Princess Surgaku Khaula
Temporary farewell



At 07:15 my husband was ready to leave.


"Is it not a holiday today?" Ask Khaula.


"Don't love, Papah has an appointment today." Answer husband.


"Can't Papah cancel and play with me today?" Persuade our daughter.


Whatisthis? it's not usually my daughter like this. He always kept his word, how could he now ask me to cancel the promise? ah maybe because he still misses being together after days in the hospital.


"Alright, for the sake of Papah's favorite daughter, Papah will cancel the promise today." Saying husband.


"Thank you, I'm sorry." Khaula.


"No problem. Khaula wants to go somewhere?" Ask the Papah.


"No, just stay home. With Papah, Mamah, Sister. Grandma and Grandpa called, they're on their way." Saying daughter.


Apparently my daughter misses being together. All right, son, whatever you want, do it. Seeing you healthy, I was so happy.


We all gathered in the family room, Khaulaku invited us to play snake ladder. None of us can resist it, we are all gathered here for him.


His face looks so cheerful, laughing loosely with his sister, papah, grandfather and grandmother. I wanted to laugh after they laughed, but I don't know why I couldn't. There's an uncomfortable feeling I can't understand.


Today was so exhausting. We all went to bed early. My hope is that tomorrow and beyond can be as happy as today. We slept in four rooms, although narrow but I was happy to be able to sleep with the people I love.


When I opened my eyes, I saw that my firstborn was hugging her beloved sister. I was still drowning in my day, I woke him up for the dawn prayer, but I was surprised to see blood coming out of my daughter's nose and ears. I saw her face pale and when I held her cheeks so cold.


My screams woke everyone up, they ran into the room without knocking. I lift up my daughter's tiny body, I put it in my lap. I cried loudly, immediately my husband checked our daughter's pulse.


My husband looked at me with a very unexpected look. The look with a sad face seemed to announce a new suffering that we would receive.


"Khula is dead." My husband surprised us all.


Suddenly we all hugged Khaula's body, weeping over his departure. Only her beloved sister who still looks left right indicates that she does not understand what really happened, why people cry and why her beloved brother never woke up when the atmosphere of the house was this noisy.


"Sister, wake! Move yu to Brother's room, it's so noisy here, I can't sleep brother. Keep me asleep brother I'm still sleepy." He said innocently while yawning.


Everyone sobbed at the sentence my flower said. How am I going to explain it? where should I start? I was sad and confused too.


Now we understand, the meaning of his attitude the last two days. It turned out that he wanted to spend the rest of his time with the people he loved especially his sister. The younger brother who made his life spirit return when he was in a coma, the sister he always took good care of, the brother he hugged when death picked him up.


Goodbye my prayer, I'm sure there you'll be much more comfortable and will see us from a distance. Like you said that day at Grandma's, you'll see us from a distance. The picture is still on the wall of our living room, I will place you and I will paint beside the picture of your most beautiful work.


I'm relieved, because before you left I kept my promise to you. Promise will reward you with love mamah and papah. Thank you, because you are trying to win the heart of papah until we live happily with love.


Goodbye Khaulaku, my beloved daughter. I hope someday I can hug you again, even if it is no longer in the world.We all love you, go quietly. We'll try to shake you off.
