More importantly,how would you feel if you are left with a mission by that person?
Mission that you haven't accomplish.Mission that will put their soul in more peace.
I got a call at 3 am.I thought that it was him,inviting me to watch the match between ... ermm ... i don't remember.Ergh...The last thing i would care about that day was to know who won the World Cup.
Anyway,the call was from his number,but it just wasn't him.It was his father.My heart flutter wilder after every sentence.When he finally tells me the news,i thought that i was dreaming.But...
"Is it time for the match?"
"No...Yes...Umm...I don't know".
I shook my head several times.
"Lukman...What is it?"
"Umm...I got a call from Samir's dad."
"And...?"
Long pause.
"Samir got an accident,and...he passed away half an hour ago."
She turns her head 45 degree towards me.
"Inna Lillah...".And she holds my hand.That was when i'm sure that this is reality.
I can't take another step.Just by looking at his door,scares me.
"Assalamualaikum".A voice came from behind.
"Waalaikumussalam".Hidni reply for me.
"Have you enter..."
"No,we just arrive".
"Oh.Ermm...Can we go together?I'm a little..."
"Sure.And don't worry,k.Everything's gonna be fine".
So,they walk pass me.At that time,i remembered something.There is something that i have to tell that girl.
Alhamdulillah.He was safely buried after Zuhur prayer.I can't believe that i cried so much,and in front of people too.But the moment i saw his face,i just could not stop.It really felt like there's something missing in me.But,whenever i think of him,i see Aliyah.I have to tell that girl today.
After the funeral,Hidni invited Aliyah for lunch at our house.While waiting for the foods to cook,we chat at the living room.
"Aliyah,i have something to tell you".
"Yes?"
"Umm...It's about Samir".
She did not reply anything.
"Erm...He told me something last month.He said that...he's fallen in love".
We all froze for awhile,but then i saw a smile on her face.
"Yeah.I notices that".
She's still smiling.But my face grew paler.
"Recently,he seemed as he was glowing".
"So,that means you knew he fell in love with you?"
"Huh? ... Wait! ... What? ... No! ... What?"
That's all she could say,and it's her turn to look pale.
"Erm...Please,Lukman.It's not right to talk about him.Let alone joking.He's just passed away for God sake".
She became furious suddenly.
I took out something from my pocket and pass it to her.
"Err...What is it?"
"Just take it.Samir's parents gave me this morning,and asked me to pass it to you.It's something special,just for you".
She hesitated for a while but she took it in the end.
"Open it".Hidni said with a smile.
Again,she seemed hesitated.She opens the tiny box slowly,then she paused for a minute.When she look back at me,i could see her face is full of questions.
"Did you like it?" Hidni asks.
Her face turns paler when she looks at Hidni.
"Ermm...What is this ring for?"
My heart turns sorrow to think back the past.I took a deep breath.
"I'm not kidding,Aliyah.Let alone i'm joking around with you about my best friend who just passed away.I'm serious".
And her expression?Well,it could not be described.Her mouth opened a little,shows that she's shocked but her eyes are expressionless.Whatever her expression was,i hope it was something that won't make Samir's love pointless.
The rest of the afternoon fills the air with silence.She did not say anything,i lost for words and Hidni understood that we need some time to think.
"Thanks for the lunch".Then she took out the tiny box and gave it to me.
"Why are you giving it back?" Oh no!Did she not loves him back?Samir,i'm sor..
"I can't accept this.It must have cost them a fortune.I don't deserve this".
"Of course you do.It was meant for you,right?"Hidni place back the box into Aliyah's hand.
"But..."
"She's right.They must have gave it to you for a reason.Keep it.And i know Allah yarham wants you to have it too".I gave her a smile.
She smiles back,but with a tear drops from her left eye.And at that time,i knew i have accomplish my mission.
THE END
