When I first heard it, my heart stopped. I shivered.
It couldn't be true. It happened all so sudden.
But as hours pass by, I was forced into believing that it's real.
We got together that night, our close friends.
Cried,
Talked, and thought, and wished that it was just a huge prank.
But when the day came, I step into the classroom,
And see him not there, his spot. His place.
I looked around, everyone teared. Everyone broke down.
It is true. It is. It came out in the papers.
It happened, as all of them told me.
*
That night, I saw him for the last time.
He was as handsome as usual.
His face, was serene.
I looked around,
I see his friends, his bestfriends, family having breakdowns at the crematorium .
I broke down too.
Know this,
You are well loved,
Aaron Teo.
Rest in Peace.
I learn that life is so vulnerable. Life is so short. That people could just go like that.
Unfortunate events happens to good people. It is always like that, because I was once told that, God takes away those he loves dearly. I believe it.
I do regret that I didn't have enough time with him, but I do cherish the memories we, as classmates had together. The way you pronounced seahorse : 'seahooouuRse' and the fact that you talk about phones to me all the time. And the fact that your favourite shop is Pin Kee and you always always call me to come there..
I will remember you ...
Everyone will miss you, Aaron.
Especially us from P3. It wont be the same without you.
Rest in Peace ;
