it was 2006. but it still seems like yesterday we walked along the river banks shouting your name, wishing for a miracle that you'd show up & come out of the water. we knew in our hearts that you're already gone, since you spent too much time in there.. just your lifeless body waiting to be found.
the day you were supposed to meet us all for a reunion was the day we sent you away on your funeral. i didn't know about the others, but the world stopped spinning for me. i didn't have a slightest idea how to face the upcoming days, months & years without seeing you again. i didn't even get the chance to say thank you for the joys & laughs you brought us, for the good times like we played chess while singing Snoop Dogg's in classroom & hit the city on school holidays.
it's been over a decade & some of us still thought about you sometimes. i wonder what a successful, great man you would've been if you're still here. you would be 31 today, my friend. may Allah bless your soul in eternal peace & grant you a place among the pious. al-Fatihah..
