Tok, nenek, opah...

Siapa pernah tinggal dan tidur dengan Tok atau Nenek malah sesetengah tempat dipanggil Opah. Tok dahulu jauh berbeza dari Tok zaman sekarang, baik dari gaya hidup dan personalitinya. 

Tok atau Tok Wan waktu dahulu kebiasaannya hidup daif dgn fizikalnya sangat tua. Jarang memakai baju, hanya berkembang dgn batik dan pelikat lusuh serta berkain cukin atau semutar bagi yg lelaki (Tok Wan). Biasanya 'kesaq' atau bau badan Tok akan berbau sirih pinang dan curut. Sukar utk digambarkan bauan tubuh badan insan yg daif tetapi tersangat kaya dgn kasih sayang itu.

Dapat tinggal dengan Tok atau Tokwan adalah suatu kenangan yg sangat indah yg sama sekali tidak ada dijual beli dimini market atau digedung batu yg mewah. Pengalaman itu mahalnya tiada bergalang ganti. Apalagi kalau dapat tidur sekelambu dengan Tok, hangatnya pelukan kasih sayangnya tiada terkata, setiap kali kita hampir terlelap Tok akan mengusap kepala dgn usapan selembut salju. Tangannya kasar bergerutu dan berbau minyak angin. Lenganya dilingkari otot dan urat hijau yg berselirat, itu tandanya betapa kudratnya yg ditelah diperah sepanjang hayat hidupnya demi membesarkan mak ayah kita sehinggalah lahirnya kita kedunia ini. Tok terus meneruskan kasih sayang yg berbaki kpd cucu-cicitnya pula. Tok juga akan mengambil alih membela cucunya kiranya cucu-cucu menjadi anak -anak yatim yg kehilangan ayah dan ibu. Pengorbananya seakan tidak terhenti sehinggalah hayatnya terhenti.

Setiap kali masuk kelambu, Tok akan memastikan tiada nyamuk yg terperangkap didalam kelambu, dengan diterangi cahaya pelita minyak tanah, Tok akan memeriksa disetiap bucu bantal kabu dan kelambu ,melihat dengan teliti kalau-kalau ada pijat yg bersarang. Tok akan memicit pijat, bau pijat agak tengik dan merengsakan lubang hidung. Semua itu Tok lakukan demi kasih sayangnya kepada cucunya yg dipanggil Awang atau Mek.

Tok tak punya tilam spring tebal sekaki, yang ada cuma lembik kabu. Itupun Tok jahit sendiri dari perca-perca kain terbuang, Tok sambung dan jadikan sebagai pembalut kabu. Sehelai gebar bercorak petak-petak yg lusuh dan kusam itu saja utk membaluti tubuhnya dan cucu dari kedinginan malam yg mencengkam. Hangat tubuhnya menghilangkan dingin. Tok melayari mimpinya tentang anak dan cucu yg selalu bermain diruang matanya yg semakin kabur. Namun kasih sayang tidak pernah luntur...

Kalau tidak mencari pijat dan nyamuk sebelum tidur, Tok akan bersila diluar kelambu sambil menggobek pinang dan menghisap curut dibawah bias cahaya pelita yg melintuk-liuk diusik angin malam yg menerobos dari celah dinding papan yg meleweh renggang. Tok ibarat jelapang kasih sayang tempat menyimpan manja diwaktu kecil. Mereka adalah teratak utk disandarkan kasih sayang..

Apapun insan-insan ini telah pergi mendahului kita. Mereka pulang dgn meninggalkan rasa rindu yg teramat dihati kita. Hati yg pernah mereka belai dan manjakan dgn sepenuh jiwa raga. Kita tidak mungkin dapat meneroka apa yg bermain dikotak pemikiran mereka ketika melewati usia senja mereka, ketika mereka menanti waktu-waktu kepulangan... 

Al-Fatihah utk mereka.

Lirik Lagu Cinta Setandan Pisang - Eda Ezrin (ft. Den Manjo)
