Aina.

Aina is the youngest sister, the youngest sibling and the bravest among us all at her age in the family. The gap between between her and I is 10 years. So, there's quite a huge gap between us but we're still close. I am the closest to my two youngest siblings; Fahmi and 'Aina. I guess it's because they are always home whenever I came back from matric and university.

When I say she's the bravest, I do really mean brave by brave. At the age of 11, she's not scared nor hesitate to hold and even play with a python. When Abangah and I were at her age, the bravest thing that we did was touching the snake at the of our fingers. Only recently that Abangah started to  have no fear to hold a snake. Kak Cik had never touched any snakes at all. I couldn't remember about Fahmi. At the age of 11, Aina can feed herself on her own without anyone's help. She can even fry eggs for others. I mean, if you have seen my sister, with her small figure, you won't expect that she could do all those things but Aina being Aina, when she's determined, she can do all those things with no one's help.

This morning, after my parents and Fahmi had left for work and school, Aina was left alone with me before she left for school.  I had just done performing my prayer when I heard her going outside to wait for her van. When I went down to see her, her school van had already arrived. The thing is, I think I have missed a lot of things about Aina. Whenever Fahmi tells me that he's hungry, I will be rushing to the kitchen to cook something for him but when it comes to Aina, I would sometimes delay it or ask her to prepare on her own if it doesn't need any cooking method. I was bias. I wish I could have done my best to all my siblings. Teremo sekejap tsk.

I believe that Aina will somehow be independent like me. Belajar naik KTM and LRT since I was 13 and I had already memorized all the laluan by then. Bukan untuk menjadi riak but I wish she and Fahmi could have learn all the hardships that Abah, Ummi and I had once faced.

Rant ends.
