This afternoon was well spent, I've got to say.
Caught up with my neighbour for about 12 years, Joshua.
He heard my brother and I talking downstairs and came down to join us. He played football with my brother, and I mean, it felt just like when we were back in primary school. Everyday during the holidays, without any fail, Joshua, Julius, korkor Darien and Hubert, my brother and I would all be downstairs playing soccer or badminton, or chasing birds. Then korkor Darien and Hubert went to army, they moved out. The rest of us just, well, grew up, we got busy, other stuff to do, blabla.
Only until today, Joshua and I were just talking about last time, and I just realised how much time has flown. I mean, we're all growing up so fast. HELL, I'm graduated from secondary school and I have prom in a week.
Today just felt so nostalgic I guess. Sitting on the stone chairs, under the same coconut trees, same chairs, same view of the old house, just at a different time. I'm afraid. Because I can feel myself growing up, and soon enough I know i'll slowly forget all these little details of when we were kids.
I've been feeling rather empty these few days.....
I don't really know how to explain it, but just- empty.
