Every time she saw me, the first thing she&#39;d say was, &quot;Adik hensem&#33;&quot; <br /><br />After I got married and moved out, she would always ask my mum about me whenever they met. It became one of those small things you never really think much about.<br /><br />Last Sunday, my mum bumped into her in the lift. This time, there was no usual greeting, no smile, no &quot;Adik hensem&quot;. Just a sad face.<br /><br />Yesterday, after coming back from the mosque, my mum saw many people gathered outside the aunty&#39;s house waiting for the police. Sadly, she had taken her own life and was found hanging from the ceiling fan.<br /><br />It was quite shocking to hear. Sometimes people can be smiling, chatting, and carrying on with life, yet fighting battles we know nothing about.<br /><br />Life is already short. Don&#39;t make it shorter. If you&#39;re struggling, please talk to someone—family, friends, or a professional. No problem is too small, and no burden should be carried alone.<br /><br />Take care of yourselves and check on the people around you. Sometimes a simple &quot;Are you okay?&quot; can mean more than we realize. 💔<br /> Youkeke Kopitiam Tue, 07 Jul 2026 07:39:48 +0800
