In Memories

This post is dedicated to my late Grandmother whom peacefully returned to the Creator on 4/5/2010 @ 2.15 pm.I was not to be made known over her departure until at the evening at around 6.30 whereby I felt something strange whereby my Dad whose understandably in Nilai for his meeting there.Out of sudden he rang me up at about 5.30pm informing that he's on my way to see me in Melaka when I assumed that he would still proceed with his meeting as usual and discounted that he wouldn't be coming to see me as my semester break is nearing thus he would then make his way back to Penang instead.

Upon my dad's arrival, on my way downstairs greeting my dad there's another call from my cousin asking 'Nabil,when are you coming back?' and I replied 'right after my exam on May 16' and consequently he responded ''I'll call you back''.Then I sensed something is not right.Then on our way for a dinner considering my dad might be hungry travelling down here visiting me we proceeded for dinner.Then there's another phone call and this time is from my mum and I feel double strange again as there's something important matter to be hide.Then mother asked,
''Has daddy inform you anything?''
Immediately, I replied 'No' while hearing background sound of sorrow then I get to know that my grandma addressed as 'Mami' 'is no more' interrupted by my dad.Later on,my dad drives back to Penang without me to pay a visit.
So today my both grandmother is no more available in this world and they were both 'taken' simultaneously within the same year so as to my grandmother of dad's side addressed as 'Opah' of whom laid to rest on Jan 1 2010.Now I do only have my grandfather (mum's side') left at 84 years old.While my grandfather of my father's side passed away somewhere in 1985 before I was born.Wish that my grandfather will be strong enough there to accept the departure since she had accompanied him for about 60 years!

Overall it's a double whammy for me who is away and could not give my last respect as I'm now on my final examinations that officially kick-starts on May 5 carrying 6 subjects which is quite heavy and I was advised hard by all my immediate family members not to comeback and remain focus with my exam and now had so far done with 1 paper and left 5 more in addition to MUET speaking test.On another note I was inform by my mum again that the late grandma did mention my name three times before her last breath.Really miss them.Al-Fatihah and Yassin and that's the best gift for all of them.Semoga roh mereka dicucuri Rahmat...
