Tahun ini adalah tahun ketiga ibu saya berpulang ke rumah Bapa.
Bulan Oktober nanti, lebih tepatnya.
Saya ingat betapa cueknya saya satu bulan sebelum ibu saya pergi.
In one of my busiest time.
Yang bahkan buat menelfon rumah and say hi aja nggak bisa.
Yang bahkan saya nggak tahu bahwa ibu sudah selemah itu.
Yang bahkan untuk bangun dan memegang handphone saja tak mampu.
I remember waking up in the early morning, greeted with such a news.
Entah mengapa, I've expected that news to come to my door anytime soon.
I didn't cry the second I heard the news.
I couldn't talk.
I couldn't move, either.
Reality hit me hard.
Mereka bilang, rasa sedih terbesar adalah ketika kamu tak sanggup lagi menangis.
I proved it.
I wore the "I'm a strong girl" throughout the day.
And the next day.
And I cried my heart out the second they about to close the coffin.
Realized, that is the last time I would see her face. Ever.
For all of you who lived far away from home,
call your family now.
They miss you, but afraid you're too busy to answer the phone.
They expect you to call.
