Who's Missing Who?

'How long Ayah?', tanya Adik dengan menunjuk muka yang sedih.
'Maybe two weeks', jawab aku sambil menyusun kertas kerja yang bertimbun.
'So long', jawab Faim pula.
'Not long la.. you will only feel it so long if you are naughty', aku mengusik Faim.

'Are you looking forward, Ayah...', tanya Naim.
'Yes, I am looking forward to having roti canai and teh tarik with Atuk', kata aku.
'Oh I was asking whether you will be looking forward to come back and see us here', jawab Adik.

'Of course I am. Even before I leave. I will miss all of you', kata aku.
'I am not sure whether all of you would miss me', tambah aku lagi.
'Off course we will miss you', jawab Adik dan Faim serentak.

Aku pandang ke Ibu. Ibu hanya diam menyusun baju ke dalam beg.
