for tinerz

Wednesday, May 18, 2005 0
Today, I woke up from a deep sleep in Wisma - an apartment where my sis Alex stays and where I've been spending my days these past 2 weeks. As usual, my back hurt as I sat on the bed. I guess orthopedic ones really doesn't suit the formation of my "scoliotic" back. (Though it was supposed to cure it). Still, I love sleeping there. At 7:30 am, I waited for Alex to wake up and contemplated on my lessons for the Koreans today.

After a few minutes of staring at Alex, wondering if she'll wake up, she finally had the urge to. Alex got her phone and read one sent message.

Tinerz'(also my sis in UPFC) father died this morning.

Alex got up, and told me the news while having a hard time reading the message. Both of us didn't expect it. It's too harsh to be a prank, and Fer (also our sis, the one who sent the message) definitely won't do that as a joke. Alex and I were quiet for a few seconds.

The hardest part was that Tinerz was miles away from us; comfort for a dear friend would only mean text messages and calls for now. Now as I am typing this, Fer had already flooded the friendster bulletin board about what happened. It definitely is true.

That's why I am making this post. We can't let distance stop ourselves from showing we care.

Kaya Tinerz, don't forget that we are here to help you, support you, and carry you through all these. Trials are made for us to be stronger people. Death is something that all of us fear of, but it is how the cycle of life goes.

I may not be there by your side right now to offer my shoulders, but my sentiments of you and your family constantly resides in my mind every minute, hour. Sana andyan ako sa tabi mo, kung hindi man para kailangan mo ng maiyayakan, makakausap man lang.

Be strong. Though I know you already are. SIS, mahal ka namin. Makakayanan mo ito. makakayanan natin ito. Take care always. We will see you soon.
