Not a long weekend...

*zHigUo + xiNhUi = kUkU & LaLa*

In a glimpse... the long weekend is going to be over....

Many things happened during this long weekend, things that we didn't anticipate. Baby's grandma passed away on the 30th, around 4.30pm in the afternoon. But it was only after work when we were at bishan, deciding what what to have to dinner, when his mom called and told us the news. Baby immediately looked very lost, and we didn't have anymore appetite liao. But baby still had to eat something before heading off to his grandma's house, so we went to the coffee and settle our dinner in a jitty.

Baby sent me home and headed off to fetch his mom to his grandma's place. It wasn't appropriate for me to go together as his grandma just passed away and she haven't been placed into the coffin yet. So I went home to inform mom and dad, but it wasn't a shocking news as we expected this sometime ago when the doctor said baby's grandma didn't have much time left. She was with similar condition as my grandma, they both had cancer, and they lost the battle against the evil cancer cells.

Last night I went to the wake with baby's car, hoping to help in anyway I could. Last night Baby's secondary school friends, and superiors came to the wake. I didn't manage to help much, only folded some joss paper, then had to help baby attend to his friends.

Today, baby received 5 blankets at the wake, you know, instead of wreaths, chinese likes to send blankets to wakes as a gesture of respect. The 5 blankets were sponsored by temple, my cousins, and my friends. Because they regarded Baby as a member of our temple, so they all chipped in to buy the blanket. This evening, daddy, mommy, and along with the temple uncles and aunties went to attend the wake too. Daddy said its only right to attend the wake, as last time when grandma passed away, baby came to help out everyday.

Baby is grateful to everyone, but mommy said he didn't need to say" thank you" to them as this is formality, and chinese beliefs says that such things no need to say thanks de.

I feel that in this phase of our life, we are experiencing alot of things. I feel that baby have been through alot of things with me, and our relationship have turned out even stronger and steady. I'm really glad that I met baby, and will be spending the rest of my life with him. I'm thankful of the fact that my parents and close friends recognise him as a very good husband to be of mine. I'm so proud of baby, and thankful for what I have now.

Anyway, Baby won't get to stay at my place for a week. Daddy says that he has to wait till next Saturday, which is the lunar fifteen, when we get an amulet from our god, then baby bathe with the amulet liao, then he can step into our house. I'll miss baby dearly.... it feels so uneasy when I have to sleep alone. I can't help but realise how important baby is to me....

Miss you baby!....Drink more water okie?....
