If God will ask me now, whom I want to be with, I will instantly choose her. She's my grandmom but she's more than my own mother to me. If there's someone who perfectly knows me as a person, it would be her...
Even before I was born, she's with my Mom already to take of her. We are so lucky that she chose to stay with us among her five children. With her around, everything became so easy....
Whenever I wake up, my breakfast is always ready. You would see fried rice, egg, chicken and hot milo. She prepares my lunch, packs my "baon", fetch me from school, and cooks my dinner too... In other words, my life depended on her. Maybe, that's the reason why I grew to be so lazy and somewhat irresponsible. Nonetheless, I loved to be pampered by my Lola coz she just knows me from head to foot....
Well good thing, my Mom is always there to teach me to do household chores, organize my things and stuffs...
I miss her. I secretly wipe my tears everytime I think of her. My life had an empty space since she left us..And it would never be the same without her. I still wanted to ask God, why, why did she leave me with no clue, without talking to me in person.... Yes i know that people come and go and if someone goes, someone or something better has yet to come. But there's nothing better than the chance of being with her.
I hope I can dream of her tonight. Pls God, I want to see her, hug her and talk to her.
Thank you for today, she's 88 years old and now in your hands.
Pls tell her that I love her so much and terribly miss her. :'(
Happy bday Inang. I love you.
Your favorite,
Rona
