Setting: Kampong
Characters:

Ahmad (Abusive father)
Neighbour (Old Man)

two tales;A boy with an abusive father, doesnt know what to do with his life. Mixes around with bad company and an old man who lives in a house no one dares to go near.

Zainal never grew up with a motherly figure. His mom died after giving birth to zainal. He grows up with a father who blames him for his wife's death. His dad cannot live with the fact that his wife is long gone, using Zainal as an excuse for his alchoholic state, he constantly beats up zainal. Zainal never fought back because he didnt want to loose his father too. Zainal becomes wild because of his upbringings and no one wants to befriend him in school. He starts mixing around bad company.

This old man starts to enter his life when Zainal got into truble when his gang left him hurt on the ground after an unseccessful attempt to break into the penghulu's house. Zainal is hesitant of accepting the old man at first.The old man is smart on the approaches he uses with Zainal. Old man is a kite maker, and lives for kites. The anatomy of kite amazes him. It is his passion. Zainal finds out the old man lives in the house everyone thought was deserted/haunted. The old man is a means of taking his thoughts away from his father and his bad company. Zainal learns the old man's way of life. The longer he spent his time with the old man, the stronger his own passion for kites grew.

One day while flying a kite he made, his father passed by and saw how happy his son was. He had never seen his son smile. He cycled back with tears in his eyes. He remembered seing zainal's smile and it rememebred him of his wife. He apologises to his wife's picture on the wall.. Zainal comes home to see his dad on the floor. At first he thought his father had died and ran to him putting his dad's head on his lap, he cried. But when he turned Ahmad's head he found out his dad was just crying. His dad apologizes and they both cry.

Zainal wants to introduce his dad to the old man. Ahmad foollows Zainal to the old man's house with the intention to thank him. They reach the old man's house and the old man isnt there. Only his kite making stuff was left. They went around looking for this misterious old man. Zainal had a bright idea and thought the old man could be off flying his kite at the padang. When they reach the padang, all there was in the field was a kite flying way up in the sky,tied to the tree. There is no sight of any old man but a man wearing a strawhat pulling weeds off the field. Zainal ran to him thinking it was the old man. Zainal sees that it isnt his beloved friend and asked the stranger if he had seen the old man. He explains that all this time, the old man had died 3 years ago.
