Zihilism versus the Hookah
"Porn Shop?" said Zil with a raised eyebrow while taking his eyes off the wheel.
"Not Porn shop. PAWN shop. Cash Returner. They're over there." answered Epul who was on the phone with Hamsa.
"Where's that?"
"Taman Mega. Sounds too far."
"Ah hell. Why not? I don't feel like yamcha-ing in Bangsar anyway."
With that said, Zil made a big U-Turn in Bangsar and a couple of spins and turns later, he ended up in Taman Mega, outside the store of Cash Returner. He was greeted by a professional looking shop. The signboards had red and grey post office theme and it's shopping attendants were dressed in ties.
Inside he was greeted by the unusual usual bunch. Raffique, Tarquin, C.K. and Hamsa. They greeted each other in Raya greetings and then began checking out the variety of items within the store. The shop had everything from Kitchen Appliances, Computers, TVs, old record albums and their players, Scuba Gear, a Saddle, Rejected Toys to a Halloween Costume.
Tarquin was there to check for any 2nd hand cameras.
Raffique bought himself a Beer College board game. "Drink to Graduate."
C.K. was checking out some Laser Discs with Big-Haired 80's women on the cover.
Hamsa couldn't stop laughing at a straw bag with the Mitsubishi logo on it. One could only wonder why.
It was like thousand man's trash to some and a horde of treasure to another.
Zil was looking into the counter table for anything he thought he could buy. He wanted a watch. His left wrist had been lonely for a long time. He he looked up, he could not believe his eyes.
Standing across him was the most beautiful hookah he had ever seen.
Hookah is also another word for the Shisha bong by the way.
"Oh my God! It's you!"
Zil instantly grabbed the bong and looked at the pricelist. It was a good price. And he was already had the money from his Raya earnings. Immediately, the crowd formed behind him. They saw him grab it and they now deep inside he really wanted one. But Zil was still not clear of his decision. Of course, the rest of them were pretty sure of it.
"Buy it... You know you want it."
"Buy the Shisha..."
"Buy the Shisha..."
"Buy the Shisha..."
"Buy the Hookah..."
"FOr Cha0s..."
"C'mon Zil. You gotta buy it. If you see something you want to buy at Cash Returner, you might as well
Zil was left alone inside the store to decide whether he should purchase the shisha with his hard earned money or not. He looked outside and saw everyone raising a thumb while grinning from ear to ear. He sighed heavily, reached into his wallet, and headed for the counter.
Later in the car:
"Zil, I thought you quit smoking?"
"I guess this is something I bought for good occasions."
"Then it's going to get 'occasionally'."
