I’m reluctant to coerce myself into accepting the fact that someone I’ve been working with for the past 3 months has left for greener pastures. Acquaintance and parting is all part of life, but adaptation is still too raw and painful to attempt. The kin-like relationship we shared, the umpteen times I upset you with the hurtful but mindless words from my mouth, the times you burst into the office with your megawatt smile and mawkish addressing, the pride you took in your work… Perhaps I will never be able to adjust to those empty holes in my life, not just after this episode, but also after I leave for school. I don’t want to think about it. I never want to severe all ties with all the people I’ve worked with for the past 6 months, simply because they taught me so much more about life than what all my teachers have imparted to me all these years. All your words will be forever etched my mind, and all your faces will become part of a special page in my life. Being unable to forget becomes a blessing, especially when you all have made such a huge impact to my life. I may be barely 19, but my path of maturing just became more colourful with you all. I feel truly blessed.
I think I’ll start to cry if I continue.
