Ibrar Multani

Swiss Co. is an OK company laa.

It pays me reasonable enough, so I can afford a grass cutter every couple of months, on the couple quadrat~meters lawn we have at home.

Our regular grass cutter is Ibrar. He's from Multan, Pakistan. With his big hazel eyes, piercing stares, bushy eyebrows, thick hair, high cheek bones, and tall lean body, he can be easily mistaken as Multani's version of Richard Gere. Serious !

Sorry for my limited vocab, but in other words, he's one handsome young man. Betool !.

And I like him..

Not because of he's good-look, but more on him being reasonable. He's reasonable enough not demanding any higher fee for his grass cutting services. There's never been a situation, where he complain on my offer.

"Ini rumput potong pendek chantek-chantek,.rata-rata,. enam ploh boleh kaa?"

"Booooleh-Boooleh.."

And, to top it up , be it heavy rain, hailstorm, or striking sunshine, he never say no, whenever I call him, he will show up.

"Booooleh-Booleh.."

Naturally, when Maam's friend asked, do we know any good grass cutter around, we offered Ibrar's h-p number. About a month ago, I heard Maam's friend's sister's would also like to engage Ibrar, for Grass cutting services laa.

But in-between, and during his grass cutting actions, these two middle-aged sisters went berserk, shrieking like teenagers meeting their Superstars, oogling over Ibrar.

"Piahh.... Awat laa hang tak habarq maii,, bangla tuu,, punyaaa la Hemsem.... Awwww.."

woo ho hoo. Lemme tell you this. I really dun mind cutting grass while listening these 2 ladies wooing and oogling me over. But then, I'm no Ibrar Multani.

With me-pot-double-girth belly, and squint-slitted eyes, I'm more like Tokeh Bak.., Ah Yap from Sekinchan. Nok wat guaner

Talking about 'be careful on what we wish for,' earlier, lemme re-phrase what i said.

Ok. I don't mind Ibrar's job, but I must say, with the current crunchy credit and slashing headcounts, yes, I do mind his pay.

I hope I state my self clear. Hopefully this'll do it.
