The Day of Departure

saw norman off this morning at the airport. yep, the day has finally arrived. he has left for taiwan. that itself is self-explanatory of my mood now. 32 days, not a single day down yet. 32 days to go... =(

there was a huge crowd of the battalion, and their parents mostly. i was there with my mommy. in case u're wondering why that mommy's boy wasnt sent off by his mommy, it's cuz she's overseas.

arrived at about 6am. slacked around, waited, talked till the time came for him to leave me. it was endurable seeing him to the departure gates and even watch him go in. it's the aftermath that's prob killing me. he called to say he left a note for me in my purse, and while reading those words in the car, tears automatically welled up. but they were strong. they din drop. at least not till i came home, lay on the bed to all the familiarities. the belongings, the smells, the morning rituals and all the habits of a boy who had left. so now i m left here, waiting and longing for the return of my honey baby.

"so deep into the story, i dunno y... i din say hi or bye..."

to all who are there, take care. and have a safe trip.
