When i woke up... i saw another police car in front of me... and also an ambulance...
It seems that a female was beaten by her boyfriend... and she called the police... well... not my problem...
I went back to sleep... without eating any breakfast of course... and when i woke up... it was around 10...
I missed the part where we "last" see our ah-ma before the coffin closes up...
I rushed up to the coffin and touched it... just like the way she laid down in her bed a few days ago... i told her that she must be careful on the way... and if there is anything she needed, she can come and find me... now that i think of it... seems funny...
We said some more prayers... before they closes the coffin... the band started to take up their position... it was about a 4-5 man team... they started playing the music... funny... all they played was 12 lian hua... and all those damm sad one... tears started dropping down... even my dua pei... the eldest son... cried all the way through...
One by one... all the "nu xu" started to come up and pray... the shu fu recited some song... saying that she has done her best in raising us up... etc... etc...
The van started to reverse in... i cried when the coffin was placed into the van... we walk behind the van... her sons were all "acting" to push the van... it was a very sad moment to me as that will be my last time walking... for my ah ma...
We walked a very short distance... before an air-con bus came to pick us up... everyone loaded the bus silently...
We alighted from the bus... and was escorted to a viewing room... The coffin was then rolled in..
The priest said some more prayers... and my dua bei ( eldest son ) took her picture and cried... the atmosphere was quite tense... the hall was very nicely done... We were then escorted to another room... this is where we will last see our grandma... everyone was packed in the room... it has sort of like steps against a clear glass...
We then saw the coffin automatically rolled in... it was heading towards a tiny opening... my ah gor kneel on the ground... asking ah ma not to leave us... thats the critical point... everyone started crying... those who were "nearer" to her like my ah gor, my dad, ah peng ( the son she doted most ), my dua bei... all started to cry... then... it's over... the door closes behind them... end...
We were then escorted out... took out our socks and pants... and threw it away... we were then informed to come back tomorrow to collect her ashes...
