I still remems vividly the day I was offered this haven, and I have been grateful till this day.
We've been through fire-fighting, gourmet 'eat-me~ eat-me~' food, lotsa tortoise laughing at turtle bits, and what nots in the short time we've been togets. Juz like a family. It's a rare treasure that one doesn't find easily. I have it. But why do I have to come to this crossroad where I may have to give it all up? I may sound v stupid here, but then again, who hangs their dirty laundry out there for the whole world to see? I release bits n pieces to peeps closer to home, like Drugs & JoNan; perhaps BFF has a fuller picture. But not my other frens. BECOZ I CAN'T STAND PITY.
Call me proud, call me watever u like. I think I would v much prefer to be referred to as 'that Bitch', instead of 'that poor thing'. I know full well I'm not the worst case there is, but everyone has their own hell to bear. I can get out of it. I can. I must. For me, for ppl I love.
When I was younger, I always thought I have the power to protect loved ones. But now, older (not much wiser), I find my armour like, abit ponchek.
Yes, in the midst of changing my fate. But it's 3 long years. Can my parents wait that long? I seriously dunno the answer. But I will still press on for that 50% chance.
Another reason I may bail out is coz I have blew my chance. I am not the gem that was picked up, and I will nvr be polished to be the shiniest diamond. I have no contributing factors, except blind loyalty. But this is not a quality much appreciated over a piece of paper, and I have nothing else to offer. My confidence is dipping. I dun like to be a burden.
I know I will miss it even more so after, juz like how I miss my Polo counterparts. This insight makes it even harder for me to decide. But we all gotta cross the hurdle ourselves.
