Missing Him

November 2010 was cold when Father left us. Dinner was quiet. We couldn't care less what was blaring from the television. We wandered in the faculty of memory, mentally playing Father's demeanor like movie snippets; in random order of time line. I sometimes projected imaginary hologram of him standing, sitting, pacing the house, talking near me with sharp Benson & Hedges scent in his breath during my everyday activities. His apparition lingered around us for months after he departed this mortal world. November 2018 is perhaps, warmer, literally and figuratively, compared to the very same month in 2010. 

Father's younger brother died last night. He was laid to rest this morning, in the cold ground of Teluk Pasu, after the cousins siphoned milky tea water out of the dug grave. Perhaps, the morning rain will never be as right as before, for his widow and children he left behind. 

Suddenly I miss Father.
