It was really an unintentional browsing. I saw the little notification at the left hand corner of my page, and decided to just take a peek to see how he was doing.
Those words displayed in front of me, really gave me a shock! It was difficult to believe. The three little letters, in acronym, universally understood. I skimmed the page, looking for postings which could enlighten my bewildered mind.
I scrolled the page further down, my heart thumping a little faster than usual. Time was limited, yet my curiosity was riding at the edge. I was digging for information, for I know, should I fail to get it then, it would bug me the whole day. Then I saw them, those words, speaking to me.
What a sad day indeed! But how come? When did it happen? Why did it happen to him, of all people? Wasn't he getting better as days passed? Didn't he said that himself? What exactly happened? Why wasn't I informed?
Oh, so many questions rushed through my mind in that short moment. No answers were offered there, I looked. Perhaps, I thought, those strings of ideograms might provide what little comfort to me by giving the answers to my questions. I quickly glanced at the clocked once again. It was time. I had to packed and get ready for school.
I said a little prayer. Wishing him eternal peace and love on his final journey. With a heavy heart, I signed out from that page. I would never forget that moment. Indeed, I might be slowest to know, perhaps, but it was better knowing that not knowing, at all.
R.I.P, you will be missed, dearly. I will always treasure the friendship that we had.
