sick

I'm sick. I hate falling sick.

Throat is itching like hell and i'm having a runny nose. Coughing too. :( Slept at 9 last night, without eating much dinner.

When i was little...

I remember asking mum to take that horrible tasting medicine on my behalf, even though i was the one who was sick. I remember dad/grandma/mum chasing me around the house and forcing me to take my medicine. I remember dad teaching me how to swallow medicine tablets (after crying and pleading and threatening to throw up all over the floor). I remember crying everytime i feel unwell. I remember wanting people around me to care for me and comfort me when i'm sick.

Today, i felt like a child all over again and today, you had to fly off to Jakarta.

I wish you didn't have to go away today.
