R.I.P Grandpa

As people around me will know that
my grandpa passed away on 3th Nov
four in the morning

I was shocked to receive this news at 9.30am
when my dad called me
I don't know how to react
and cried
sooyee awaken because of it
and she was shocked too

when I arrived grandpa's place
he already lied on the living room
I couldn't greet anyone and started to cry

my parents,my brother,uncles and aunties
and two cousin were there
eldest uncle's workers start to build the temporary canopy
everything is in sudden

In short,
no one can accept the bad news
Ceremony carried out for 3 days
many relatives and friends came
including sooyee,jia jia,Elle and Jun
appreciate it alot..

the ceremony process is long and tiring
but we were all depressed
I was so regret that I didn't spent more time with him
and all my regrets are just regrets
There is nothing I can do

Grandpa lied in the coffin and placed in the living room
I went to see him many times
I whispered to him
I looked at him for long so I could remember his face
few times I have to hold my tears
so grandpa will leave us peacefully

The third day is the
most dramatic day for all of us
before the coffin sealed,
we were asked to see grandpa for the last time
many of us cried sadly
brother and I went to see again last minute
before we were asked to turned our back
when they sealed the coffin

my heart stopped beating when I heard the hammer
knocking on the coffin to seal it
I realize from that moment,
I will never be able to see my grandpa again

After that was another ceremony
and right before the coffin was moved into the van
to bring to Nirvana,
everyone,cried sadly
my aunties cried loudly
I hugged my dad and cry together
It was my first time seeing my dad
crying like that

The ceremony in Nirvana was short
after went back to grandpa's place,
there was another ceremony
around 4.30pm
there ends

I wish to take pictures
to remember the happening
as my mother-side grandpa ceremonies did
I remember most of the time I tried to say
something to my grandpa near the coffin
but I couldn't
because I will start to cry which I don't want to

Grandpa,
rest in peace
we love you and you will always be remembered.
