Sex, Guns and Words: Two

TWO
The boy which was previously unknown is now known as Sam.
Sam here is going to buy something to eat before he goes to the same table where he had made a promise to a girl who he does not know the name yesterday. A promise that they would meet at the same place and time.
He got there earlier than usual, 30 minutes earlier. Like the previous part, he takes his favorite book and pen out. He had to write more when he got back yesterday but nothing came to mind except her face.
And so he waited for a good long 30 minutes and just as she had said yesterday, “Exactly at 1”, she was punctual.
He offered the girl a seat beside him. This time he takes the opportunity to ask her name.
“I’m Susan and you are?”
“It’s Sam.”
She unpacks her food once again, the same as she did the day before and he, this time ignores the book and pen. Instead, he starts a conversation with her. He begins with simple questions and slowly moving up to more heated matters.
“So, do you have a boyfriend Susan?”, he asked.
She giggled and paused for a brief second before answering him, “Unfortunately, I don’t but I’m sure a guy like you would have a lady by his side, right?”
“Huh, unfortunately I don’t as well.”
As time stretches further, he knows her a little by five percent at least. She majors in communication, loves to read, adores children, a very observant person and her relationship status: single.
Susan too knows something a little about Sam. He studies communication as well but a few semesters ahead of her, he loves to read, loves to sleep, loves to sit alone in the coffee shop, and apparently not very observant.
Normally a guy would straight up ask her out on a date but Sam here is as dense a rock. The chance slipped away from his sight as Susan once again leave the cafeteria.
"Can we meet again tomorrow?" he asked.
"Sure if you're free."
"Same time again?"
"Yes, but I might a little late." she replied.
Sam was confident that she would show up regardless and he would wait for her regardless. It is the start of something new.
He wrote on his book, 'This is just the beginning'.

Sex, Guns and Words: EXTRA 3: First year

“I’m sorry Abdullah .” he shot the man with his silencer barrel pistol. Two shots were shot. He dragged the body back on the bed. His hand bloodied and deep down he felt guilty about it but he knew it had to be done. He takes out his phone and speeds dial to an unknown number, “The owl is now in a cage.” The receiver from the other end replied, “Affirmative agent. Rendezvous at the designated location.” He throws the phone away outside the window. He makes way onto the main deck with the rest of his belongings. He prepares his escape with the ship’s safety boat. He once again stares at the gun and tries to accept the situation that he has killed a person. He took a life away. “If you cannot fix a person then don’t hurt the person.” his father said. He keeps the gun and throws away the thought of his father’s advice. ‘I am now and not before’ as he sails away from the cargo ship.

Mythology of Borneo / Sabah - Mount Kinabalu [Part 1]

Information on the picture: it is drawn by Yeng Kiat [ source ] Mount Kinabalu’s (Malay:  Gunung Kinabalu ) [pronounced ki-na-bah-lu] name is a mystery to this day even among the locals. Because to each family, and to each person living in the state of Sabah the origin of the mountain’s name have their own different meaning. However, there is a common derivation of the name from the Kadazan words that is well known among the people of Sabah (mind you, the Kadazans aren’t the Dusuns, and the Dusuns aren’t the Kadazans, and there is an abundance of people living in the state),  Aki Nabalu , meaning ‘the revered place of the dead’. The local Kadazandusuns believe that when they pass away, their spirits will climb the mountain top and dwell there. Sir Hugh Low , a British colonial administrator and naturalist made the first documneted ascent to Kinabalu and he reported that his Kadazandusun guide carried an assortment of charms such as pieces of wood, human teeth, a...
