“I was at school, and then a prefect came and told me my brother was here to pick me up. When I saw my brother, I asked if mom was gone… he nodded. I cried all the way as I went to get my bag and all my stuff… When I got home, my sister-in-law said mom was still there.”
“When I was in Form 4, a teacher called me to pack my bag during an exam. While going down the stairs, the teacher told me my father had passed away. At that moment, I didn’t cry because I thought it was a joke. When I got to the front…”
Many offered their condolences and expressed hope that the three brothers would find the strength to face the challenging days ahead.
“Allahuakbar… waving happily without knowing the real situation. May they become successful children in this world and the hereafter. I can’t bear to watch for long.”
