You should be almost done settling into your new hostel now - unpacking luggages, filling your wardrobe with clothes, arranging your desk...and basically settling down in attempts to make the strange, familiar. I hope you're doing ok over the other side. Back over on our side, emptiness would best sum up what home feels like now. Walking past your room, looking for clothes in your wardrobe, they've become just vacant spaces.
You'll be back
Days leading up to your leaving, I obviously overestimated the ability to keep my emotions in tack. I was so certain I wouldn't even flinch when you step through the departure gates, cos comm'on, end Nov and you're back for summer break! Just a couple of months, how long can that be right? Not very, or so I thought. We didn't get to spend sisters' time tgt alone and 'twas ok, cos you'll be back. Even right till the night before you left, it was no biggie that you'll be away for a few months, I was thinking.
Goodbye fo'real
Still pretty confident when we got to the airport, "4-5 months will be over in no time, I'm not gna cry. Ain't no drama queen~" Phailllll. As you bid everyone goodbye, those tear ducts started malfunctioning. Finally when 'twas my turn to hug you goodbye, we both burst. It finally hit me that this was goodbye furrealz (yeah just for a few months I know, this woman damn drama -.-). No more fights, no more jumping on you for piggyback, no more shopping trips.. I couldn't bring myself to peel away from your tight embrace.
One & Only
I still rmb, the night before your flight and daddy mentioned one of the reasons why they were open to having a second child (after me) was because I wasn't too much to handle. Of cos, they couldn't predict the tyrant I'd be in the years later (but too bad, out you pop already!!). Wouldn't want to imagine growing up alone; growing up with you has been nothing short of a blessing. We may not be the closest pair, we may not openly share our problems with each other, but one thing we do know is our love for each other. I was known as the quiet child and you telling me that I scolded some girl who bullied you in primary school till she cried cracks me up, I don't rmb being such. Your little gestures to make sure I'm ok every time I fall ill, beats any doctors.
They say you truly know how much something means to you when you lose them, I cannot agree more. Only a 10hr flight away from each other and that sucks so bad already.
I wish you well, and see you very soon!
Miss you, love you.
