Chapter 7 Fabian's Sister.

Fabian's elder sister got her Senior Cambridge School Certificate Examinations in March 1959 while they had just shifted to reside in the plantation.

Those days her result was the best in Lower Perak areas,she got an aggregate of six for six best subjects that meant 6 distinctions.Hers burning midnight oil paid off handsomely.Actually it was an achievement beyond descriptions.A young girl from a poor family studying under the light of a kerosene lamp excelled in that final examinations.

Many friends came to congratulate her thereafter.Fabian thus met many new friends a year or two older than him.His sister of course was overnight celebrity.
One of the older friend who came was Kee whom Fabian became very chummy in the days to come.

She became a temporarily teacher soon after her Cambridge Examinations.To the reverend Mother of the Convent her result was expected.Every morning she cycled to school and on the way out of the estate there were many dogs which would chased people riding bicycle.

The problem was she was scared of those dogs and many times nearly hurt herself,and she had to wait for Fabian to escort her out of that estate.Fabian as usual was always late."Aiya,sister dear,why don't you carry a stick to chase those dogs away yourself",Fabian would say.

"She is a girl,surely afraid of dogs lah".said Francis.
"Then you help her",replied Fabian". "I am a small boy,also afraid of those dogs,too",said Francis.
"Do it or I tell mother about it later.Should I be late to school,I hold you responsible,you naughty boy",cried the sister.

"Alright I do it now you better move fast",said Fabian.
"Are you not going to wash your face first?",asked the sister.
"I do it after I sent you off to school,I do not want to be blame for yours being late",said Fabian.
"Dirty fellow",remarked the sister.Almost everyday was like that many a time Fabian will shoot the dogs with his catapult,that really put them in flight at his sight.

One day Fabian took aimed at the dogs,he took a number of shots at them with many missing,but one wild shot hit something else.Yes a wild shot hit someone's backside.
"AiYoooo",shouted a female voice.Putting his tongue out Fabian quickly approached near to the shot female rubber tapper.

At first he though was an old woman so must quickly apologized to her.As he sneaked closely to her the woman took off her head scarf.Wah,he was surprised to find a stunningly attractive dame,dark and petite standing in front of him,clutching her aching back. Fabian blushed and marveled with opened mouth.

"I am sorry,miss,I hit you by mistake I was shooting those dogs,please.......pl. forgive me",said a red faced Fabian.The girl although in slight pain replied'"Never mind,so you are the new boy everyone talking about?Now that you shot my back,and it hurts",said that girl.
"Very sorrlie loo",replied a blushing Fabian.

"I buy you a drink from the shop ,as an apology,okay?",said Fabian.At the insistence of Fabian that dark and petite young girl relented and shyly replied,"Okay,make it quick,I am thirsty now".Before running off Fabian asked,"May I know your name,please?",asked Fabian.'Why do you want to know,any way never mind it is Ah Har",said the girl."and I am Fabian",replied Fabian.

Happily Fabian ran as quickly as he can towards the shop for a packet of warm tea.
Thereafter,that girl and Fabian became friends,atlas, now he was infatuated by her lovely looks he has a motive in going to lines in the evening.Well,since it was fact that girl was tapping there,thereafter Fabian willingly sent his sister from their house to the roadside without any hustle.

His sister was surprised at a changed in his attitude."Sure.lah.I know the reason why?", said Francis."Shhh shh",said Fabian."Try to be bully me again, I tell every body about it", continued Francis."Okay,I won't be funny again with you,lah".

Fabian's sister because of her good results was given the opportunity to study in Brinsford Lodge,United Kingdom to become a teacher.The course took two years to complete.So there after she left for United Kingdom.

The whole family send her off at Subang Airport,Kuala Lumpur.Before she left the whole family stayed the residence of her Auntie.
