ApA mAIN?

The Barber

A haircut I must. Rex Setapak Jaya I went. Jedi Master am not.

I was here since I was 8 or 9 I think. I haven’t been seeing this owner dad for a long time. Perhaps oredi kick the bucket. The son is one macho man. Now for twice I didn’t got that young chap to cut my hair. As usual he knows I want it short. And Short my hair must.

As I walked in, there were a new young apprentice ready to roll with enthusiasm. When someone is new and fill with the spirit. You could notice the motice of two cm up and down off the ground the and the head will arch forward in respond to its upmost passion.

“ I want to cut more hair” and whatever behind that compel him have that many reasons. Just the single motion dictate it all. Other are just details. Yes…Mr. I want to cut more hair. He has its chances at some old fart which make your work easier as my thinning hair does not offer much playground for u…

Everytime I look into the mirror.. Though my eyes are wide open.. but my retina is like a small boy peeping from behind the closet door.. hmm…look at the center Mediterranean. Now I begin to accept the process of aging and developed a new term that I could come at peace with myself. Age Gracefully.

The huge mirror cannot lie.

So the shabby face need a fix. Usually it was taken care off within the next 15 minutes or so. But today something unusual come to place. This young chap develop the fire of enthusiasm that could rubbed into you. To a point at the end of it I am annoyed ; yea.. the crusader either bring salvation or suffering. I herald the salvation part but the crusade zealous plot almost torch my patience. But he is just doing his job and giving the most delightful service.

I had not shaved for the past weeks and I am damn qualify as a Chinese Moses.. parting the Klang river and whatever rubbish that is in it.

The shaving part was of interest to me. Those day, shaving at barber might cost 0.5 cents a straw due to the inhibited populace density of the moustache. Today I narrow down the margin and breakeven at perhaps half the cost. Doesn’t matter I cannot compete with the bangkali. You just cannot compare between a full retard and a half retard.

That chap developed such a sense of patience in shaving and I could feel it done quarter of a inch by quarter of a inch. To topple up the perfection list… he recream some area and outbeat Gillette Mach 5. I always fall asleep and dwell in the sensation of it. Its not orgasm. It’s a mutilated fraction of getting pampered by a lover…yea just like John Travolta being hair cut and Background music of Love LOVE love love..crazy love.. For my case, no flute “tiup” classical Sivaji tune tariking the “ven” “der” “ erm” “Mah” and blah blah.. Don’t get carried away.

Just said it was a good job done.

The usual bill is RM8.00 and today is RM11.00…RM 3.00 for the shaving job is not too much to ask. Luckily not ang moh.. else pubic hair is consecrated and root off before the night hu-ha coming.

Oh..that I got too carried away.

I wanted to continue for other topics but I need to get up early tomorrow and my travel magazine is calling me.

By the way, I have ONE MORE TICKET FOR TOMORROW GENTING ASTRO BEAUTY PAGEANTS SHOW. Any taker?
