day 17 ...

it's day 17 and not a phonecall since the last one. my brother-inlaw is still missing but we haven't lost hope.

hubby called his sister last night. hubby's youngest niece doesn't want to go to school, that is understandable. it is difficult for her with all the Q&A from her teachers and friends. poor girl  :'(

sis-inlaw told hubby that it is still not safe for us to go. she lives about 4 doors from her inlaws and to go home, just to check the house or get some things, she has to have 6 bodyguards with her. 6!

rumours have been going around on certain chats & web sites about my brother-inlaw. some even stated that he's home after paying a hefty ransom! if only that were true, that he is safely home.

whenever my phone rings or text messages come in, when i see hubby's name or SIL's name come up, my heart does a flip-flop.

Ya Allah, please send him home safely. open those bad mens' hearts to let him go home. please ....
