A veryveryvery sweet letter from my loveliest crystal friend.
euniee = eunicengshiqi
eunarco = eunicesinhuiru
i have something to say
eunicengshiqi and eunicesinhuiru.
i don`t care how gay this sounds.
i miss both of you so so much.
and with all the warmth and gratitude and
nice sugary pink fluffy powerpuff girl feelings
from the depths of my heart,
i really really love the both of you.
it`s nice to think about our one too many pictorial shots in all
the weird corners around college.
i have everything kept in an album i intend to show my kids.
we shall be known as the three retards that conquered the world.
and i`d be able to tell my grandchildren that these were my bestest bestest friends at one point of time in my life.
i miss how we gave eunarco a melodramatic candle-lit farewell,
and the three of us spent the entire night walking
round and round the awfully red acrylic track in school talking about our deepest fears,
and how uncertain the next few years seemed to be.
i miss how euniee and i have psychic telekinetic powers and could read each other`s minds with a subtle wink or grin.
our zebra tales were the best, euniee.
i miss seeing eunarco off for the first time,
and wondering with euniee if eunarco was gonna burst out in tears past the departure gates.
i remember texting eunarco when we were on the train back,and it only hit me then that she was going away.
suddenly all that teasing about eunarco bawling like the big baby she always is wasn`t all that hilarious anymore.
i miss how we celebrated euniee`s birthday at a very smokey seoul garden,
and how the three of us and samuel spent much of the time talking about God and life and how everything was crumbling.
it felt nice to know we had each other;
it sucked knowing that we had to see eunarco off again.
euniee loved her pink princessy presents.
i miss how we spent an hour or so roaming the terminal like lost kids,
taking photos with lost baggage,
running around,pushing each other on trolleys
while trying to dress like old italian mafia with eunarco`s black coat and my oversized shades.
i miss walking to mrs afzal`s with euniee,
and whining about anything and everything,
because at the end of it all,the all-knowing wise old euniee would drop me a deep sentence or two to keep me going.
i especially miss how euniee was so sincere in drawing me back to God and my faith with her encouragement,
especially when i was just so darn tired with everything in my life.
i miss hiding behind the xylo and interrogating samuel with euniee during rehearsals.
i miss packing the spaceship over and over like we had ocd.
i miss my way too many surprise presents in a single day that you girls bombarded me with in j2.
i miss how we`d meet up at unearthly hours in the morning in j3 just to meet each other for a quick breakfast before splitting for our temp jobs.
we had so much fun.
but i love you girls for more than these.
i love you for getting me through the sucky boys we used to complain about behind the marimba.
i love you for hugging me whenever we sprang into waterworks during post-concerts and hand-overs.
i love you for praying with me, and for praying for me.
i love you for putting up with my childish tantrums, even though you could`ve just walked away all those times.
i love you for the many hours spent bearing my soul, and weeping and whining.
i love you for having me for who i was,or rather, what i was.
for seeing me through really dark times,and for sharing so much joy in my life.
things may feel really different now with euniee in pulauboonlay and eunarco in jupiter.
but i still thank you for our tiny bubbles of msn chats,and text messages that come up at the most random of times.
(like how euniee usually starts with oohlala,and how it`s so darn difficult to catch eunarco with the stupid time difference.)
even as i write this and try not to burst into a bout of eunarco`s loud wails of "I LOVE YOU ALL SO SO MUCH",
eunicee and eunarco,i love you.
