i miss you.

"It's been the longest winter without you. I didnt know who to turn to..."

I was listening to this song on the bus, and there comes the memories with my grandmother again. New year is coming, I spend every single new year with her. and i mean it, EVERY SINGLE new year.

This is gonna be the first time i'm gonna spend my new year without seeing her, greeting her, hearing her high pitch-ed voice, hearing her laughter and getting her blessing, her ang bao, and feel the warmth of her hand.

What is it gonna be like? A new year without her. Will everyone still gather together and go 拜年 together?

Everyyear, without fail, we rent a bus, so that the whole family could go praying (ancestors)together. But this year, we are going to pray our respect to her.

Flashes and thoughts of my ah ma's last look. the whole process. When I received the call, to say that grandma passed away, on the way to her house, to see her for the last last time, the process of praying our last respect to her body, on the way to cousin house to get her photo, the time where i just stood beside her body; praying and chanting, hoping for ah ma to get a better after-life.

I still remember when I was in primary 6, I drew her a card on her birthday. she was so happy. And the day when my aunties and uncles were cleaning the closet, i saw the card.
immediately, tears rolled down my cheeks. it's a drawing of me and her, i can still remember clearly, i colored the colour of the face wrongly and i liquid the whole face white. It was so funny and embarassing when i gave her the card.

I remembered she said," Care-la, Kiang lorh."

...means, cara is smart or in another sense good girl...

Tears .
