(i never scanned his baby pic)

My baby brother has grown up. He was this plump puffy eyed baby, bringing sunshine to the family for it finally was a baby boy. He was this baby whom I first learnt to henjut buaian for, sing lullaby for, and loved.

He was this toddler who always listened to me, and still is the obedient up till today =). This toddler who was always the model of choice for the kakaks 'make-up classes' and catwalk show (he seriously was lawa..huhu kasihan).

He was this little kid who always had to bow to the pressure of having bossy pembuli sisters. The kid who never had an answer to the kakaks' mean remarks (if u dont give me that seat in the car u never gonna pass your UPSR!), plastering the clueless innocent look, staring wide glossy eyed into their faces. This kid who'd always followed me into the kitchen, trying to get his hand on whatever task he could, who'd cook me Megi when i didnt (couldnt) fast during Ramadhan. This kid who had always asked for my tomyam-nasi-goreng. The kid who had always tried to make friend with me.

He was this young teenager who never put his necessities before others'. The one who'd returned $10 when Mak handed $20 for monthly pocket money (too much!). The teenager who never wanted a baju raya, what more to ask for one. The one who'd do anything I nicely asked him to (iwan, go wash the dishes PLEASE, iwan go angkat the kain PLEASE) He's this young man, always waited for my lasagna (u want lasagna, so go chop the onions, meat, mushroom, open all the cans bla bla bla). He's this young man so sensitive in the heart he asked me to go dakwah the whole family. He's this young man so soft in the heart, he went to the masjid for Isya and Maghrib jemaah prayer everyday when i persuaded him to. His this young man, still listening to me, he wouldn't hook up with the girl he likes so much, no matter what the girl tells him, because i told him not to. He's this young man who'd always 'bodyguarded' me when I need to go out, people would start giving us this weird look for seeing a heavily hijabbed girl going out with a guy.

Though somewhat 'contaminated' now, thanks to budaya KMB, he is still an innocent baby brother to me. I pray for the greatest something to happen to you, for Him to bless you with His hidayah and join me and the rest in this path. To this young man, who would fly off and lead his adult life soon. He will graduate in no time, before i could realise it, and will soon choose a girl and marry. I wonder when again are we gonna share the special moments like how we used to. I am truly gonna miss you

(not that innocent)
