my cheeky little cousin

I called home last sunday, the night after my brother’s wedding. Everybody seems really tired, dayah and abg kri even asked for MCs from my aunt (she’s working in a clinic), since they were too tired to get back to school the next day. I haven’t talked to Dayah for quite sometime, so we talked for quite a while, gossiping about adik’s recent gilrlfriend, who came during the wedding, studies and just about everything that’s happening around us.
Then she told me about her conversation with my cousin HAkimah. (she’s my Pak Itam’s daughter, now 8 years-old)

dayah: kak ija nak tau tak, ari tu hakimah cakap apa?
me: apanya?
dayah: takde, dia tanya dayah..

hakimah: kak dayah, kak ija mana?
dayah: kak ija tak balik laa..dia tak cuti. dia kat london.
hakimah: ooo.. kat london ek. kita rasa-rasa satu hari kita nak gi bercuti laa kat london tu.

(i was already laughing so hard by this time - imagine an 8-yr old talking innocently about ‘bercuti’ in london - and guna perkataan ‘bercuti’ tu. aku pun tak guna word tu dlm conversation)

dayah: hehehe. (gelak je laa, tak sure nak reply apa)
hakimah: kak ija tu belaja kat london, dia tau ke cakap omputih?
dayah: tau laa. kalau tak cemaner nak gi sana?
hakimah: iyer ke? kita rasa-rasa macam dia tak tau je cakap omputih.
dayah: gelak tak ingat.

huhuhu.. and i was like.. ciss, buleh harap punya cousin.
