A year on...

It's been almost a year since my last post.
Almost a year since we lost Nenek.
And yes, the very reason I did not want to blog was because I knew I would read my previous entry over and over again and be reminded of the many happenings last year. One of it is of course, my dear grandmother's death.

As I had expected, I am typing this entry in an emotional state. Still can't believe that I had spent a Mothers' Day without calling Nenek up and saying 'I love you' to her. She was also like a mom to me. The one who willingly cared for my siblings and I. While my parents were busy sustaining for the family, Nenek busied herself with us and was very patient with our different demands as a pampered kid, a teenager and a young adult. (multiply that by 3)

"Dah Maghrib! Nurhamzah, Nurashikin, nak masuk neraka eh? Lekas sembahyang!" 
 Abg Noi and I kena, every single day since we reached puberty. And it was always Maghrib that she had such energy to scream like that. Fajr, Zuhr, Asr and Isyak, not like that at all. But really, once a day was enough la. Hehe. My sis was still very young and once she had reached puberty, I was always not at home (budak poly already mah) so I can't really recall if she had been screamed at like that. Lol.

"Nak makan apa?" 
Every single day even if she had cooked the dishes for that day. She knew us well. She knew our tummies better. Heee. ;)

"You don't think I don't know, you know."
Everytime a boy called to look for me, that would be her favourite line. She claimed every boy who called me was 'gatal', was my boyfriend, was trying to get in my pants. So yeap, Nenek helped me filter some of those boys. Lol. Thank you, Nenek!  (Yes, she could communicate in English ok! Good English some more, you know!) Even those who genuinely called to ask about school work also kena. Hahaha.

Once I had Marsya, her fav baby talk was "Mana dia...mana dia..." until Marsya got tired of laughing. And it did not stop at Marsya. Ryan, Elisya and Keisya are all very lucky to hear that. Until today, Marsya would say that to other babies!! :)

 Oh wow....I could go and on forever. I still live in those memories. In those times when we were all happy. We will always have you in our hearts ad prayers, Nenek. We will always miss you. Because you were not just our grandmother, you were our superwoman.

 In Loving Memory,
