DDG… Drop Dead Gorgeous..

itulah yang aku boleh katakan nak describe hamba Allah yang aku jumpa kat fish market Inala jumaat lepas.. Bila dia masuk, aku dah perasan dah. he walked in, grey round collar t shirt, jeans, greyish blue sport shoes. dia koyakkan 3 plastic and terus pi tempat ikan kecik2 yang ada muncung tajam mcm ikan todak.. I have never seen that fish before.. chop! rewind sikit..

I was in Inala with Emma, Chris, Val and Mateo. Val and Mateo tunggu dlm kereta. pi lepas solat jumaat sebab sebelum tu singgah Halal Butcher kat Oxley beli daging lembu and ayam.. ok, at the fish market i was explaining to chris about the red snapper sedap kalau buat sup or just deep fry.

Then Emma walked aound to the other side of the counter and lifted a blue + orange + green fish.. i think its called the Parrot Fish. i didnt know lah orang makan pulak.. too cantik to eat..

anyways.. then emma said “i dont know if i wanna eat this fish. nampak mcm fish dlm tank yang buat display tuh.. hah…. kat sinilah bermulanya kisah aku dan Mr Fish!

Mr Fish replied to Emma, “Its actually very nice. bla bla bla… tak ingat apa sebab aku dok tengok tangan dia. Confirm, all 10 fingers did not have any ring on it! yay! he’s NOT Married… then i went over and started asking him about the fish his taking and how to cook it.. dia degn tenangnya explains how to clean, prepared and cook! this guy really knows his Fish! that means, dia pandai masak… and then dia entertain chris pulak for a few minutes.. i went on pegi amik tengok ikan-ikan lain yang ada kat pasar tuh.. tapi hati ni berdetik asyik nak pandang “ikan’ yang satu tuh.. hehe.. chomel. air muka yang tenang, softspoken, likeable, attractive.. *sigh*…

then we are done choosing fish, pegi kat counter nak bayar and tunggu they clean the fish for you. i ternampak sotong yang sgt2 besar and fresh. so decided to take a kilo. tengah sibuk2 explain kat chris mcm mana nak buat sambal sotong. Then cakap kat Chris ikan tenggiri kat sebelah dia tuh buat masak lauk lemak cili padi pun sedap jugak.. tiba2 Mr Fish appeared beside me and said that he could already smell my cooking! huhu..

then we sambung borak kat counter tu sambil tunggu that Vietnamese lady bersihkan ikan.. chris and emma pi tgk ikan lain.. so it was just the 2 of us there.. he asked “where are you originally from?” then i said malaysia. he then replied, “Oh ya? I was born there!” OMG Mat Salleh Aussie yang chomel ni anak kelahiran Malaysia rupanya.. “Yeah? What a coincidence. Which part of Malaysia?” i asked. then he said he was born in Johor. Then adalah a few other stuff yang dia tanya.. sambil2 aku menjamah muka dia. ada uban sikit.. chomel… hehehe I think dlm early 30s..

Suddenly “Miss, here’s your fish. thank you!” sis vietnamese yang cakap english mcm bahasa purba tu dah siap bersihkan ikan lah pulak. potong stim betul lah! selalunya berjam2 aku tunggu. hari ni, when a guy, a very cute, unmarried guy wants to have a conversation with me, dia siap cepatlah pulak… then apa lagi.. bye bye lah.. terpaksa ku tinggalkannya..

Confirm every Friday lepas waktu solat jumaat, aku akan pi Inala.. manalah tau kan.. jodoh..

 Tapi dari Inala sampai rumah aku kena marah ngan emma and chris for not asking for his phone number. Toksah kata phone number.. I don’t even know his name . Tak sempat tanya.. so, sempena tempat we met, i call him Mr Fish. .

whoever u are, may we meet again…
