LUNCH

The food court was abuzz with people. Smartly dressed men and women from nearby offices, weekdays shoppers with their prized bargains, young couples walking hand in hand...

Then, amidst the crowd, I saw him; This stranger...he walked past, with his daughter holding on to the edge of his t-shirt and his son in his arms. My eyes were glued to them. I smiled to myself. It reminded me of you and the kids. All my thoughts went to you. And suddenly, I wished you were here. I wished so hard till a heavy feeling came crushing my chest.

Though your absence is driving me nuts, it has somehow made me realize how much you and your kids mean to me. See you soon, B. I can't wait.
