innocence

I have a cousin, Jac, who lives just 15 minutes away from me. I have another cousin who lives in Penang, Jess. They're both 13 years old, and very very close to each other. They see each other only during special occassions and during school holidays, when either one family travels to the other state to visit the other.

So the other night, while we lepak-ed on the sofa in my living room, (Jac's spending a few nights in my place to finish her school projects) Jac suddenly asked me;

Jac: Yvonne JieJie, do you read Chinese?

Me: Uhh.. No? Hahah! But I can read REAL easy ones..?

Jac: Oh. Hahah! Jess sent me this text in Chinese. *makes a face* I don't know how to read. Think you can help?

Me: Come, gimme your phone. I'll TRYYYYYY...

*It was short, with only about plus minus 15 characters. I read everything out loud, coz I was slow, one word-two seconds. When I finished, I DID-YOU-SEE-THAT?!-I-CAN-READ-EVERYTHING!-ed. What an accomplishment. Bwaahahahah!*

This was what:
"Shi huan yi ke ren, zhi yao mei tian kan dao ta, jiu hui hen kai xin hen kai xin.
I like you, Jac. And we're gonna be best cousins forever."

Maybe it was the night. Maybe it was my mood. Maybe it was something else, I dunno. But it touched me, that text. Jess was only expressing her love for a cousin she missed very much. (heyy kenapa I takda receive a text like that huh?) The innocence I saw in it. The sincerity. Dunno.

Lemme ask you; when was the last time you ever expressed your love to anyone else? Family or friend? Text or no text?









You don't remember? Go dig your nose!

Oh, then you're gonna ask me back, when did I last say 'I love you' to someone?
Bluek! Not gonna tell youuuuu! But it's certainly recent. And no, it's not to my boyfriend. Bleh.

So people, if you love someone, go ahead and say it. And make sure you mean it. If you miss someone, tell that fella. If you don't like someone, you keep quiet. Then you bitch about that fella. Bwaahahahah! I'm jokinggggg!

Here's a shoutout to everyone I love and care about!
(no names in particular.. coz I'm sure you know who you are!)
"AAAAIIIIIHHHHHH!!!
LLEEEERRRRVVVV!!!
YYOOOOOUUUUU!!!
banyak-banyak!!!"

Okay, your turn;
"AAAAIIIIIHHHHHH!!!

LLEEEERRRRVVVV!!!
YYOOOOUUUUUU!!!
banyak-banyak!!!
TTOOOOOOOOO!!!"
