Q: The best thing to do is to forget...

It’s just what it is. MeiYi called to talk about my regrets, both tearing up with every passing seconds. When she was left bleeding to death by the curb, we were having a sound sleep in bed, safe and thoughtless, taking our mortal lives for granted. It was sickening that I vomited, even as I doused water over my face and had them sting my eyes; dealing with this wasn’t great news. Tell me this ain’t true, tell me this is all a lie. But here in the manifestation of a tombstone engraved in her name, we see streams of people in tears, and I stood silent, still in shock, still wishing this is but a nightmare.

After five years, you’d think I forgotten. I’d think I did too, like how I’ve forgotten my cousin’s birthday, my SPM results, my first pen pal’s name, but this memory refused to lie beaten. I am not supposed to be dealing with this right now, KaviS. wanna talk about other less depressing things. This is ridiculous, I am at home, in bed and I am sweating.  

too much too long
