THE VISIT
I visited my fren again last thursday. Told that she was moved to the general ward, but there was still apprehension as we reached the door. i looked around the many beds for that familiar form (most occupants were had white hair) and there she was with a pillow propped on top of her. she was sleeping but woke up when we stood by the side of the bed.
'hi!' and a forced smile. i was too worried.
'can u pass me that bottle over there?'
'your daily tea?'
and memories flooded me as i recall the many lazy afternoons i stayed over at her house. and once when i had a terrible cough, she made 2 cups for both of us. the drink wasn't completely dissolved (due to lack of hot water) and the sugar crystals remained at the bottom. but it was still delicious...
she have pulled through.. no longer do i need to have a sudden pang of anxiety every night, wondering..
to think on that fateful morning when i received the news (i was buying my fried bee hoon, and felt like turning on my hp) i was struck numb, felt cold, was in a daze etc as i made my way to the table. nobody was there yet so i had some time to compose myself before facing others. i've lost my appetite (thankfully, some helped me to finish it ^^) and my eyes were suspiciously bright.
i never knew i have that great a capacity to care about someone. i've always thought i was a selfish brat. not anymore..
