Passion

25/01/2010

3 months-remember when there's just the beginning of this relationship, my friends told me, 'Beware, the feeling will fade, sweet things won't last long.. Soon, both of you will feel bored and no longer be so sweet as now.. This is very common for every couples, you have to prepare yourself, to encounter a day when there is no more passion, but just habit and responsibility..' One of them said, 3 months was her record. I took a deep breathe, tried very hard to imagine, that after 3 months, what will we become.. My Mr.R and I.. How sad it is, if this is the tradition, and I can't make any changes..

And now, more than 3 months that we have been together, so grateful that we are still been so sweet as the beginning, well, seem to be sweeter and closer than that.. After the hustle and bustle that we have encountered for all these while, we have learned to understand and tolerate, and found ourselves loving each others more and more in every single day..

He likes to hold me tightly on his chest, said afraid that I'll run away. I smiled to him, doesn't he know that I have lost the strength to escape, since the day I'm falling in love with him..

The Answer

Lucky- Today i went to the nephrology ward, which I most afraid to enter, because the patients are those with the same disease as me, but their condition is worse, almost at the end-stage where their kidney function is impaired, and they have to consume high dose of corticosteroids. I always avoid myself from entering it, afraid to see how much suffers the patients need to endure, which I might have a probability to encounter too.

In the isolation room, I saw a patient looking at me, and we smiled to each others. She is a young Chinese lady, 28 years old, and she is very pretty, with long hair and fair skin. She is the only patient who can still smile and looked so happy and energetic. I saw a man sitting beside the bed, and I can guess that he must be the reason. She told me she first developed the symptoms at 13 years old, her father quickly sent her to the hospital, because her mother is also a known case of SLE, who passes away when she was only 3 years old. Very unfortunately, she inherits the same illness from her mother. She told me a lot about her story. But i noticed that she always cheerful even though there's sad part of the story. She told me the handsome gentleman sitting beside is her husband, and I asked her whether they have children, she said they are still hesitate, afraid to pass down the disease to their offspring. I asked her husband whether he minds? He laughed at me, and asked me back what should he mind? Everyone will fall sick, he said, his wife is the only woman he wants in his life. She smiled at him sweetly. I told her she is very lucky to have such a nice husband.

And finally, before I leave, I told her actually I am also having the same illness. She was really surprised, and she asked me, 'Do you have a boyfriend?'. 'Yes,'I answered. 'Does he mind?'. The next question she asked. I didn't say anything but just smile... 'You are lucky too,' I think she got the answer. ^^
