HINGGA KE AKHIRNYA

BAB 6

Urghh.. the motion today was so freaking hard! But at least i won 2 round today. The first motion was

"THIS HOUSE BELIEVE THAT THE STATE SHOULD ACTIVELY AND PUBLICLY CONDEMN COSMETIC SURGERY. "

Luckily i was in the opposition side where i can talk a lot about public figures who went for a cosmetic surgery.

I argued about racism, human rights, freedom of choice, employment and choice of job. It wasn't easy for me as i argued a lot of things but that help me increasing my marks.

The first motion end hastily and i took the chance to ask for the feedback from the adjudicator.

"Well, sabrina ur argument was so good as u conclude everything and make it look very clear. What i like about ur style of debate was, u really enjoyed and u didn't seems so nervous. And i have to concede that u are really better than me when i was at ur age. But, don't be conceit yeah sabrina. Anyway, this is the starting. So i want to see u debating in the final round. By the way, u can call me Zack. " and that was a hasty explanation.

Ouh yeah! Congrats to my team! I thanked keysha for the good cooperation!

Ouhhh ya, eventhough Zack was so tall , handsome and smart. I don't want that nonsense feeling to distract me as i really have to focus 200% for this competition. So now i have to go back to the hall and wait for the second motion.

"Eh Sab, aku sakit perut lah pulak sekarang nih. Aku takut tak sempat nak debate for second round. Camna nih..? Bukannya kita ada bawak pelapis or back up..? " kata Keysha sambil mukanya berkerut-kerut menahan sakit.

" Mokcik, pergi dulu toiletnya. Lepas habis tu baru fikir "

Ok. Ok. OK. OKEYH. DAH 30 MINIT TAPI KEYSHA TAK KELUAR LAGI. BUAT JAMBAN AGAKNYA. OH MY ALLAH. WHAT THE HEAVEN KEYSHA DOING IN THE TOILET. ADUHAI. SO NOW I HAVE TO FIGURE OUT THE PERSON TO REPLACE KEYSHA! THE MOTION WAS GIVEN ABOUT 10 MINS AGO. AND I ONLY HAVE 20 MINS TO BE READY.

Ok. Bismillah. The second motion was

" THIS HOUSE REGRETS SLUM TOURISM" ouh yeah, im in the gov side.

And im still here waiting for Keysha. This debate competition really important to me. I need to undergo until final. I need to.

" Hey sabrina right? What are u doin here huh..? Ur second round will start in 9 minutes. And u r still here.? " Zack ask me with a file on his hand.

" Urm, my partner Keysha had a bad stomach ache and i have to wait for her. Maybe i can't go for the second round"

" Ouh i see. Wait, the motion is so cushy u know. And i bet u can win for this second round. So ur problem is u don't have ur partner right..? Well that is a small matter. I have my junior here from MCKK and he can help u to be your partner for the second round. Just be at the place and my junior will go there. Don't forget to prepare ur argument ok. Well, see ya "

Uwau! Thank god! Alhamdulillah! Thank you, thank you, thank u! So now i have to inform Keysha about this.

" Im so sorry Sab. Aku tahu aku menyusahkan gila. Sorry Sab, takleh cakap banyak, aku sakit perut lagi. I pray for ur success dear" Keysha talked to me in a very guilty way.

Ok. So now i have to search for the place. Room 36 hurm quite far from the toilet.

" A very good morning to the adjudicators and all the debaters here. THIS HOUSE REGRETS SLUM TOURISM. So the first thing i want to clarify now is the motion is a Value-Judgement debate. The objective is the slum tourism. .................."

For me that was a good argument from my new partner , Ray. He was so damn good !

We won for the second round. Thank u to Zack and Ray.

"Hey Ray, thanks! " I thanked him on my way back to hall.

" Ouh no prob Sab. That was my first time actually. "

" U what..?! UR FIRST TIME AND U ALREADY BE THAT DAMN GOOD! HOW COME HUH..?!"

" Haha.. well practice make perfect right. Zack taught me and well im a fast learner. He taught me in the previous day and i watched debate videos to master up my debate skill. "

" That was so good Ray "
