3 months - Part 2

Dear Maryam,

When the doctors came, I had to leave you with them. I stepped away and sat on a chair next to your bed. But i could not see anything because of the curtain between us. All i could hear was

"Do a CPR!"

"Get me adrenaline shot!"

"Continue with CPR!"

"Get me more adrenaline shot. Straight to the heart!"

and I could only cry. And pray to Allah to spare you.

the doctor asked me to call Bapak.

"Ok, she's back"

I could hear the machine beeping to the rythm of your heart.

the doctors sighed of relief

until the machine produced that long screeching sound

the sound of a straight line

the absence of your heartbeat

and the same dialog was repeated.

over and over and over

and i was still alone

then Bapak and Wan arrived

and not a moment later, you left us

this time, for good.

  3. Cik Ah oi (macam gaya mak mak kat kampung),

    Pada aku kan, takdak istilah pengganti. kalo dapat baby baru pun, tu bukan pengganti. dan takkan ada yg lebih baik daripada baby kami sebab baby kami tu dah sebaik-baik ciptaan. kalo ada baby baru, baby baru tu jugak sebaik-baik ciptaan.
