last week...

the day i dreaded came... my friend's dad died. she was one of the closest friend that i have in med and we've been talking about her dad's condition pretty often. honestly, i didn't know how to approach her. i don't know how to tell her how to ready herself for it. we were both praying that that day wouldn't come. for me, at least not at this moment when everybody is trying to move heaven and earth to do all the loads of work we have in our hands since finals is fast approaching.

it really broke my heart.

help me pray for her and her family.

she was absent for almost a week now. the last time i saw her was in her dad's wake. she had kept her composure though but her eyes showed it all. (her dad was buried in Banaue, Mt. Province. they traveled him all the way to the north last wednesday. the burial was last sunday/ monday). i hope tomorrow she'll be back in school. i miss my seatmate.

i texted her this message the night she left for banaue

'sometimes, the best way to show how much we love someone is to let him go...'

.

i know things will never be easy and life will never be the same again...

but life has to go on

you'll be fine. we're just here for you.
