Release Date: 25 December 2003
Genre: Sci-Fi, Thriller, Action, Mystery

When his mind is wiped, he heads to the bank to collect his multimillion fee where it turns out that he, during the erased three years, signed the money away and exchanged it for a group of nineteen seemingly worthless items.

Orang perempuan tidak akan menjadi perempuan yang baik sekiranya dia tak tahu… tarik muncung empat, lima depa time merajuk! Sekali pandang lipstik kat bibir perempuan tu sama sahaja warna merah, tapi dua kali pandang warna tu sebenarnya tak sama; ada merah ros, mera h sirap, merah hati, merah darah dan duit merah!

Orang perempuan akan membelek muka di cermin sekurang-kurangnya tiga kali sebelum ke tempat kerja, enam kali semasa kerja dan tiga kali pula selepas balik kerja dengan mengambil masa kira-kira setengah jam setiap kali.

Hampir kesemua wanita memang suka memakai kasut bertumit tinggi. Kebiasaannya paling tinggi tumit kasut seorang wanita ialah 10 cm. Jika semua kaum wanita di Malaysia, ini termasuklah Sabah dan Sarawak memakai kasut yang tumitnya setinggi 10 cm, tumit-tumit kasut itu kalau dikumpulkan cukup untuk dibuat sup untuk seluruh rakyat Malaysia, tak kira lelaki ataupun perempuan!

Baca dengan perlahan-lahan dan penuh penghayatan.

Aku terlanggar seorang asing semasa berjalan,
"Oh maafkan saya, saya tak perasan"

Katanya "Maafkan saya juga,
Saya tak nampak saudara"

Kami amat bersopan dan saling menghormati,
Kami saling melambai sambil berlalu pergi,

Tetapi di rumah lain pula ceritanya,
Bagaimana kita melayan orang tersayang, tua dan muda,

Lewat petang, tika memasak makan malam,
Anak lelaki kecilku berdiri di dapur secara diam-diam,

Bila berpaling aku hampir melanggarnya jatuh,
Jerkahku, "Jangan buat kacau di sini, pergi main jauh-jauh"

Dia berlalu pergi, hatinya hancur luluh dan beku,
Aku tak sedar, bertapa kasarnya kata-kataku,

Sedangku berbaring di katil mendengar musik,
Terdengar suara halus datang membisik,

"Bila bersama orang tak dikenali,
Begitu bersopan dan merendah diri,
Tetapi ahli keluarga tersayang, sering dimarah dan dicaci",

"Cubalah kau pergi lihat di lantai dapur,
Kan kau temui bunga-bungaan berterabur",

"Itu adalah bunga-bunga dibawanya untuk kamu,
Dia memetiknya sendiri, kuning, biru dan unggu",

"Dia berdiri senyap agar jadi kejutan buat kamu,
Kamu tak pernah sedar airmatanya yang datang bertamu",

Pada tika ini, aku merasa amat kecil sekali,
Airmataku mencurah ibarat air di kali,


Senyap-senyap ku kebiliknya, dan melutut di katil,
"Bangunlah, anakku, bangunlah si kecil"

"Apakah bunga-bunga ini dipetik untuk mak?
Dia tersenyum, "Adik terjumpanya belakang rumah di semak"

"Adik memetiknya kerana ia cantik seperti ibu,
ibu tentu suka terutama yang unggu,

"Maafkan ibu, atas sikap ibu hari ini,
Ibu tak harus menjerkah kamu, sebegini,

Katanya,"Oh, ibu, itu tak mengapa,
Saya tetap sayang ibu melebihi segala,

Bisikku, "Anakku, ibu pun sayang kamu,
dan ibu suka bunga itu, terutama yang unggu,

FAMILY

Adakah kamu sedar, sekiranya kita mati hari ini,
syarikat tempat kita berkerja akan senang-senang mendapat pengganti,
dalam hanya beberapa hari?

Tetapi keluarga yang kita tinggalkan,
akan merasa kehilangan kita sepanjang hayat.

Dan sedarlah, sekiranya kita menghabiskan masa kita kepada kerja,
Melebihi keluarga kita, adalah merupakan suatu pelaburan yang tidak bijak.
Bukankah begitu?

Jadi apakah maksud yang tersirat?

Tahukah anda makna "FAMILY"?
FAMILY = (F)ATHER (A)ND (M)OTHER (I) (L)OVE (Y)OU


" HARGAILAH KELUARGA ANDA "
