My Parents

Although now that both my parents no longer around, but they are forever in my heart.
Their laughters, their anger, their sadness - all expressions shall be with me till I meet them again.

When my mum gave birth to me, she was 36 yrs old and dad was 42 yrs old.
They were not well educated. Dad worked as a salesman and mum was a housewife.
Although we were not rich, but I was showered with a lot of love from them since young.

I remember when I was 4 yrs old, I started to follow dad to work. I would sit in the car and waited for him when he went to visit his customers. Then we would go to a petrol kiosk in Geylang where dad would meet his taxi's friends for coffee. We would also wash the car at there. Dad would take care of the external and I would take care of the internal.

During saturdays, I would go shopping with mum, visit my eldest aunty at a temple or go to mum's brother house. Then evening time, would meet up with dad and went home together.

I was a very daddy's girl. I followed my dad whenever he went. Even when he went for mahjong sessions at uncle's house. But I also very closed to my mum.. Cos I was her informer!! wahaha!!

I was very lucky compared to my other siblings. I remembered dad and mum brought me to Genting highland for so manytimes till I lost count. And I got most of the toys I requested..

As I was the youngest, my other siblings all were teenagers or even started to work. Thus, I was the only one who always around with my parents. Needless to say, I was the last one who got married in the family.

Before married, I would chat with them after dinner.We talked about anything. Sometimes during the chat, mum and dad would start to argue a bit and I would be the Peacemaker! After that, dad would watch his new and went to bed. Mum and I would stay on to watch other TV programs and started our WOMEN talk! Haha...
Think due to all these, we were even closer. And that should explained why their death hit me the worst.

There was so much more I wanted to write..
How I wish I can turn back the clock!
I missed you mummy and papa...
