:: Out of the blue this morning, I grabbed my mobile and send a message to Kelvin. I don't know why or what made me. It's just a moment thing. I just wanted to say hello, honestly. I don't want apologies, I don't want another arguement or trying to prove who's right or who's wrong. Like I said, I just wanted to say hello. A lot of shit has been rolling around lately, more than enough, and me wanting to say hello to an old friend isn't shit. So he replied and asked how was I doing. We were just messaging for a while. It was pretty weird cos we've all been bombing each other so much previously, and everyone knows that it isn't worth it but we being stubborn people just refuse to give up or give in. I've always appreciated people who has cared at least once when I knew them. And I appreciate him. He had helped me as much as I've helped him, and we've laughed just as much as we've cried. The endless smoking breaks in school at the 9th floor till late nights, and the conversations and little secrets we discussed and argued about somehow seems a long time ago. A long time ago, but freshly living in my memory. I still remembered the UNO days at Starbucks and the 9th floor. The pictures we all took every few minutes. Or how we groove to Jamiroquai while in that tiny little room. Is it worth it? I knew the answer a long time ago. But wasn't able to acknowledge it due to my anger. Sometimes you just need to say a little hello to make it all alright. ::
