So, every time the season of holiday came for student like us, each day passed by only to be spend while crumpled in our room watching online drama or playing video games all day long, only to see the sunlight of the day during meals time.
Yet, there is also people like me who still wander around the house during the day because I can't stand spending this golden time to be alone instead of being with my family. However, I have this one rules, or rather said a habit to wake up at 11 a.m. no matter how early I slept the night before. Why? Let me tell you why.
This house consist of 11 original individual. Dad rarely home because he lives with our step mom. Our eldest son is studying at Terengganu. The second son is married and living with his wife family. The golden child of the family is rarely home from Kuching because he always spend even his mid semester break studying. Another four children under me is still going to school from range age of 12 to 6 years old. That leaves only my third brother who recently finished his Diploma from Mukah. He is the first type who I said that spend most of his time in his room during holiday. Me? Like I said, I only came home after 6 months at Kuching.
Now let me tell you the reasons of waking up at 11 a.m. every morning. Why? As you can imagine, home is considered a lonely places. No one is actually home. Living room is a desolate places for us. However, after 11 a.m. then only this house be enlighten with laughter, Because MOM IS HOME. Yes, our beloved mother. She always wake up every morning at 4, send her four children to school everyday at 7 and goes to work at 8, come home at 11.
That's why I always wake up during this hour because life is boring without her. No one is going to be there to make our lunch. No one is there to welcome us from school. No one to spend our afternoon watching movie. Everyday I would tell myself, what could have happened if she were never there? If one day I wake up at 11 and she never come home. Then I finally realized, just how much a mother is needed and just much I love having one.
