prose: meskateers

whenever i hear people mention halwa meskat (or the other kueh) this story would always put a secret grin on my face. in a fair dining hall, where we lay our scene.....

"You alls, try la makan ni...sedap ni" (proudly taking out something yellow and gooey and sticky looking)

"Apa benda ni?"

"Kalau you all nak tau... ni la halwa meskat, kueh dari Penang..." (beaming)

(the other guys taking a bite of the stuff)
"babe, apsal rasa cam puding jagung jek?"

"eh, ye ke......." (red in the face)

ekekekekekekek.
