When something begins, something ends. Every beginning has an ending. Every start has its stop. Is it time for me to bid farewell to my friend? How I met him at the most unexpected place in the most unexpected time, is how I'm gonna be saying my sad goodbye.
Sometime last week, I had to see this friend to give him some stuff he forgot to bring from office. And so we met and had dinner. After dinner, he had to stay near the place where we ate for him to hail a taxi. On the other hand, I had to go in separate direction from him as my flat is only a walking-distance. After walking a couple of steps, I heard him shouted my name. I turned my head back and saw him waving his hands. Is that waving goodbye for real? Could that be his final goodbye? I didn't want to but I waved back at him and half smiled lest he'll wonder about sadness in my face. But what is obvious cannot be hidden.
It was not so long ago when we first said our surprising hello to each other...New year to be exact...But the trouble with hello is saying goodbye...But what really heals my heart is saying goodbye means another hello. After all, this world is just a small palce. It could be that we may not see each other forever. But, this I can say, he will always be a part of my life, a part of who I am and he will always be in my heart as my friend. Some people are never meant to be forgotten.
For whatever may everything could end up to, I'm surely gonna be missing him. He could tell why. I could tell why. Some people could tell why. He once told me that someday I will miss his being 'makulit' and yes, I couldn't agree more. =)
