of a friend's passing and Ash and Fudge

was on the way to the car when i got a message from a friend.

all i saw was "you know haridah..." on the message preview. when i tapped on it, she wasn't asking me for haridah's number or to ask if she keep in touched or anything. it came out as "you know haridah passed away today? sharon told me today" and i stopped in my tracks.

my friend and colleague in my first ever job in kindy. the one who endured the scoldings and shoutings from That Woman. the one who i gladly helped to ease the working burden by preparing soem stuffs for her. the one who called me up last time just for the fun of it. the one who opened up her heart to me and i tried to help but i don't know how. the one who teaches me everything.

she passed away in the morning of 3rd of April. i don't know why or how. i just know that she passed away all of the sudden that i still doesn't wanna accept the truth. i still have her number with me in my phone. i don't know what to do with it. i should've keep in touch when i thinks about her last time. i didn't because i'm afraid and i don't know what to talk with her after so long. and now i regret it. no more Haridah. no more thoughts of getting to keep in touch.

she's special. she's not a malay but she have a malay name. she's chindian and she talks better hokkien than me. she have this sore-throat voice that i still kinda remembers.

i'll miss her.
i miss you. do you know that, Haridah? and i'm worried about her kids, them without any parents now.
may you rest in peace, Haridah.

plus, from M-R's Fb, i got to know that Ash and Fudge passed away too. no more Ash and Fudge to look forward to anymore. more licking on the face, no more walking next to you when you walk around the Cleft. miss you.
