The fever is accelerating, the impression of our future is clearer only to be shaken by another twist of surprise. Someone who does not like surprises, so what do I do? I keep telling myself breath, breath and pray, yeah that is the pivotal point of everything that I do………………….. Kneel to Him and pray, talk to Him, let Him hear my cries, share with Him my sorrow, and thank Him for all the blessing.
After ‘shayur’ today, I wanted to stay up and prepare some response to a couple of emails that has been on stall, yet I could not concentrate on anything except the fever. In the darkness in bed, hoping that the fever will subside later in the day, I fall back to sleep. A deep deep sleep which caused me to miss my ‘subuh’ prayer (hate myself for this), I even dreamt I was eating ‘Putu Piring’ (how I miss this stuff) and was shaken up by my little angel who come to kiss me goodbye before leaving for school. Gosh …………. How can I not wake up, yet I managed to off the alarm, that is the weird me again I suppose.
Anyways, I don’t even prepare hubby’s lunch pack today, nor his clothes for work, when he came to kiss me I just murmured to him that I was sorry for the shabbiness, and watched him dress, and reminded him of some urgent matters to take care of this morning.
They all left, I am alone again, and I laughed at myself, come on I am no longer a baby, a little fever can create such a stir in my daily norm, oh please I told myself, get up and get moving.
Yeah, I have to get moving later for an appointment at the school. It will be my little angel’s last few months here before moving on her own to a boarding school, continents away from me, and trusting the Principal of the new school to be her Guardian. I stopped and paused with the thought of letting this precious being away from her comfort zone, worse still from the constant in her life. But, I am sure she understands that I have no money, no mansions, no diamonds whatsoever to leave behind for her except the education that I could possibly afford.
Someday I hope I can cry again when I am mellowing in self-pity like I used to, because when the tears dry up so will the self-pity. InsyaAllah, someday maybe!!!
