Cerita ni happened over 20 years ago and I was around 7-8 years old tak silap. It was the time when I realized that I'm a strong independent person who can survive anywhere. Kisah dia bermula macam hari-hari biasa.
I'm not really sure but I think masa tu weekend lah because bila je lagi my dad was able to bring us out kan. So what I remember was me, my mom and my dad but I'm not sure if my other siblings were around. Tapi kitorang bertiga keluar pergi KLCC, we parked dekat area surau KLCC tu and nearby the KLCC park lah of course. Turun-turun je I ran towards the playground and naik buaian. My mom was behind me and my dad pun ada berlegar-legar dekat kawasan playground tu.
You know betapa besarnya that playground for a kid kan and being me, I was all over the place lah and tak tengok dah my parents masa tu sebab sibuk main. Not sure berapa lama I was out of my parent's punya pandangan but I remembered I was thirsty and I wanted to drink. So then baru lah I started looking for my parents. I went down to the swing area where we first arrived tu but they weren't there. Tapi as a brave little kid with good memory, I went back to the parking lot and look for my dad punya kereta.
Once there, I can't find my dad punya kereta and I was confused kejap sebab I seriously went back to where we parked mula-mula. Bila dah tak ada kereta tu I was like 'okay maybe dekat depan sikit' So I was wandering around the car park looking lost and tiba-tiba ada bunyi hon and I turned nampak ada macam gold caddy tu and pak guard atas tu tanya I nak pergi mana. I don't know I was that brave but I approached the pak guard and said 'mak dengan ayah dah balik' then the guard suruh naik lepastu dia sent me to the receptionist dekat tengah-tengah KLCC tepi what is now Uniqlo tu.
I remember the lady yang kerja masa tu asked me so many questions about where my parents at and dekat mana last nampak my parents but all I see that time was this air kotak dekat atas meja dia lepastu I pointed my finger dekat air tu and she gave it to me. Lepastu dia buka drawer dia and keluarkan bekal dia, it was kuih karipap and dia cakap makan lah ni and of course I did.
She made a few announcement and beberapa minit lepastu my mom sampai. Dia drama lah tanya where I've been semua and I said I went back to the car and kereta tak ada dah. She said ayah keluar pergi amik along dekat tempat kerja.
So that was the story on macam mana I hilang dekat KLCC but rest assured that it was not the last time. There are a few series of event where Faiz hilang dekat mall. But I can say that KLCC was the best and that kakak receptionist tu memang baik.
P/S: Dah tua-tua ni pun tak hilang tapi sesat banyak juga.
