Only a short time had passed since his world was shattered.
He was with his mom at the hospital when the doctor came and said that his mothers condition is getting worse. They don't know how many days she has left. This sad news dragged him back to the darkest moments of his past. Memories of his father's tragic
darkest moments of his past. Memories of his father's tragic accident, which had occurred years ago, came flooding back. and his mother's condition was going worst she couldn't last that long then 3 years ago when he arrived home late at night his mother was lying on the floor
The doctor's words echoed in his mind:
'She overdosed on...' "
She fell into a coma due to an overdose of Benzodiazepines (Xanax) mixed with Antidepressants (Prozac) -
Specifically, too many 2 mg Xanax pills taken with double her prescribed 20 mg Prozac dose.
This combination caused respiratory depression, leading to coma.
Then the another memory was him finding a box filled with medicine
Mother, why did you leave me alone... was the pain too much?"
He cried there for the whole night
His mother couldn't last that long and died .
That night passed as hell Asher was sitting alone with his mother lifeless body in that crowd that filled that room
Mom... you left me twice. I'm alone now."
he saw a familiar face pushing to him, Maya she was coming towards him.
His expression changed and tears – once dried – began to fall again.
Asher questioned his mother;
Is she here for me or to say goodbye to you??
Maya's gentle voice cracked saying
Asher I'm so sorry!
Asher's voice barely reached Maya saying;
Is she really gone isn't she??
Maya nodded
As Maya started to head back, Asher saw her parents arrive. Her father, Asher's father's best friend, was like a brother to him - a supportive uncle to Asher. However, until he arrived, Asher had no tears left for anyone. His uncle cried alone, while Maya's mother came and hugged her sister's lifeless body, but she didn't move.
This day didn't last that long as Asher delved deeper into the past, he lived with his mother, passing by moments when he started going to school with his father, and how he held his mother's shirt tightly, feeling safe and secure. He remembered his birthday when he was presented with a shiny new bicycle, the excitement and joy still fresh in his mind.
He recalled the time when he went on a trip to the beach with his family, building sandcastles and collecting seashells with his parents. These happy memories flooded his heart with a longing.
As he sat alone in the silence, surrounded by the emptiness of his mother's absence,
He was alone in that house ,
he has to go no where nor there he has a hope for visit
He collapsed onto the couch, surrounded by silence. His eyes drifted to the window, hoping against hope to see Maya's familiar figure walking towards the house.
Then he mumbled
Mom she did came to say goodbye to you
