From Persiaran Istana to Putra Jaya: I miss you so much PI

Look  at this picture: How can we simply say "We won't be following you ".

This coming Saturday we will be moving in to Putra Jaya leaving our house with no body at least for three months. It is a very difficult decision to be made though. Naqib is the factor, the utmost factor that moves us to decide choosing between stay foot or be together with him at least for some time. I myself has no strength to say no neither is my wife . In fact Naqib parents have never said a word to persuade us to be together although we can read from their faces that they need us so much, so bad just for the sake of Naqib. 

"No, we wouldn't simply say we wouldn't be following you because we can not leave our house behind. Because we have plants to water. Because we want to upkeep our house. Because this is our house. Or because..... All those 'becauses' are no value to us . Your value override those excuses.  

Your smile and even your cry surely will 'melt' our hearts. So here we are at your disposal ready to serve you. But your stay in this house for eight months plus is very nostalgic and inspiring one. It makes our lives so interesting and meaningful   that Tokpa and Nenek will never forget a second . We will remember  all those happenings forever and ever. They are  very sweet as sweet as your smile".

I would love if Naqib could say "I love you Tokpa. Thank you so much for taking care of me. I love your songs which make me fell asleep whenever they passes through my ears".

"Thank you nenek you are so very kind. You are tirelessly do everything for me. My food, my bath, my attire, my everything, stink or otherwise has never stop your heart loving me".  

"Thank you Acik man for your standby duty every time when the need arise. Hope you will succeed in your endeavour".

"Thank you Acu T. Although I meet you during your semester vacation, I must say you are a very loving aunt. Hope you will succeed in your study and become a passionate doctor, helping people in needs".

Naqib "Why must we go there. I have here Tokpa and Nenek. Sometimes Acik Man and Acu T. They are all can take care of me. They love me so much". Dad: "Nothing to dispute, you are right there. But we must look at a bigger picture, to serve the nations and the people, the people need our service and we must not fail them"

Naqib : "Where are we going to mama. Do we go for good. How about nenek and tokpa. Are they coming with us?" Mama: "Not to worry Naqib. Of course they are coming with us but not in this car. They are in that lorry accompanying  our bags and baggages".

So this coming Saturday will be a day to be written in, in Naqib's life profile, the second phase. We do hope Naqib will be able to adjust with the new space which I suppose not to his liking because it limits his movement. But that is the real life in any big and expensive city. You can only afford to stay in a three small room condo with a very expensive rental. Unbelievable and 'cekek darah' (squeeze hard your neck until you can not breath).  But life must go on. Tokpa and nenek still will be at your side in that condo.
