Fragile Time
#MothersDayStory
The time had come to start my journey. I leaned out of the window, waving as long as I could while she disappeared into the distance...

She have 2 children, the first child is a boy. She put her love and care on the first child, and also for the second child. A girl, yet not as much as she gave to the first child. When they're young, the first child molested her sister. The second child start to get depressed and embraced the pain and wrath she have. She got depressed and suicidal. She let the sorrow eat her life. She start to be alone, and never smile again. Her mother learned about what happen, but the mother wants her to reconcile to her brother and just forget what happen. The youngest child start to believe that her mother is the reason why her life ruin. She put all the blames on her mom, even though its her fault. She keeps distance to everyone. She start to create her own world that even her mother call her weird. Yet, she didn't feel anything.
The second child realized that its only her ho cant moved on. She start to lived again and tried her best to finished her study, so that she can get a job, to get paid, and to have her own life. Life with freedom and life without a dictator.
After she finished her studies, she got a job, she paid well, and get a life she wants. The life with freedom.
Her life is ok, her career. Until one day, like a snap, her life changed again. The mother got sick, that also affects her memories. Her mother remembers the first child, but the youngest didn't.
She feel the pain of not remembering by the person who give you life. It kills her every day, yet she have to be strong like what they see on her.
The first child refuse to take care of his mom. That's why the second child take all of the responsibility. She gave up her career and also the freedom just to spend much time to her mom. She didnt regret anything, because she knows the her mom needs her. The youngest child make each days memorable for her mom. She physically, mentally and emotionally tired. But she need to be her mom' s strength.
She promised her mom that she will take her mom at the park on her mom's birthday. On that day, her mom can't breathe. She ask for her brother's help because she is so tired to shoulder it all by herself. Her brother told her to make way first because he is busy at work. The youngest child prayed deeply and talk to god. "if you will not gonna transfer her illness to me, please take her instead. It pains me more seeing her suffering. Let her rest." she said. She take her mother to the hospital, while traveling she always open her mom's eyes and holding her hand. Her mom's head suddenly fall on her shoulder, she keeps her mother's eye open but it falls. She hold her mom's hand like there's no tomorrow.
She never let anyone see her dying inside, and she only cry once. Her mother told her the if you truly love someone, you can cry once, because the first tears always true and not fake.

After her mom got cremated, she went at the park with her mother's ashes like what she promised. She promised her mom to continue living no matter how hard life is.
