Today, I can have some jokes but immediately after the joking, there was some sense of guilt. I do not know why but this had caused me the whole morning with heart pain and uncertainty as well as restless. This does not get better till I visited you at the cementery.
I started to worry I would forget your face instead of photo and I force myself to remember your smiling faces. I am so afraid to have the memory of you faded but instead needed to be reminded with your photo. I am so worry! I would remind my kids of their mother's name, characters, things that you did etc everyday. I am so afraid with the grew up, they will forget you! I believed I might know why I cannot let go yet. It is because we did not discuss yet about this type of living without each other and we did not get enough of chatting. However, please be assured that I will handle all for you although I will need to go through the saddest feels of all.
Since your departure, I started to put on back the watch that you presented to me some 10 years ago. I can still remember that you had taken the trouble to go thru and fore to the shop with fund withdrawal for the purchase. It did not cost much and I remembered it should be around RM250/= but you were earning as little as only RM1000/=. This was 1/4 of your monthly income and you have given me your most thoughtful gift of all. The watch is still functioning great. I have other watches in my drawer but this one will definitely have my full attention as a memory to you. The watch reminds me of our living together.
I also have your favourite watch together with my watches collection. I remembered you like this watch so much and it was your birthday gift of 2006. This year, however i did not manage to have any gift to you but to accompany you at the hospital. I did not even can sing the happy birthday song to you..and can sing no more for now! It was just like yesterday!
But you also have given me the greatest gift of all...our two kids. Thank you Soo King!
