my ride.
it's not easy to see life being sapped away slowly from someone you know, even if it is someone you ain't very close to. no matter how dear or undear the person is to you, it's sad because there are just some things u assume are permanent fixtures of life --- that they will never change or cease to exist.
yesterday at work, i received a call from my brother. my 5th aunt called to say my grandma may be in danger and ask as many of us to go down asap.
earlier that moment, daniel was giving a horrendously charcoal face for a customer complaining that i gave him the wrong information. following that moment, jason (the data boy) slapped me, not literally of cos, with 2 forms which i din get approvals for.
everything has to go wrong at the same time. i squatted down to get a hold of myself. and all irene and belle (the perms) could react was a *horror*-dont-squat-down-here but aso cos i was near the recept thus in public and the big bosses' view. -_-" then again, you can't blame them cos they noe nothing that happened to me in that mere 10 minutes.
a simple touch or word of concern from xiang or dorcas sent me sobbing uncontrollably. so much so that i couldn't speak to daniel and adrian (the managers) when they repeatedly ask why i was crying and if it is because i called the above customer and he scolded me or if it is another customer. (it is not uncommon seeing ppl cry cos of customers. some customers are just freakingunreasonable challenging. then again.. on the other hand of the spectrum, hurhur.. balance statement some customers are really nice.)
they let me off work earlier. luck was on my side i guess cos i got both approval codes without hiccups. and i also called the (above) customer to apologise and he was really nice about it, saying it is not my fault and stuff. my lucky day.
my grandma is okay now, for the time being i suppose. just one night before, i went with my brother and parents to visit her and she seems so much better then. then again, just this chinese new year, she seems perfectly fine. she herself is saying things like helping her change clothes and cutting her hair. my aunts are secretly letting her drink some water (even though we shld not and she is on drip already).
my 5th aunt said she has not much time already so why let her feel so uncomfortable (not letting her drink some water)? it makes some sense.
its saddening to see her life being supported by an uncomfortable looking oxygen mask. if you must take her life away, take it but spare the pain.
life is so cheap and so fragile.
