he was like a father to me.
e one who brought me out on friday nights to kallang macdonalds drive thru for my happy meal n to collect all e snoopy figurines.
back then, friday became my most looked-forward-to day of the week.
e one who spent time playin toys with me.
e one who brought me to his place and cook so much yummies for me.
i wld nv forget this part of my life.
it was short but very memorable.
he filled e longing for parental love in me durin times when both my parents were busy at work.
as i recall, tears roll down my cheeks, uncontrollably.
years aft i grew up n we stopped gg out together so often, e tragedy happened.
he was diagnosed w cancer.
due to e delay in treatment, e cancerous cells spread.
e very last few yrs of his life, he fought.
n he fought real hard.
i saw how much
it had tormented him.
but he held on.
even to see his youngest son step into e next phase of his life; marriage.
during e most challenging period of his sickness.
i can stil recall how enthusiastic he was each time i called him to tell him tt im in e vicinity n am gg to drop by for a visit.
e times when i went to his place during cny n he wld cook so much yummies for me.
esp suan pan zi.
e last time i saw him was at e hospital.
he lost so much weight tt i cldnt recognise him in e ward.
it pains me so to see him in such agony.
today i received a call.
n i know im gg to miss him forever.
he won my love for him.
but lost e battle to sickness.
