Boy ar, come, drink this
It was close to my June examination and my mum knocked and came
into my room, bringing me the usual examination brain tonic
Chicken Essence. I gulped down the entire bottle and sat by my
study table in my room. Working through last year papers has driven
me to the pinnacle of madness. I looked out of my rooms window and
thought of Yukiko, again.
It has been a few months since I last saw or heard from her. After
the scene at her estate and we promise not to look back at each
other, I never turn back to even have my last glance. I feel that I
already had my last glance when I spoke my last words to her. As I
depart, I controlled myself emotionally and force my tears back to
its origin. For a guys image, I cant allow such feelings to
overpower me.
I went online that day and see if she was there using another nick,
but no she wasnt. I know it already passed midnight, but I finally
succumb to my inner self and wanted to make sure I wont think back
and regret on the fact that I never check whether she was online
that day.
I dont know why she never contacts me since then, but I know she
has her reasons. Maybe she lost my number over there, maybe she is
busy adapting to her new life
or maybe she has forgotten me? No
cant be! How can that be? How can the scenarios that have been
taken place be so easily forgotten? The day I knew her, our chats,
the movie, dinner, straws fighting, the beach, the unexpected rain,
the cuddle and every other tiny little details. Is this piece of
dreamland meant to be only a dream?
Tomorrow is the beginning of my exam. I rubbed my eyes a little and
stretched, telling myself not to ponder over past issues as it may
affect my exam performance. I went back to my books and paper and
continue began working on it.
Boy ar! Your phone!
My phone? At such hours of the night?
Hello?
There was no respond, but somehow I had this feeling that it was
her.
Yukiko?? Is that you?
I was praying and gripping the phone hard, hoping that a miracle
could happen.
How
how you know it was me?
I smart what! Hey! I never hear from you SO LONG!
I emphasised on the words So long as if I had never heard
anything from her for few decades. The first thing I did was to
told her to hang on for a moment and screamed at the top of my
voice, literally. My happiness could not contain inside me and I
need to release it. Then I scolded her, in gentle tone, for not
contacting me and making me so worried for her.
Sorry
I cant use the phone here for very long too
Actually, I dont mind the duration of her calls I just wanted to
hear her voice so badly.
Miss me?
For making me worried and missing you so badly, you shall treat me
movie the next time I see you
I used the same trick again. HAHAHA!
We spoke on the phone and talked like old friends and the pressing
examination stress seemed to have vanished. I was hoping in my
heart that time will freeze so that we could chat till the end of
time.
Cloud
remember that day when I ask you if you would visit me in
Japan and you said you would
?
Yes? You want me to go over? Ok sure, tell me your address. I will
go over right after my examination next sat
Next sat?
examination?
that is when?
Maybe 28 May or slightly later
Yeah
tell me your address?
I jolted down her contacts in Japan and kiss it.
Cloud
I got to go already
cant talk anymore. Before I put down,
is there anything you want to tell me?
Take lots of care ok? I cant wait to see you soon!
You put down first Cloud
I dont want you to see me hang up on
you
With that a heavy heart our conversation ended as I put the phone
down. In preparation for the coming trip to Japan, I hurried my
revision, determined to do well so that I could psycho my mum to
pay for my trip. I thank you God for giving me this chance!!
HOORAY!
*Days passed*
Finally I am close to finishing my examination today is the last
paper. I was home, like all other days, doing my revision. My mum
says that if I do finish this examination, she would pay for my
tickets, provided I give her my words that my results will be good
when it is out. Regardless
I CANT WAIT ANYMORE! I want to see her
so badly and life has been good to me, even though little setbacks
filled along the way, but I love the surprises Cupid has in store
for me.
From morning till night, I have been studying non-stop, although my
mind wandered on the thought of seeing her again. For the sake of
going over, everything is worth it.
Then, in amidst of studying, my mum calls for me and I guess it
must be regarding the trip over. Hehz. Yeah I will see her
soon!
(To be continued...)
