Always in Our Heart
It's heartbroken to hear a sobbing voice from the phone and you can't help to soothe the pain.
The lost of the loved one in all a sudden is very shocking and unexpected. Even I can't really believe how things could happen in just a few weeks, a person who was still smiling and talking to you a few months ago has disappeared from your life just like that.
I didn't see him much actually. I just met him a few times and we talked for not longer than 1 hour in total. Usually it was during weddings, his daughter's and son's. Nothing much. I still remember he was such a humble and gentle person. He always speak softly, slow pace, low tone. I never heard he raised up his voice, I never saw him getting irritated with somebody or something. He was such a nice man that I thought he could at least be with them for at least 20 years.
My friend was really shocked when the first message that she got was he was diagnosed with a possibly fatal illness. She was ready to come back, but just before she could get everything planned and ready, he collapsed. The situation didn't give her any chance to have longer preparation, without any delay, she came back with 2 young ones. Everything just went too fast, until she lost him forever.
She could hardly accept the fact, it was so fast, his heartbeat just stopped like that. I felt bad when I was still on my way to her house.
I don't know what could I do to help her. All I can do is just to be by her side, talk to her. I know she has her belief to support herself, but still it's not easy to get through all the pain, and it takes a very long time.
There are many things they have missed when he was here, but nothing can bring him back again. I believe that time can heal the pain, and I hope their memories together can keep her strong.
Stay strong, my friend. And we will all be with you.

真的很难想像,我这一天是怎么过来的。早上在新村看政府医生,下午匆匆吃个面就载了爸妈一起去KL同善,一直搞到5点才回家。然后,我“爽爽”地又去了一趟IOI City Mall买爸爸吃的五谷粉、血压计,“顺便”给自己买了一个我一直很想买却嫌贵的袋子犒劳自己。 一天下来,身心都很疲...

Daddy, 今天是您的生忌。妈妈说,一切由她处理,就简单的拜祭就好,我们不需要特地请假。 当年,因为一些时间上的拖延,以致阿公和阿嫲没能及时在你出生当天去登记,日期也没有写准,所以您身份证上的出生日期没能放上正确的日期。阿嫲只记得您农历生日是四月初七,却不知道阳历...

不知不觉,已经一年了。 在这一年期间,发生了疫情,来了个MCO,然后又RMCO,现在又CMCO。待在家6个多月,回了office一个月又被“赶”回家里。看着每天4位数的新确诊人数,感觉疫情已经控制不了。我们,还安全吗? 这样一来,反倒感觉有点欣慰。因为爸妈不需要为疫情的爆发而...
