“Little boy, are you alright?... hey little boy?”

The soft voice flows through my ear. It sounds familiar that I attempt to open my eyes. I don’t know what’s happening, but my throat feels parched, my eyelid feels heavy, and my body feels weak.

“It’s okay, P’ is here with you. Wait a second, I’ll get water for you.”

The voice is heard again. I don’t know what’s happening, but I push myself to answer with a nod. Not long after, I feel something soft touch my mouth, along with a chilling sensation. I steadily open my mouth and drink the cold water greedily.

My heart is pounding… that soft thing is someone’s lips. I try to open my eyes and see him, but I can’t. In my dream, I feel like I know who he is, since I’m familiar with his voice.

“Hey little boy, little… shorty!!!”

***

“Hey shorty, wake up, don’t be lazy. Little puppy… hey!!!”

Mmm… shorty, little puppy. The voice becomes clearer, as if it’s not a dream. Suddenly I feel pain around my leg like I’m being kicked by someone. I open my eyes and see someone’s long leg near me through my blurry eyes.

Shit!!! He is…

“P’Kin!!! What are you doing? It hurts!!!”

I instantly rise up from my bed and brush P’Kin’s leg aside. What made him disturb me this morning? Does he ‘love’ me so much that he has the heart to kick me like that?

“Are you sleeping or dead,  huh? I had been trying to wake you up for a while, but you didn’t budge. So I have to get in and hit you.”

I put my hand on my head, the dream and reality make me confused. But of course, the person who wakes me up by kicking me isn’t the one who was in my dream.

“Then, how did P’ get in? This is my personal room!”

I twist myself to look at P’Kin, who’s wearing a pair of brown jeans and university shirt, angrily. That person comes into my room so early just to wake me up. Today my first lecture starts at 10, and now it’s still 7, my alarm hasn’t even gone off yet. However there’s a buffalo who wakes me up earlier.

“I want to give you something, will you accept it or not?”

“Give me something?” My eyes widen. Giving something equals rudely waking me up?

“Give me what?” I quickly rise and stand beside him curiously.

As I stand beside him, P’Kin stares at me strangely. He scans me from the tip of my toes to the peak of my head. Why does he look at me like that?

“How weird you are, dressing like lod chong Singapore* and still look cute.”

*) Lod chong Singapore can also be called Singaporean cendol (iced sweet dessert that contains droplets of green rice flour jelly, coconut milk and palm sugar syrup). It usually contains a variety of colors combined into one, but still looks attractive.
