The Scar That Brings Back History
I had a deep cut on my left sole of my feet. It's actually not a serious injury but I got it while playing a game of water captains ball for the Home Team Healthy Lifestyle event.
I tried to hit the ball away and I jumped up high, and landed onto a metal rod which was inside the water, resulting direct contact. I was bleeding profusely but the blood stops gradually. However, the pain doesn't.
Suddenly, a whole lot of things came into my mind. It reminds me of that moment when I was still with Auntie Emily, where I was supposed to bring her for fish spa but she told me she had suffered a deep cut on her sole of her feet. I was frustrated that she didn't tell me about the cut but she assured me that she was fine. That fateful day, we went for Prawning instead.
Now, the pain was not worst as before but each time I looked at the scar, the same historical images will shuttered across my mind. Auntie Emily's smile will remain in me for that short moment. The feeling of missing someone was so strong that I realized how weak I was when I told myself that its time to forget her.
Sadly, she is always in my mind no matter where I go. I still love her I guess. Yet, she is not by my side any longer. If I could have a second chance, I'm willing to do a better job as her guy but I can't accept the pain that I had inflicted her during the past, that i will have no guts to continue that mission impossible task.
Jeremy told me umpteen times that in order to move on, the first thing he gonna do to my room is to throw that puzzle picture that Auntie Emily had done for me for my birthday. Of course!! No way!!
I guess, no one can really replace this girl who is the one that makes me dream of a better life, a better future and a desire to ensure that life - is to live happily ever after.
Auntie Emily, hope you're doing fine even though you don't read these words of truth from a Uncle's heart.
I missed her, deeply, I just realized.
