
Namun penantian ini hanya keranamu

Dan bila dirimu bertanya khabar
Ibarat mentari memancar sinar
Hadiahi ku pelangi selepas hujan
Membuatku senyum dalam penantian.
