A little bit of myself and ....

Sometime I feel, why dearer/nearer ones have to die. I never felt the real effect of a person's death when I was a kid. In my childhood on my way to my school, I used to walk thru some streets were I used to see families mourning for the dead ppl. I used to think, why they have to cry for these things.
I realised the real loss, when I lost my father. I cried,cried n cried and also asked GOD can u take me n give back my father, 'cos my family needs him. Lots of wishes/bargains were done. But got no reply. From then on, I started feeling for the families who have lost somebody.
I recently joined a company, there from the day one, I was befriended by one Northy guy who joined 3days b4 me. We had become so very good frends. If we're spotted alone in the campus, ppl started question abt wat happened 2 the other guy. He is fun loving, smart worker and also loooot talented. We like competing with each other in work.
Diwali came by he went 2 his hometown. Returned this tuesday. Everything was going fine.
On Friday I went to office n as I rushed out of the lift. he jumped into it n went out after givin me a smile.
Later he came back n told that he wants 2 go to hometown today itself. I questioned him, he said "his mom is in critical condition, has got a brain haemorrhage. His brother had just called him, she is in hospital from past 2days". He booked his air tickets. whole while he was tensed, I wanted 2 talk 2 him, console him, wat 2 say " I didnot know". Evening he left. I wanted 2 call him, then I realised his mobile might not b in roaming.
The thunderbolts struck me when his message reached me around 11pm, that his MOM PASSED AWAY. I called him immediately, he said "she was gone b4 I reached here".
I don't know whether he was crying @ that moment. But I was.I had no words, just said "finish up all the rituals, I will pass the news 2 PM".
I know how it feels when we loss somebody very near n dear.
This is 3rd incident in my life including my father n my frends parents, which has caused gr8 sorry in my life.
