Charles... ...
I want to apologize for being so worked up yesterday, it's just that I really feel guilty for your death... ... Your death was like a nuclear bomb that was dropped right smack into my face... ... ... ... ... ...
I have a lot to say, a lot to tell you, 6 years' worth but I can't just dump everything onto you now, I've caused you enough... ... I will always remember what you said, I may not remember your face as it was when you were alive but I will always remember your words... ... You were and are the only one who trully understood me, was it because you were 15 years older than me? Maybe, most likely... ...
I injured my knee in Sec 4, do you know? And I used the crutches you used when you injured your knee also... ... Remember the time you were explaining the procedures of your operation? I told you that I understood what you were saying but in actual fact I did not understand a single word you were saying... ... It was only when I injured my own knee that I understood what you were talking about... You injured your left knee right? I injured my right, ligament also... Guess it's fate... ...
Your father drives your car now, or rather he was driving your car when I last saw and when I looked into the car, the forever friends bear I gave you was thrown into the back seat, not at the hand break where you left it. Actually I had wanted to take it after your funeral but Flossie told me not to. She told me to leave it there so you could find it in case you came back but I think now I can go take it right? At least then I will have something that represents what was between us... ...
Remember the Minnie Mouse top you gave me? It was the only thing you ever gave me just like the FF bear was my ony present to you... Well, I was upset that time when I found out that it was actually bought for your girlfriend and you only gave me because you had broken up with her and I happened to need a top. Because I was upset, I did not wear it much... And because I did not wear it much, my mum gave it away!! I was SO pissed off with her because she had not asked for my permission before giving it away... I was so pissed I think I didn't talk to her for a few days...
Remember your birthday? I wore a pair of red jeans, and a mid-riff top with a red checked long sleeved top and you wore a pair of blue jeans and a blue checked top? We like SO flipped when we found out we were dressed so similiar! Ha ha... That was one day! All because of your one U2 shirt we had to ride all around Singapore just to get it, what a way of celebrating your birthday! But I will never forget it... ... Never... ...
I still remember your comment about me walking in heels... "There are people who walk better in high heels that you." Well, I didn't say anything then but like hello?? I was only 15?? The people you knew were probably like 20+? How could you compare?
I also remember you explaining why the FF bear was back facing up and had its shirt lifted up... ... Will never forget the reasoning you gave me, was so touched... ...
It was the morning you sent me to Chinese High for my sports meet on your way to work after I stayed over... Still remember you made me sleep on the couch! You creep! Didn't even offer me the bed! But you tucked me in, so it was ok.. Ha ha...
Charles, I seem milder today, not reprimanding you, not blaming you, at least not seriously, but that's maybe because I am tired... ... I really miss you,miss your voice, miss your laughter, miss your company...
I still remember what you said: "I'm sure you will be able to find someone who will be able to understand you better than me." Well, the truth is that up till now I have yet to find someone who can understand me better than you do, maybe that is why I am missing you more, because I just broke up with my boyfriend of 1 year 5 months precisely because he did not understand me... You know that the most important thing to me is that my boyfriend/husband understands me... And yet... ... Sigh... ...
How I wish that I could talk to you again... I have forgotten how you sound like! How could I?! Sigh... ... Ok, I should stop sighing because I remember you said that I sigh too much... ... How I wished that I could just see you, talk to you, hear you laugh just one more time, just once... ... But I know that it can never happen, you are gone forever... And it's really forever, no matter how hard I pray, no matter how much I wished, you won't come back... How I wish I had talked to you more, how I wish I had gone out with you more, how I wish I had spent more time with you, how I wish I had listened to you more... ... How I wish, how I wish, how I wish... ... ... ...
