"I came out, and he was lying in a pool of blood.
Towels laid, soaked with blood.
Kak, banyak darah kak,
she said, her voice cracking.
Tears in her eyes.
It pulled my heartstring.
I had wanted to cry.
But everytime I look at someone else,
I decide that I should be strong.
I clenched my jaws and looked away."
2009 is really not a good year.
But its okay.
Allah gave me 10 good years,
after a bad 1.
Ya Allah, please let there be no phone calls tonight.
Please don't let it be the C word.
Please let everything be alright.
Ya Allah, please protect my families and the people I love.
I love my family so much it hurts.
