I 'd rather we won't meet
Actually wanted to post a short description of my work place but something happened in the evening which left me feeling quite sad (for my friend)
Received an sms from an ex-colleague, telling me that my dear friend's (who is also my ex-colleague) dad had passed away peacefully this afternoon".
i was quite shocked to hear this news, though she sort of mentioned to me before that she was prepared for this outcome.
Yah, she can be considered the colleague I am most close to at my former workplace. We were more than colleagues-- good friends actually. Whenever I encountered problems, or feeling upset, she will be there to console me.
Could still remembered that before I left the company, the way she asked me if I will miss her. She even attended my farewell dinner though she must have more important things to do at home. Kind of feeling bad, cos now I can't be there to console her.
Actually we had thoughts of leaving the company together last year. but in the end she didn't. Cos she need money to cover her dad's medical fees. That's why she can't afford to risk quiting her permanent position there.
Though she never told others how serious her dad's illness was , we could figured out--- she often had to take leave and go to hospital. Yet she never let her work be bothered by her personal problems, for she still can jokes with us.
I guessed she did hope that her whole family could spend the Chinese new year together as last month, when we were ordering CNY goodies at our office, she sort of wondered out loud if her family could celebrate Chinese New Year together this year.....
在新年其间失去个亲人, 那滋味真不好受.
去年,我也没庆祝新年, 所以可体会到 "无法团圆" 的遗憾....
明天, 我应该又会见到我的旧同事. 因为我们都回去慰问她.
想起那晚在木船, 歌手们都祝福我们会早日团聚,
想起健华在唱"祝福" 时, 特别强调那句:
" 你和我重逢在灿烂的季节"......
唉! 真是早日团聚, 但我们不是"重逢在灿烂的季节"......
我宁愿没见面, 总好过在这种情况下相见........
Pray that she won't suffered too much, and won't exhaust herself these few days....
