It has been almost a week that my best friend left me… I still couldn’t seem to totally let her go..
Hafizah was buried last sunday.. Sorry fizah,..i didn’t attend your funeral eventhough i am in Miri.. i am afraid i might break down again if i attend your funeral… Ever since i received the news that you were in coma, i couldn’t stop crying..Ever since you left me, i had been crying, especially in scholl..All those sweet memories… Today i am better, i don’t cry anymore but i’d still be in tears whenever i see your picture.. After her funeral i called your mum, fizah. We chatted for a while before your mum asked me to let you go..
I have something to pass to you, maybe i might pass it to auntie (your mum). Now going to your house will only remind me of the sweet times we had spent together.. Remember the time when we used to fry keropok ikan and keropok udang at your house? We didn’t fry them at the end but instead your aunt and your mum had to do it and we packed them instead! After that, you would bring me to play with your cats and your pet monkey.. During Hari Raya i would visit your house and as usual, you would ask me to try your “cornflakes” cookies that you made. Then, you would ask me whether they taste nice or not..And during Chinese New Year you would visit me…I really miss those times..
I still dream of you.. I just can’t stop missing you, your voice and your laughter… Once in a while you would call me and we would chat for about half an hour, laughing and giggling before you finally said ” okayla..dah lama dah..auntie saya habis kredit nanti…”
Remember the times that we used to play in class? During form one we even played under the teacher’s table… Oh yes, i still remember what you used to say to me ” Audrey, kelak saya jadi pharmacist, kamu jadi doktor, okay? Nanti kita buka klinik bersama-sama dan saya akan jadi partner kamu…”
And every year you’d call me during my birthday, wishing me a happy birthday.. I’d do the same too, calling you, wishing you during your birthday. I still remember waht you told me last year, when you called me ” Audrey, sorry kerana tak dapat celebrate dengan kamu tahun ini…tak ada hadiah tahun ni…” to tell you the truth, i really didn’t mind that, as long as you call me to wish me happy birthday.. And i had told you ” tak apa..Saya gembira hari ini.. Dahla kamu dah bagi surprise msg pukul 12 mlm tadi..Thanks for calling..i really appreciate it..”
There are soooo many memories that we had shared together..Wherever you are now, i hope you rest in peace. You’ll always be my best friend…and i miss you…
