Sensitive and Angry
Ghost
There is a
saying that people must be careful and be sensitivity do what you say or do to
the supernatural entities. My late grandmother had a saying that, when we were
kids, it is important to ask for permission being simply peeing etc. away especially
when outdoors (like most kids…even
adults, anywhere is good enough yeah!).
Ira was
travelling to her house in Melaka after spending a few days at a relative’s
house in Kedah. She was with her husband who was driving, her mother, sister
and her three kids. On the way, the kids have to stop for “pee breaks” and
food. So they parked their car at one of the rest stop, do their stuff and also
give the adults a break.
Ira
did not follow her family when they went for their lunch but instead waited for
the rest at a partially covered shed near their car. She was with her youngest
daughter, Mina who was 4 years old, who was in a bad-tempered and difficult
mood…(…manja-lah-spoilt little girl).
Rest Stop area in
Malaysi
Ira was busy sitting at the bench clearing her baggage whereas Mina was sitting beside her, playing with her toys. When Mina said in a childish angry voice, “Leave my toys alone”. Ira was busy with her luggage, and thought it was only Mina’s imaginary friend, she said jokingly, “Yes, leave Mina’s toys alone!” Later, Ira joked about Mina’s imaginary friend to her family.
When they
finally got back to Melaka, they unpacked their luggage from their 2 day stay
in Kedah. They had a simple dinner meal and finally got the kids to bed. Her husband
wanted to watch the football in the TV (soccer
matches, EPL…hooray!)
Ida was
tired, with the travelling back from Kedah, and after she got the kids to go to
bed, she decided to go to retire herself. As she was about to sleep and there
was a strong gust of wind from her bedroom window, she suddenly felt her throat
being strangle her neck and she could not breathe. She gasped and screamed,
with her hands firmly about her throat, trying desperately to free herself.
With the commotion caused, her husband and Ira’s
mother rushed into Ira’s bedroom. Her husband asked her what was wrong,
confused that Ira’s hands were wrapped in her throat. Her mother who was
holding Ira about her shoulders, suddenly realized what was going on and she
pleaded, “Sorry…sorry…I am an old woman and I am truly sorry…sorry… on behalf
of my daughter
All of
sudden Ira was alright just gasping for air and Ira’s mother and husband turned
to say,”…thank so much…” There was a gust of wind blowing the curtain away from
the window, that is from the inside of the room towards the outside. They look
at Ira at her angry welts on her neck, had full finger marks!
