On the night of 24th december 2009 it was almost midnight. Everyone outside celebrating christmas together with their family. But that day was the worst day ever for me. It was the day where my beloved little sister Amylia Krulav..died because of brain cancer. She was the most important person and the only family that I ever had since our parents left us in this cruel..cruel world alone without their guidance. I was almost being swallowed by my own darkness. She's the one who saved me by give me a warm smile and the advice that I always remember " Don't ever give up..just keep moving forward no matter how hard life can be..". That was the word from her..the word that I was forbidden to forget.
While she was dying in the hospital, there was no other family that was closest to us came to see her except for my friends Night, Light, Rz and Adrian and also my sisters favourite female rock band the Red Roses. But the band was missing someone..it was Sylvia Zelani. She was my sister biggest fan. I never met her before..since they came to visit my sister in the hospital. They said that she had and unfinished business to take care of so she couldn't make it. They gave a present from Sylvia to my sister. It was a neckless that my sister always wanted. She called the neckless the snow neckless. My sister was so happy. She keep telling me the same story everyday. I don't care how many times she wanted to talk about it. At least she has that warm smile on her face.
Amylia was getting weaker and weaker and I was getting worried and worried. The doctor said that there was no hope for her. She's going to die soon. She already accept her fate..and she told me that she wanted to die. I didn't respond to her . I don't know if I can accept her death. I was afraid of losing her. Then she ask me again.
" Brother....I want to die...will you accept my death?" she said "I know that I'm the only family that you had but....it's already my time to go. But even so that I'm going to far..far..away...I'll always be with you and don't worry..we'll meet each other soon and I'll be waiting...I..promise." she said to me with her weak eyes and her cold..cold hands.
I was speechless..I don't know how or what to say to her. She's the only person that I loved..I think I can't accept her death and maybe that's why I can't answer her question even so she already accept her fate.
DING! DONG! DING! DONG!
It's already midnight...It's christmas day. The hospital played the christmas song. When I walk to the window and open the curtains. It was snowing outside..the snow was slowly falling down from the sky. It was so beautiful.
"Look Amylia!!..It snowing outside..Isn't it beutiful Amylia?..Amylia??" I said seeing her lying there with her eyes closed. " Amylia come on..wake up..or not your going to miss the snow..Amylia..If you being this stubborn your gonna missed everything".
She still didn't wake up. Then when I touch her face..It was very cold. I was worried..I tried checking her pulse. There was no beating..my eyes started watery. I tried calling her name over and over while my watery eyes flow straight to my chick and drop to her face. Then my friends came in and they saw everything. Night go and call the doctor. Then suddenly the doctor came.
"Doctor..it's Amylia..she won't wake up. I've been calling her name over and over but she still won't wake up" I said with my eyes still watery.
Night face turn sad. He ordered Rz and Adrian to grab me. Then the doctor approach to Amylia and he checked her pulse. His suddenly covered her face with the blanket.
"Doctor?" I said
"I'm sorry but she's gone Johnson..I'm terribly sorry" the doctor said
"No that's not true...It's not true...tsk..tsk" I said trying to hold back my tears.
"It's true Joseph..she's gone..she's already gone". Night said with his sad look.
Rz and Adrian let go of me. The Red Roses band are standing outside..they also shed tears. I suddenly sat down. I keep crying and crying...my whole body were shaking. I can't hold this feeling ANYMORE!!
"Tsk..tsk..AMYLIAAAAAAA!!!!!".
