Sad day…

Wednesday, October 5th, 2005

Today it’s a weird and sad day for me..Only this morning my cousin mentioned to me, ‘Hey, your little bunny seems to be very weak…I’m afraid she’ll die…" That got me thinking almost the whole day today (when I had time to slow down from my work a bit to let my mind wander about a little), ‘Hmm..I think she’s going to die soon..It’s just a matter of time…’ Even when I was driving back home today from work, I kept thinking the same thing…As I approached my apartment and was about to turn the lock to open the grill, my cousin opened the door from inside…Hmm..tat’s weird, I thought to myself. She can’t be that excited about me returning home so late, well, I was supposed to cook dinner..but since I came home way after her…and she’d never ever greeted me at the door, it was very surprising for me. And the first thing she uttered to me was..your little rabbit has passed away………….And I got in and saw the cage with her lifeless body lying on one side at the cage corner………….I had to confirm…so I asked her…are you sure she’s not sleeping? I observed and saw no movements at all………..I didn’t know how I feel at that point in time…I thought perhaps it was better after all, since she’d always been sick and weak…but then seeing her dead carcass lying there, I couldn’t help but feel something eating away at my heart…It was later at the disposal of the body, that I really cried out, cos I knew then I’d lost Bun Bun forever………..and I recalled the moments spent with her, and how much I’d neglected her and stuff…It’s always like this…you only cherish something when it’s gone…and I guess I never quite learnt my lesson..Right now, I’m still not feeling any better…It’s 10 plus now and I’ve yet to remove my make-up, take my shower and stuff…I think I’ll do that now and go to bed…It’s been really tiring…Somehow it was a case of deja-vu when I felt like this last I lost someone to another world………but of course a rabbit I’ve had for nearly 2 months can’t compare to a human being…still it hurts………I hope I’ll regain my composure tomorrow…Goodnite Bun Bun……….forever………
