The memory is still fresh in my mind. The memory of losing someone I love. The memory of how I felt when receiving the news too is still fresh even though it happened 7 years ago. Disbelief. Shocked. Denial. Confused. My best friend died in a car accident. It took me a long time to recover.
A couple of days ago, another similar news came. Husband's ex-colleague who is also a good friend to me and husband passed away due to dengue shock. It was basically another round of mixed feelings. Sad, disbelief, denial, but at the same time, trying to understand and letting go, believing that this is by all means, Qada' and Qadar. All the memories of my late friend resurfaced, although they died of different causes. Today, looking through my facebook, friends are putting up her pictures, their last times together, their last happy moments with her and many left comments as well. They want to keep the memories of her close to their hearts and most of all, they do not want to forget her.
I am still taken aback my the news. Especially now that I have a family of my own. I have a little one who is so dependent on me. My little baby Hamza. As well as a loving husband. I cannot imagine if I lose any of them or even what will happen to them if I become the first to leave this world?
To the family of our late friend, Zarina bt Abdul Ghafir, all our condolences for your loss. Lets make prayers to those who have passed, al-Fatihah.
