50 hours disappearance : part I

As he blinked into the scene with emitting a powerful aura, a boy was just nearby the playground toying around with a sandbox.

[The little kid startled]

Little kid : Hey, it's the mysterious man!

It's been awhile since he left the place to venture into a more exciting thrilling event in the outer world called UiTM.

He urged the kid forward and decided to tell the little kid the experience he came across.

It all began on a Thursday night when it was cooling night with little wind blewing across the street and his phone rang. He picked it up and it was the leader of the group. It was a wake up call. He clean himself and ready by 4 am. An Iswara car appeared just outside his house. With a few more of his teammates were already in the car. All this was just like Harry Porter but no, he isn't Harry.

He jumped into the car and ready to depart. Straight to UiTM was everyone in the car aim. It was the longest 50 hour non - stop debating event organized by UiTM to break the Malaysia Book of Record.

[the Longest 50 Hours Non-Stop Debating event. A three days event.]

With all due luck, force and soul, everyone reached there early and shine with high hopes of anticipation.

[Upon reaching the new world, UiTM]

He was greeted by the dean of the communication department. She was in the middle age and a little over size. No offense but she's nice.

At 10am, the runners asked him to look at the schedule for the event.

[Looked up and down for it.]

Found his name for the third event which meant he be shooting people on the third round. No, he won't be killing anyone. Shooting as in literally.

The motion was "this house would take away television advertisement from children."

Eventually, he went through his first round. It was screwed up. Definition uncleared by his first speaker and it was shot dead right through the forehead by the closing government speaker. He did his best to do damage control. Anyway, the purpose of the event was to make it non-stop 50 hours debate so there won't be any adjudicators (the judges) giving winning or losing points.

[After his first round]

He walked around, met old faces and new faces in the debating scene. He tried to cheer his apprentices and guide them to debating scene. Anyway, it was an exposure.

[2nd day]
He decided to take another round of debate.

The motion was "this house would use pornography."

It was a great motion to debate on a hot day. He went through the debate well. After that, he stayed to watch his apprentices debate.

[Night event]
The team decided to go for a supper and he hop in for a meal after a long tiring day at 2.00 a.m. looking for "Bak Ku Teh" but in vain. So the driver went to a mamak store instead. He wasn't driving but laying drowsily at the backseat with another apprentice called Tan.

As the driver swirled the car near the mamak store and waiting for the second car to come. Another car in front, started it engine and bang on our car. Head on head.

"Wow, I just woke and the minute I opened my eyes, I saw that car came straight at us without looking the front!"

Luckily, it was only the bumper that fall on the ground. If it was anything serious like the engine or the compartment inside, all the people in the car will be in deep shit.

Both driver came out and negotiate.

He was the first one out to investigate the problem.

Negotiation took place for half an hour with a busybody mechanic poking his business.

Finally, the decision was to meet the clumsy guy tomorrow for a compensation.

At the end of that event was having his meal at a mamak store instead of "bak ku teh" and with a bang.

[Third day, the closing ceremony.]
He couldn't make it to the closing ceremony because he had to follow the driver.

Whole process of repairing took almost 2 hours. Missed the ceremony and the weather was like the Sahara Desert.

Went home withour any satisfaction because he didn't manage to watch the ending.

C.Luke, the "team leader" came out another "splendid" idea of going to MMU Melaka to watch the debate and social night. That's so not thoughtful!

[Third day, night event]
By the time, everyone reached MMU Melaka it was already evening. Everyone managed to watch a round of debate and it's already night.

Now, the internal debate start when C.Luke proposed to stay for the social night. Some opposed and some agreed. But what astonishing was C.Luke said one car will be staying and another car will leaving home. Since C.Luke and Roy was the only two drivers, when both of these drivers want to stay, who's driving? The iswara belongs to someone else, and C.Luke was given the responsibility over it.

Therefore, some commotion arises from the apprentices that want to go home.

[To be continue..]
