I should be somewhere, celebrating the fact that I’m a free woman, independent of "the" company. But as I listen to my parents talk about the whole sordid Kris-James controversy, I feel the weight of the world on my shoulders. I want to release all the pent up energy inside me. I want to swim, I want to run the Acad Oval, I want to play badminton til I’m too tired to go on, I want to play volleyball til I’m too tired to go on…but I guess, these things can wait.
Everyone in our family is thinking of the impending departure of our prince. He had turned a year old last Feb27th so he is now old enough to take an airplane to Japan. Yes…that far, (sob) Japan. His parents are now taking him, of course it is time that they get to experience the joy that he brings to us every morning when he wakes up with that silly grin on his face. It is their time to experience teaching him tricks that would make him look cute and it is their time to know how intelligent and smart their young angel really is.
As with every parting, with somebody whom you love with all your heart, tears are shed. They are unstoppable. From my mom, who had been the mom he knew, to my dad who suffers in silence, to me and my brothers, the "ta-ta" and "ta-tos" who take turns taking care of him. We are struck by the heavy hand of sorrow. Our hearts are gripped by misery. We shall miss him indeed. Of course, technology would help a great deal but it will never be the same. All we can do right now is look forward to December when he will be back with his parents for the Christmas Season.
I don’t know whether I will or won’t go to the airport as the entire family sees to their departure. I can see it already: the men in our family, tight-lipped, red eyed and helplessly looking at our angel; the women, openly crying, holding on to the little angel as long as we could. *SIGH* I ask myself again…how many times to I need to feel the pain of losing the people I love? I don’t like my answer, so I will try not to ask myself that question again.
Little prince Tawe, you will be missed.
Don’t forget us.
We love you.
We shall wait for your return.
