New life

Kringggggggggggggggggggggg. Kuat sungguh nada deringan jam loceng yang dibeli oleh papa. Jam loceng dicapai lalu ditutup deringannya agar tidak menjadi riuh sekampung.

Tiba-tiba satu suara jeritan terdengar dari bawah.

"Bangun cik Kyra". suara minah Indon mula bergema.

"Arghh!" suara malas bangun tidur mula kedengaran.

"Alangkah bagusnya kalau harini aku tak perlu bangun dan tak perlu pergi kolej" mula berfikir.

Tiba-tiba

"Cik Kyra. Cik Kyra" pintu bilik diketuk.

Pantas Kyra bangun dari tilam empuknya lalu buka pintu. Terpancul satu lembaga dihadapan Sumi, minah Indon yang saban hari semakin sabar dengan karenah budak perempuan yang bernama Kyra. Matanya terbeliak sambil memandang Sumi dari atas ke bawah. Sumi terdiam dan tertunduk.

"Takutlah tu. Tadi teriak sangat!" cemuh Kyra

"Kyra, cepat mandi nanti lewat ke kelas. Today is your first day, remember? I believe you doesnt want to be late?" kedengaran suara perempuan tua dari bawah.

"I'm coming granny. It just Sumi yang kejutkan Kyra tak tentu pasal" lantas pintu bilik ditutup tanpa pendulikan Sumi yang masih menunggu diluar bilik.

Dibukanya sekali lagi pintu, kelibat Sumi masih jadi minah pacak.

"Sumi, just go away boleh tak? Kamu selalu bikin kacau. Pergi!" teriak Kyra. Sumi meluru turun kebawah, air matanya mula bergenang. Dia tidak pernah faham dengan cucu majikannya. Ada saja yang tidak kena dengan apa yang dibuatnya. Sumi, warga Indonesia yang baru bekerja dengan keluarga Selena Stanley selama setahun jagung itu mula menjadi tension gara-gara seorang remaja perempuan, Kyra.

Didalam bilik air, Kyra sedang leka membelek wajahnya yang sememangnya sudah cantik. Bermacam-macam yang difikir olehnya - Apa yang perlu dia buat pada hari ini? Hari pertama di kolej, nak dapatkan kawan baru - Apakah mereka itu semua sesuai berkawan dengannya? New Lecturer, new class, new environment, new..new..

Arghh, apa yang penting, aku adalah aku. Aku tak akan membiarkan sesiapapun buli budak baru okay. Siapa yang berani buli Kyra? Please!

Kyra membuka wardrobe - dipilihnya baju satu persatu. I need to look good. No, not only good but fabulous. Kyra ketawa kecil, tersenyum melihat dirinya di cermin. Terlalu banyak baju sehinggakan dia menjadi pening untuk memilih baju yang sesuai. Susahnya nak pilih.

"Sumi. Sumi. Sumi" jerit Kyra

"Ya, cik Kyra. Apa boleh saya bantu?" suara kecil Sumi kedengaran kepenatan.

"Cuba kamu tengok ni baju mana yang sesuai dengan saya? Cepat sikit, saya dah lambat ni"
"Ya, ya. aku pikir baju pink itu sesuai dengan cik Kyra"
"Pink saja yang kau tahu. Kau ni tak membantu langsung. Inikan baju yang saya pakai last week. Ishkk, keluar jelah kamu" geram Kyra dengan Sumi yang kononnya Kyra fikir boleh menolongnya memilih baju yang sesuai.
Sumi keluar dari bilik Kyra dengan perasaan serba salah.

Eclipse

2010-01-12T19:55:00.001-08:00

Eclipse carries on not long after New Moon left off. Bella’s high school graduation is approaching and she will soon be leaving Forks forever, ostensibly to go to college - but in reality she is planning to join her boyfriend in his vampire existence and will therefore be unable to return home, due to being dead and possessed by a terrible blood lust for the first few years. Not that the reader is actually taken that far in this story, we make it through graduation but then the dangerous vampires from Seattle come to Forks and dealing with them dominates the rest of the novel.
This is only one part of the story though. Eclipse is primarily a romantic saga, so Bella and Edward’s relationship is the primary focus of the novel. Or as I should say Bella, Edward and Jacob’s relationship - because there is a love triangle in the plot of this novel.
Bella and Jacob have always been friends, at least they were - right up until Jacob became a werewolf. Then the enmity between vampires and werewolves put a huge strain on their friendship. Besides which, Jacob is in love with Bella, who is in love with Edward so this is going to make things awkward between them.
Bella has found her soul mate in Edward but Jacob is the soul mate she should have / could have / would have had if Edward didn’t exist. She loves him too but not as much as Edward. Why she loves Jacob is beyond me – he knows that she loves Edward but Jacob still tries to make her feel guilty that she can’t love him like he wants her too (I hate this part, okayyy!!!).

Anyway, this is romantic fantasy – so.. enjoy it!

Breaking Dawn

2010-01-12T19:36:00.000-08:00

Breaking Dawn is the fourth and final novel in Stephenie Meyer’s hugely popular Twilight saga. For readers who have read Stephenie Meyer’s previous offerings Breaking Dawn is the long awaited and highly anticipated end to the compelling tale of vampire Edward and human Bella’s impossible romance.

In Breaking Dawn, one of the major issues that some readers had with Bella’s character – namely that she wasn’t independent enough. In this novel sees Bella coming into her own power and proving that she is more that capable of independent thought and action. While the Cullen family vampires have always been kind to Bella, it has been clear that she was no match for this talented bunch - but Bella’s character gains strengths that make her just as unique and talented as the rest of her new family.

Breaking Dawn is a weighty novel, weighing in at over 750 pages but it doesn’t feel like a long read. The story is well paced and well balanced, with a mixture of exciting supernatural action as well as good character development and romance. I think in this Breaking Dawn novel can give us an opportunity to examine the relationships between mother and child, father and daughter, husband and wife and the bonds of friendship.
Well, tunggu apa lagi...

A Dead Girl's Dance

2010-01-11T15:53:00.000-08:00

Before you read this, you better read Glass Houses first. If you haven’t read the first book I can guarantee you that you will be a little lost in this one yea. Pasti lost punya!! Hahha I can’t tell you how glad I was to pick this book up and not have missed a single scene of the action. Michael, ghost during the day but solid boy by night, is seemingly killed. But the Glass House isn’t going to let anything happen to its occupants and soon Michael is back in action.
But the distress call that Shane placed to his father, Frank Collins, during the last scene of Glass Houses, brings more hurt than help. A self-proclaimed vampire hunter, Frank has returned to Morganville to clean the place with Shane’s help. One group of the vampires has offered protection to those of the Glass House and Claire and her friends are relatively safe. But Shane’s father doesn’t care about the alliance, or Shane’s friends for that matter, and quickly lands the four teenagers in trouble.
When Shane gets tangled up in his father’s mess, Claire has to discover a way to save him from a horrible death at the hands of the vampires. Desperate to save the boy she loves Claire visits each faction of vampires. But things are not that easy and in the end everyone must make drastic changes in their lives.

Is this a satisfying follow-up?

Yes. Am I looking forward to the next book in the series?

Yes. It’s a good story with decent characters.

Just don’t expect something out of the ordinary.
