When my dad passed away, I went home after my dad’s funeral. Wasn’t physically there when he passed away. Naturally I was very heartbroken also there were many issues I needed closure with him. So on the day when his spirits was supposed to come home which is on the 7th day evening, I purposely stayed up late hoping to see dad. Was reading upstairs in bed when at about 2 am I heard loud thumping noises at the front gate.
I didn’t fuss much about the noise put that down to the wind as sometimes neighbors getting home after a late night out is common but the noise continued for a while until suddenly I remembered dad had a bad habit of not carrying the keys to the house whenever he goes out. And he would always thumped the gates to rouse us to open the gate for him.
With that in mind I quickly dash downstairs to see if the noise was indeed dad thumping on the gates like he used to do. The maid kakak was woken up by the noise too. Both of us knew it was dad. The noise stopped. Though we couldn’t see him, we felt dad’s presence. I didn’t return to bed but stayed there the entire evening and yes, I did had my closure with dad that evening.
