halloween cum anniversary31st of October is Halloween... and a birthday to Sangeeta's boyfriend. Happy occasions for many people, but a sad one for me. Just one year ago, on this very date and around this time, I was crying my eyes out and it went on for two straight days.
A very special someone departed this world on this very date 365 days ago. When I went to see him for the last time, he was on drips and bandages were all over his body. He couldn't walk or eat and his eyes were unresponsive to light. My dad was the first one to reach out and stroke him, followed by me. Mum was probably to devasted to continue looking at him and stood at a far corner sobbing.
As I reached out and patted his head, memories of the fun times my family shared with him came flashing back to my mind. From the day I laid my eyes on him to the day I hit him for misbehaving... it all came back to me. I was already crying by that time, and my cryings became even more visible and audible when he struggled to reach out to my hand.
I miss you alot, boy. Be happy wherever you are.. love you! Remember our song and yes, I do love you still.
Reading someone's post really made my day though... THANKS man. I really appreciate all that you've done for me these past few months. I treasure my friendship with you and Denise; all the late-night suppers, bitching sessions, impromtu outings etc. Thank you for your guidance... a huge part of my improvement is due to your neverending "ngiams". Rock on, dude!
The post:
Kim's finally dropping off the idea of resigning!
Yes!
We'll still be colleagues again!
Please don't quit ok?
We shall press on till the next opening of outlet ok?
Don't bother about those people in MS.
They're not worth our concern.
Seriously.
Just let them be.
Sooner or later, things will start to backfire.
Let him handle it.
I doubt he can handle it well.
Still.
Am very happy to hear that you are not resigning.
Kim, if you are reading this.
I wanna tell you that please don't ever leave us again ok?
I was damn upset when you called up to tell me that you are resigning.
Denise and I need you.
Lol.
You know what I mean.
It's nice knowing you.
Though we started off quite badly.
But now we are as close as siblings right? Haha.
We are not SISTERS ok.
You and Denise have brought alot of fun and laughter during my entire stay at MS.
I really appreciate everything the both of you have done for me.
In case anything happens to any of us.
Please don't be sad.
We've got to accept changes.
It's the reality of working life.
Though some changes are good and bad as well.
But everyone should move on.
If we're not moving, we will always remain stagnant.
And soon we'll be in the rubbish chute.
Once there's movement.
We're all bound to separate.
I hate to say this.
But I'm gonna miss you guys.
I really hope I have the power to make you girls stay with me.
Each of us have our pros and cons.
We'll definately split to different outlets to support the new teams.
Just hang in there k?
Be strong.
For I'll be there if you need me.
Seriously.
I really mean it.
Do approach me if anything goes wrong.
I'll try to be a good listener.
Actually I AM ONE.
But don't know why you and Denise disagree.
Oh well.
Whatever.
The point to it is that I just want you to know that I'll be there to support you if you ever need my help.
We can still meet up to have chill out sessions.
**********************************************************
I will press on, my friend. I will work hard and if I do get chosen to go to the new outlet, I will definately work alongside the rest to make it all a success.
