Al-Fatihah

everything happened so fast.
2 weeks ago she was all smiley but now she's gone.
my tok meng passed away this morning at 9am.
on friday if im not mistaken, dad told us tok's not feeling well.
so we went to her house.she could no longer sit.no longer talking like before.
but she recognized me when they asked who am i.
she answered, 'syafina' and gave me her lovely smile.
her loveliest smile.
then on saturday dad got a call and was told that she's getting worse.
we went again and upon seeing her, my heart fell.
she was breathing hard.eyes closed.cold feet.
almost lifeless.
we stayed until 12.30am.
after sahur, i went back to sleep and was awaken at about 9am.
she was gone.
we were among the first to come.
recited the yasin.watched tok's closest nieces, nephews, grandchildren shedding tears.
i didnt kiss her for the last time.
dont ask, because i dont know why.
went along to the cemetary, went back home and slept.


Tok Meng, thou shall be missed.
