I was contemplating to delete this blog.
No motivation to update regularly because I'm always on FB or Twitter.
But this procrastination prove to work for me this time.
This blog shall serve as the mirror for my inner thoughts for my sister, Ani who has gone to Colorado to join her family...its like a dejavu, been in this situation almost 2 years ago when she first left.
Her plan was not accomplised when she was expecting our little nephew Firdaus. She came back to join us - a great comfort for us but on the other hand, her life definitely had turned 360 degree and I could understand her frustration at times, being a single mom all far away from the support of a complete family.
Ani, we are glad to be there for you but I know our assistances, most of the time are not enough to substitute for your loss being away from your loved ones.
People asked around on ur status, people were so curious on what you were doing at home, and many more what people want to know about you here....I know its hard for you to have to tell the whole tale over and over again. I myself could not even utter a word if pple starts to ask bout you....i dont feel like saying a word.
Ani, we may looked as if we were nonchalant on your situation, but trust me, we REALLY care for you.
I would like to apologise for everything I did that might caused you to feel leftout. Been having flashback since you left on how busy I have been lately especially the months u were preparing to go back, that the next thing I would want to do on my rest day is to be with my family :(
I thought being in the same house is good enough for our bonding, I had overlooked how we should be going out alone often....sigh sigh. Just like those days when you were in Hougang, we would called up each other for dates.....I missed doing that!
Where was I all this while, eversince Firdaus came, we had very, really very few occasions together...I could only recall the time we watched THis Is IT movie....that was the last one...How long was that!?
Mak has told me how at times you were just too afraid to talk to me because I was having bad days, but trust me I never meant anything if I had raised my voice.it was not at you...I blew it out of my frustations on my workplace, colleague...etc......
I was too, quite reluctant to have few words at home with you especially from the beginning of this year, you were so busy doing ur own thing that I thought you were already in ur comfort zone...I just dont feel like distracting you..i dont know why.
i didnt realise you must be bored the whole day....I was already exhausted at the end of the day, that I didnt notice you were with me, for many times that I came home, only to eat, with d kids and then off to my room....forgive me...i didnt mean to neglect u...I conveniently took it for granted for your silence.
It is not easy to stay under same roof with so many people around, so many hearts to care for..but i have no complaints. Honestly i cannot get used to the quietness for not having both of u with us anymore....:(
I have never bothered if Firdaus will damage the household items, I think you were afraid that you will be a burden to us when you scolded Firdaus for getting near the tv console. U should have realised that most of the time I kept quiet because I dont mind it at all....so i hope you will stop feeling bad.
Maybe next time I will NOT keep quiet if i dun mind, pple might think I was very particular....Really, its just the opposite.
U r my sister, i thought you shld have known me better.
