A quick whiff
Wednesday, May 20, 2009
I had a quick smoke break downstairs just now. With coffee in 1 hand, I walked to the smokers designated area.
While lighting my ciggie up, comes an Indian guy (lets call him Uncle), in his mid 50s joining me for a smoke. A quick conversation (in Malay) was triggered:
Me: *takes ciggie and lights it up*
Uncle: *huff puff*
Me: *puts the ciggie box at the side*
Uncle: *looking at the box* Apa yang diorang taruk dekat kotak rokok ni orang takkan berhenti hisap rokok punya.
Me: *looks at Uncle accompanied by a quick laugh* Ya lah Uncle. Betul tu. Buang duit saja print gambar-gambar tu.
Uncle: Gambar-gambar tu semua tipu la. Itu bukannya sebab rokok. Uncle dah 35 tahun hisap rokok, takda apa-apa pun
Me: *in amazement* Wah Uncle. Lamanya sudah hisap rokok.
Uncle: Ya lah, dari sekolah menengah lagi. Sekarang saya sudah masuk 50. Sebenarnya kalau hisap rokok ni, asap tak masuk pun paru-paru
Me: *eyes wide open* Macam mana tu Uncle?
Uncle: *takes a deep huff* Itu macam baru masuk dalam paru-paru. *takes a short huff* Kalau hisap ini macam tak masuk paru-paru la. Sampai tekak saja.
Me: *bedazzled* Oh. Itu macam ka Uncle. Hahaha.. Patutlah Uncle tadak mati lagi
Uncle: *laughed* Betul la. Lagipun kalau tak hisap rokok pun boleh kena kanser juga apa. Berapa banyak orang tak hisap rokok mati sebab kanser.
Me: *nodds head*
Uncle: Dulu rokok saya hisap 25 sen 10 batang. Manyak sejuk itu rokok. Kalau makan dengan gula-gula angin, fuyoo, lagi sejuk.
Me: *short laugh* Ya la Uncle.
Uncle: *finishes up his last puff* Oklah, saya pergi dulu aa
Me: Ok Uncle. Jumpa lagi.
Although I agree with him saying "orang tak hisap rokok pun boleh mati sebab kanser", I'm still pondering how does inhaling smoke doesn't affect your lungs. WTF..
That's all folks!
Author: Remembered his first ciggie with Pokmat. And how he taught Aisar how to smoke. Sorry man!
