Bathe me mother

in #story6 years ago

I have a friend, let's call him Pita. When I was in college, I knew him as a brilliant man. The university sent him to Tulip to study international law at Utrecht University, whereas I chose to finish my education in medicine. Ribbon continues to pursue his dream until one day he got a husband who are both achievers. Coinciding with the appointment of Pita to diplomatic staff and the completion of her husband's doctorate, born a son of the fruit of their love, Eka his name. Ribbon getting busy with his job while Eka is only 6 months old. Pita very often leave Eka go from one city to another, even from one country to another.

I once asked him, "Is not Eka still too small to be left behind?" "No, I've prepared everything and all is going well", answered Pita.

Under the care of the baby-sitter and the supervision of his grandparents, Eberhaven became a bright and lively child. Grandmother's grandfather never forgot to tell Eka of the greatness of both parents who have become the pride of them all. Although both parents are so busy, but Eka can understand their busy life.

One day, Eka had asked a sister to her parents. Both parents explain about their busyness that has not been possible to give Eka a sister. This time, Eka again understands the condition of her parents. Because of Eka's so understanding and mature attitude, the Ribbon calls her "Little Goddess". Although both parents often come home late at night, but Eka still be nice and not sulk. Because of the sweetness of Eka's attitude, I once dreamed of a child like me.

Bright morning on that day, for some reason Eka did not want to be bathed by her baby sitter. "Eka wants a bathing mama", she said.

Ribbons that every day race against time of course become upset. Eka filed the same petition for about a week, but Pita and her husband did not really care. "Maybe he was in transition so he asked for more attention", they thought.

Until one afternoon, I was startled by Ida's phone, the baby sitter. There was a panic in his voice, "Doctor, Eka had a fever and a seizure, now he's in the ER."

Without thinking I went straight to the ER, but it was too late. Death has picked up Eka who is lively, smart and understanding. At the time of the incident, her mother was inaugurated her new office.

In a state of shock, Pita returns home and the only thing he wants to do is bathe his son Eka. The desire to bathe Eka was achieved, though in a state of rigid body. He bathed Eka accompanied by tears and a painful moan, "This is mama sayang ... mama who bathe Eka".

Eka's little body was buried in the ground, but we still stood there silently. I let the Ribbons utter words that could amuse himself for the departure of his Eka. Silence for a moment, before Pita finally bowed, "Wake up Eka, mom want to bathe Eka, give mama a chance again, Ka ..."

The moan was so heart-wrenching, but it was all over. Regret always arrives late and the same opportunity will never be repeated.

Express the attention and love to the people we love, as long as there is chance.

All goes according to the Law of cause and effect. There is a cause then there is a result in this life.

We can find another time for a career and try, but the people we love can not always be with us. Who knows how long someone lives in this world?

Do good and express our love as long as there is still a chance.

May all beings be happy
