to my dearest buddy

Dear Danial Triadi Yusof



I miss you. *This picture was taken during one of our Class Annual Car Wash Drive.




You were my buddy, my closest friend way back when we were still a Year 1 student in the Higher NITEC of Hospitality Operations, in 2007.




You knew I had to change, and you were there to guide me through it, through the pain and hurt. Didn't you realised how much you had impacted me ever since...? :(




You were sad, and I was there for you. I was sad, and you did the same too.




We made stupid jokes and made a fool of ourselves, but we were still happy people.




You encouraged me all these while, though there was once we both lost our cool.




But slowly through the months, it seemed as if I, no it's we, have lost you along the way. Like as if you fell through the cracks when we didn't had our eyes on you.




My dearest buddy, Danial Triadi Yusof, I miss you, so does everyone from our class HA/HK.




I was hoping I could see you for the last time before everyone else's go their own ways.
I was hoping we could all share our last laughter during the ceremony.
I was hoping we would smile and wink at each other, with the mischevious sparkles in our eyes.



But apparently, it did not happened.
You, my dear friend, you weren't there to witness it all.




It felt so odd, after that, like the story wasn't completed, a fullstop that went missing after the comma, the book without the cover.




I am beginning to feel the emptiness now, your presence.




I would really hope to talk to you soon, to catch up with you soon.




Your Sincerely
The AWESOME JAWS* WHO MISSES HER BUDDY.
