Mak tok.

Mak Tok had never spoken about how much she misses abahwan. The last time that i saw her crying was during abahwan's funeral and that was more than a year ago. It was a brief one.


Not until today.


Not until i called her this evening and she asked when can she come to KL.


And her next few words were "Mak Tok sunyi, sedih..." and i cried. And she cried when she heard me weeping.


I often forgot how older has she grown, how softer has her heart become and how much of attention that she needs from her family to support her.


Old but gold.



And i missed her more today.
