For the heartfelt confessions...
a friend was telling me about her mixed feelings... anxieties, fear, sadness, complex feelings for her buddy.. whom she liked before and was not sure whether she still likes him or not.
It wasn't the usual story that sounded familiar.. and the little heart-wrenching feeling you feel for the unrequited love or not knowing wat to do w the complex emotions...
Cos its more complicated..
The friend is ill and needed to go for an operation.
The side effect of the operation: possible permanent memory loss.
The operation would be held one day before her exam ends.
We talked about this for quite a few occasions.
She struggled to meet him b4 the operation.. but she knows she would break down in front of him.. and din rlly know how to comfort him.
She finally toked about her greatest fear jus now...
And I was pretty shocked that she asked me this.. so .. directly... without any pretense...
I was shocked that she dared to ask such a difficult question to someone she hardly know..
Cos its rlly a tough question...
"wad shud i do if he forgets me?"
"forget the 9years of frenship..."I thought of this question silently to myself the very first time she told me about this ...
even b4 she asked me jus now..
I din rlly hve an answer that time.. was jus thinkin abt it.. I was more preoccupied with other tots.
And i replied her from the bottom of my heart, without any pretense.
I din wana try to console her that maybe he wont lose his memory.. blah blah blah..
I din wana assure her that he needs her to be there for him... anymore.
Its time to face the harsh real question, that we all try to make sense of...
"then build more years of frenship w him...
create new memories w him...
its a new beginnin for him... give him a chance... to know u again"And both of us felt the emotions stirring within us.
