As usual for years, we cut cake in celebration for Mothers' Day & Fathers' Day. Not sure of when did this little custom came about into my family. The most excited member of all is little Sharilyn. She just enjoys the moment of cutting the cake. This year is different, mum is no longer in the family photo. As i downloaded the photos from my digital camera. I can sensed the emptiness in dad. A complete family photo it will never be. At times, it just pains me to see the emptiness in dad. For so many years, he had been living with mum. Now i can feel how helpless and empty his life is. I can see no anger in him nor the quick temper that he usually behaves in. This is a complete different dad whom I have know all these years.
Many things are still like a dream. I have yet come to terms in losing my mum. I so wish that all these is just a dream. However, it isnt. I will never wake up from this dream. Hopefully, time can wash off and lessen my pain. But I clearly know that time can never wash away my loss. For now, I will try to pickup my pieces and continue with my life.
