My phone suddenly rang. My heart whispered softly who was the person. My wife never call me and I was the one who frequently contacted them. So I picked up the phone. It was a child voice. Oh.....my son.
'Hello Ba.' My son said. It was Ikhlas.
'Yes Ikhlas. How are you? What I can do for you? Are you ok?'
He replied. ' Ba, when are you coming home?'
'Perhaps end of April.'
'When is end of April?'
'Hhmmm......now is early April, so end of April will be another 30 days. Do you know how long is 30 days?'
He was quiet for a while. Probably thinking how long to describe 30 days.
'Ooooo.......It is very long'
I was hypnotised, speachless and clueless
In another occasion, if I was not mistaken two days ago, I called my wife. She told me that she could not sleep last night. I asked her why? She said keep on thinking of me. Yeah I know she misses my voices, she misses my touches and she misses everything. About 3 a.m in the morning my daughter Safiyya woke up and asked my wife when I will be back. Then Ikhlas also came to her side and asked about me. I know they really miss me so much and I really miss them very very much. I am in melancholy mood now. I hope she still remain strong and exuberant to face the day ahead. And so do I.
I have a wonderful song that I used to listen at night and the scrumptious lyrics decribe my passion of love and rememberance towards her.
Nama Mu Terukir Di Hati Ku
Oh namamu terukir di hatiku
Subur mekar di kalbu setiap waktu
Senyuman mu meresap ke jiwaku
Menjalin kasih mesra penawar duka
Bila daku ditinggal kesepian
Ku seru namamu kasih dalam impian
Ku terasa kini kau datang menjelma
Membawa daku bersama ke alam indah
Pujaan ku wajahmu nan beseri
Berikanlah sinaran cahya hidupku
Oh namamu terukir di hatiku
Kekal dalam kenangan sanjungan jiwa
Bila daku ditinggal kesepian
Ku seru namamu kasih dalam impian
Ku terasa kini kau datang menjelma
Membawa daku bersama ke alam indah
Pujaan ku wajahmu nan beseri
Berikanlah sinaran cahya hidupku
Oh namamu terukir di hatiku
Kekal dalam kenangan sanjungan jiwa
Sanjungan jiwa
Sanjungan jiwa
Sanjungan jiwa
