Meet An Old Friend: Timmy

Timmy and I came from the same university back in college. At some point, we were really good friends but due to some people who shall remain unnamed because they are unworthy of the mention, Timmy and I ended up as enemies.

Our personalities are almost the same so imagine nalang nung nag-away kami. Clash of the Titans. Literal.

Fast forward, 3 years later.

We have not spoken to each other. Not a single word. That is until one day, I opened my Facebook account and saw a friend request from her. I was hesitant at first but then I thought, it's been 3 fucking years, siguro naman kahit papaano eh we've both grown up na.

I approved her request.

A few months later, I got the courage to send her an IM.

She immediately replied. 

After 3 years, we were finally talking. We apologized to each other for everything that happened.

It felt good to finally make amends.

When I found out that she would be in SG the same time I was, I called her up and asked her to meet me. Since we both had busy schedules, we were only able to meet the day I was returning back to the Philippines.

She came to our hotel to pick me up and we went to the Merlion thing. Sabi kasi ni Mudra, if you go to SG but you don't go to the Merlion, it's like you didn't go to SG at all.






It was great to see Timmy again. Who'd have thought na sa laki ng Pilipinas, sa Singapore pa kami magkikita.

Sayang lang bitin yung oras because I had to get back to the hotel dahil check out time na namin.

But I'm sure magkikita pa kami ulit in the future. I'm positive of that.

MY REPLY TO YOU MY BIG BRO:

I often hear of people giving bereaved people advice similar to “you just need some time, after all ‘time heals all wounds.’” It is as if these well-meaning people are saying: “Just sit back and in time you’ll no longer have the sadness, anguish, yearning, guilt, anger, and fear you’re feeling now. They’ll fade away, and you’ll be fine.” Wow! is that time does NOT heal all wounds. A more apt saying is “IT’S WHAT YOU DO WITH THE TIME THAT HEALS.” Like any other aspect of life. You know how sorry I was when we met here in Sg. Thank you bro for understanding and yes we learned our lessons. BIG SMILE NOW! I love and miss you! seriously.
