What do you hope to achieve in your lifetime?
A Voice
“Ring ring ring” my clock rang continously until I woke up from my sleep. I took a look at the clock , it was 9.00 a.m already- what? I miss my prayer again! It was so frustating because almost every morning I miss my prayer. Without hesitate, I quickly jumped like a spiderman into the corner of my bedroom just to grab my towel and immediately entered the toilet. I took a quick bath and then performed my prayer. As I finished performing my prayer, I got myself prepared neatly and went downstairs. While I went downstairs step by step, I smelled a very delicious smell that came from the kicthen and I saw my beautiful mom was busy cooking for us. As usual for the weekend, my mom would love to cook our family’s favourite dish ever which is Nasi Goreng Kampung with Sambal Belacan and Telur Dadar. For sure the dishes were not complete without the aromatic Teh Tarik that my mom’s handmade. In just a few minutes, the food were ready and all of us began our day with a joyful breakfast.
After we filled up our stomach, I went upstairs and laid down my body on the cushion. I knew it was not so good laying down after eating but who cares.I grabbed the remote control beside me and pressed the switch button to turn on the television. I selected my most favourite channel which is One HD channel and I played the Running Man –one of the most popular variety show in the world- that I had recorded last night. As usual for a teenager like me, I loved to watch Running Man eventhough I had watched the same episode a couple of times. Without I noticed, the two hours just flew by, it was 12.30 already. After that, my parents came to me and asked me wether I wanted to follow them attending my uncle’s wedding or not but I refused to go since I got a ton of homeworks to be done or else I will be in a hot water. So, they just said “it’s okay, nevermind.” They went into the room to get prepared and I continued watching the show. After that, I accompanied my parents towards the door and said goodbye to them. When I closed the door, my phone on the table rang, I saw it was a call from Ali. He invited me to go to the library with him and that time I remembered our class teachr Pn. Aminah had given us an assignment since Ali was the class monitor and I was his assistant. It took a few seconds for me to give an answer but at last I just said “Yes, sure.”
Suddenly, a tiny voice came across my heart. It was myself who spoke to me. Myself asked me – how could you refuse to attend the wedding event with your family but when your friend asked you to go out you just agreed without hesitate?. After that, the voice slowly disappeared. Then, I took my important things especially my laptop and packed it into my bag. Before I stepped out of my house, I called my parents to ask their permission. They allowed me to go out with Ali but they also advised me to take care of myself and told me not to do such a bad thing. So,we went to the presint 9’s library, as we arrived, we chosed the place to seat and took out our things. We began our work. Deep inside my heart, I admitted that it was quite awkward being just between us two. Hence, I started a conversation with him while getting done our assignment. We talked a lot to each other until the work was done. I thought it was going to take a couple of hours to finish the assignment but we finished it earlier. Because of that, we decided to watch a korean movie in my laptop. The movie made the environment more joyful and not bored. Without realising, we stayed at the library for almost 4 hours. It was an unforgettable moment with him.
Right after the movie ended, Ali wanted to sent me back home so we walked together to my house. While walking on the side of the road, the same voice of me came across my heart again, - What have you done, Wani? You went out with a guy? You watched movie with him, just you and him?! You were enjoy every single moment with him? Do you know what you have done was so wrong? ...A lot of questions that my ownself asked me until I could not even answer it. I could not even realise that Ali was talking to me.
“Wani, are you listening to me?” Ali waved at my face.
“Oh, I am so sorry. I did not realise that you were talking to me. I felt blank for awhile.” I said with an unsincere smile.
“ Oh, It is okay. I understand. Nevermind, I leave you here , make sure to take care of yourself on the way, okay? Ali replied.
“Thank you, Ali.” I said.
As I walked towards my house, I kept thinking what myself told me. Those questions still strolling in my head. I wondered why the voice kept came across my heart when I did something wrong. “Argh, forget about it!” I unlocked the door and entered my house.After that, I cleared up my things and went to the kitchen looked for some food to cook. I found a few packets of curry noodles with maggie brand. I took one , opened it up and put it into the boiled water. The noodles was cooked nicely. So, what to wait for, I ate it. “Knock Knock” my parents had arrived. They told me after went to wedding event they did go to IOI citymall, they bought me a very beautiful dress. I was absolutely happy and I thanked them.
“Assalamualaikum Doctor Wani. May I enter your room ?” a nurse in my hospital knocked my door. She just wanted to ask for my signature then she left my room. I was quite suprised as I woke up from my sense, I smiled myself because I refreshed all the past memories when I was a young teenager. The time moved so fast like a blink of an eye. Now, I am 24 years old had became a young doctor. Those days brought back the memories that made me grown up until where I stand right now. When I was growing up, I faced a lot of obstacles that I did not even expected that I could manage to overcome them. Until today, I had became a more matured and useful person. Like before I was a lazy and wasteful person, I was a disobedient child towards my parents, I was not a religious person and my life was full of sin.Plus, I did not even regret of my owndoing. Now and today, I changed myself. Maybe all the voice that always acrossed my heart were a hint from God for me to make me realise and become a better person in future. Hence, I was so grateful that God had given me such incredible experiences that could change me and turned me into a new leaf.
My past days and experiences had taught me to be a good and useful person towards all the people around me and my surrounding. And that was my hope to achieve in my lifetime. I want to be a good person so that I could achieve success in the life and hereafter.
