I couldn't sleep...
It's 02:50am and I wonder if I'd wake up six hours later with puffy eyes to work like I did for the past one week. We had a public holiday last Friday. I had planned to bring him out for dinner somewhere nice. I wanted to bring him to this quaint place I chanced upon not too long ago. It didn't happen of course.
The television is showing Sex and The City since 10:00pm till now. I recalled watching series after series of this drama on my iBook together with him over lunch and dinner back in Southampton. We couldn't afford a television set during the first year but it didn't matter much. We found a TV-Link website that caters free online movies during our second year and I remember how thrilled we were whenever those movies we wanted to watch streamed successfully. We'd usually prepare our meals while waiting for the streaming to complete. Then we'd fix up the small square foldable wooden table (the one we brought over from Edwina House to Bencraft Court), place our meals and cutlery in pairs on it. The foldable table had a green checkered plastic mat embedded on it. We'd wait for each other to be seated and we'd let the movie play while we enjoy our home cooked meal together. Simple things like this made our day. It's really bittersweet. Everything seems so surreal...
There was never a day we ate our meals without each other. There was never a day I woke up finding him missing the next day...
I thought I'll never miss England. I never quite did actually but I might cause I miss those wonderful moments I shared with him back in those days...
I hope I'll have a better day at work later.
I pray I'll get by.
