Cigarette

Chapter One

Alias Ariffin, his life just ended today. A long and awaited winding life finally ended and I know at least now he tasted the joys, sweets and sweat of liberty. I don't know how many years he had on earth, but I am very sure he had the best of it. May god bless Alias Ariffin. He always the coolest one in the circle, the macho like handsome face with a good gifted body figure. He had some hair on his chest, and those six packs were like a weapon to score all the young and lustful cheerleader girls anytime anywhere if he wanted to do so. He had the positive words when it came to bad situations. He had those softies little beard in which had expressed the persona of a young modern- rock star in which he had in him. He was very cynic, but in a very good way. He always was best at advising and commenting and the greatest as a listener. A very rational creative minded with bold perspective point of view. I remembered when i was first met him at Kampung Teruntum. Actually Kampung Teruntum is the first Kampung opened and founded by Haji Senik and his folks just near the Teruntum River in the land so called Inderapura in 1850s. Soon after that, the name of that Kampung changed to bla bla when a man called Tuan Besar migrated there from Kampung bla bla in Sumatera.Ok, that was not the important, but when i first met him, i got a feeling that Alias Ariffin was a fine young man and years after that we just clicked. We had the unforgettable adventure together, we shared opinions on almost everything and he always came with stories and funny jokes I never listened before. He always presented a low profile life in which never interested in making bad or overrated appearance just to catch people’s attention and I always adored him for that personality. He was very good at art and enjoys painting picture, a complete complex art in which I never had the flair to interpret his painting. He was very generous to helpless old women and children and always gave them even one ringgit even it was the last money he had in his wallet. See, if he still alive, you girls should try to score him because such a pity he had when it came to relationship. He never had the chance to love and to be loved. I know he will make a good husband, I am very confident he will try his best to make all people around him happy. He died on May 3rd 2011 suffered from an illness like any normal person had in life. His door to a free teenage riot like life had closed and soon to enter the unknown of the underworld’s world like every human should face when the time for them to do so has come. Good luck for you Alias Ariffin, I know you had what it takes, all the guts and wit, all the skills and wisdom, prepared and ready to face the underworld. Let them come to you!.
