Am i a bully?

Assalamualaikum
i've watched so many movies being at home during this pandemic then one day i realise something. somehow related to my behaviour.

today i'm gonna tell a story about one of my friend and what i did to her. her name is Pijah. she's in the same class at vocational school, same group A like me. she was an outsider students who stay at home then come to school everyday while i stay at hostel inside. wearing spectacles, taller than me and have a beautiful heart. we learned together and spent a lot of time together.


ever since the first year, we students were provided with sewing kits. i named every one of mine and bring everyday, it's heavy. of course many people loses their own then started borrowing from other people. they borrowed from Pijah a lot. human behavior i learned from life is that rich people like to make loan more than the not-so-rich kids. i labeled them by their family wealth-seeing the high amount of allowance and spending daily. i've once got mad for a girl in my class from different group borrowed my fabric scissors to cut a pattern paper. gonna ruin the sharpness. and some people attitudes after borrowing they just left there without returning it back to the owner. 
masa mintak punya kesian mcm nak mati
talking about food, i was provided with food (eat there) at dining room (hostel) at certain hours. if students want to eat go buy at the canteen. Pijah's mother cooked her packed meal to bring everyday. i was being shamelessly asking to share her food. i should have more conscience and control my lust. dia dah la kurus. got a long day school hours from 8am until 5pm. we also share other food like bought from coop mart. i should be nicer and treat her food when i have money.



being a student got many IT-kind-like assignment which is made in m.word, excel, powerpoint etc. for us in fashion line even learned using adobe illustrator. so need to use a computer or laptop. usually i just go to school computer lab to use a computer. i tried my family little notebook (laptop) that we got around 2011 - but only for typing or presentation only. for heavy apps (AI) cannot. that time i couldn't afford to buy myself a new one so i've been borrowing my classmates's laptop to do homework including hers.


about sewing, we both at first teacher labeled as slow progress in amali. yeah, i admit that. i try few times until got sew them right. a bit stressed asyik buka jahitan bila salah. some girls are already expert before they register to this school. i'm a slow learner. after the first semester exam results came out, my name become popular. i got the first place. maybe it was the academic marks that add up the whole rank. Pijah got a bit back at the rank. i'm not sure. the expectation become heavier since that. i once got hurt by a teacher says. "kata pandai tapi jahit kenapa slow? baru sampai part yg tu"...opie said normal pregnant woman have that kind of mouth. just be patience.

however Pijah received worse. increasing semester the assignments getting harder and bring stress to everyone. got deadlines to chase. many days she skipped school. i still friend with her. the last study year, her family register for her into hostel. she got the dorm room same floor with me. Buci is same dorm with me too that year. i am blessed. there got other fashion students in there but she still come study with me and Buci. we went to prep class together and sometimes sleep late for finishing assignments like sewing embellishments onto wedding dress. sometimes making patterns (pola). how i miss those times.

the fourth year (last one in school) was totally intense. every module is cr*zy and we have the Final Year Project to be done. adding salt into the fire, i was chosen to be deputy head of Student Council (MPP) mpp story. sometimes i couldn't attend class for this position. many nights couldn't sleep properly  to finish those chapter writing. idea got rejected need to write again. got showcase and many other projects.

then this conflict happened. one of the teacher asking her what excuse she got for not doing the assignments given - not sewing while almost everyone done it. the teacher said something like "cara cantum kain pun tak tahu ke?" . there are many words that i don't remember but Pijah answered "saya boleh buat kalau Shamsiah (me) tolong saya".

i don't know why but that time i feel really sentap. sewing (mencantum) is one of the first thing we learned here. being as teenager got me many unstable emotions. why you include my name in your excuse? am i that easy? i feel stressed too. so many works to be done. so many chapter in one semester. things getting heavy, for everyone. the anger hardly cooling down. i stopped helping her and only do my own. but to think again, i owe her so much i should at least helped her. we all need to graduate. i couldn't stop being selfish that time. i didn't talk to her. not long after that, received news that Pijah quit school. only few months before OJT.

i feel bad but i keep going
went to On Job Training with Opie nearby my home for five months then went back to college to finish arranging the files. need to follow the format and everything, it's tough. all the evidence for each semester each module must be present and labeled. after that jobless for a while then started working at MV. on Sept 2018 went to convo. all kids from our class graduated, except her. 


so what i see in movies the student who quit school being bullied usually triggered by one person. i guess that's me. i could encourage and support her when i have the chance. there are some moments in life i should lower my ego. i wouldn't be who i am today without your help. i need to live my life to be a good listener. 

updates about her, she's started working at a bridal shop area senawang. i feel happy for her. i did apologizes to her and we still in contacts. i came visit her when i'm at rembau for taking stuff from school. i couldn't stop feeling guilty. she is one of blessings in my life and i am grateful.

i'm sorry Pijah. i love you.
