Malaysian siblings unaware of dad’s death smile and wave when told they can leave school earlier

Three siblings in a Malaysian school were filmed smiling and waving at the camera when they were told they could leave the classroom early.

They were unaware of the reason why they were allowed to leave early — their father had died from a heart attack.

The students only found out about the truth when their aunt arrived.

The video, posted by TikTok user @cikguaincomey, showed three siblings — two boys and a girl smiling and waving at the camera.

They appeared happy that they were allowed to leave the classroom early.

“The teacher couldn’t bear to tell them the truth…” the caption read. “It wasn’t until the students’ aunt came to pick them up…”

When they learned the truth, they began to cry loudly, the user said.

According to the user, the siblings are in Year 1, 2, and 3 — the equivalent of Primary 1, 2, and 3 in Malaysia.

The video has gone viral with over 1.9 million views at the time of writing.

Netizens share similar experiences

Many felt sorry for the children as they had to receive the news of their parents or relatives dying while they were in class.

One user shared that they were in Year 2 when they suddenly got an announcement that their aunt was coming to take them home.

“At the time I was not in a good mood as my mum had died,” they added, noting that their aunt took care of them from a young age.

Another user replied to them and shared that their aunt also took care of them when they were younger.

Unfortunately, after they grew up, their aunt passed away earlier this year.

Others also had friends who received similar news while they were in school.
