I came to see you again

"Chirp,chirp." The birds chirped early in the morning, I woke up with panda eyes," Damn, I didn't have enough sleep again." I sighed.

I made my way to my calendar, " Mmm... Finally today is the day I need to pay a visit my parents' grave."

~Thursday, 23 November 2009

Muomo brought me to John's Gents Cemetery. The feeling of going there feels like a loss of someone. I didn't even need a guide to go there will help anyway. This cemetery, is just so familiar to me, it feels like home.

I found myself making my way to my parents' grave, there were wilted flowers all around them. I remembered when I first came here, I felt confused, " Why am I so sad? Why do I see people crying around me? Where are my parents?" I kept thinking it all over again when I was six years old.

Muomo didn't explain it to me clearly what happened because I was too young to understand. But the more I grew older, I was curious. Asking more questions about my parents, begging Muomo to tell me what really happened. Until that day, when I turned ten, I finally understood.

I jolted back to reality as a gust of wind hit me awake.

I smiled at them, " I come to see you again, dad and mom. I've missed you so much."

" There's many things I wanted to tell you. I know there's millions of questions I want them to be answered. But I just couldn't help to keep them to myself. Even if I ask anyone, they wouldn't come up with the right answer, it's fate."

I grabbed the roses tightly on my hand, I felt lonely all of a sudden. The word kept ringing in my ear, it always repeat. It was always that exact same word in my mind, " Why?"

Cold tears rolled down my cheeks as I keeled down, trying to be brave and holding back my tears. I arranged the roses neatly, the moment I got up. I just felt heavy. The feeling of reluctant to leave, wanting to stay by their so forever, but I know that this is impossible.

I noticed Muomo staring at me with a bitter smile a distance away, waiting for me.

I put on a courage smile to beckon myself to leave.
