A promise fulfilled. I had been promising myself to call the friend for a long time already once I was back in Singapore. I didn’t manage to do it during the semester break because of the fever and truthfully just plain lazy to talk to anyone, especially him, still with the worrisome feeling of something undone. And so I did call him last few days. It was a nice surprise that he picked up the phone and straightaway said my name! He recognized my voice amidst the rough voice that I had because of the coughing. I was really surprised. Let see, we haven’t been talking for almost a year and only a few short messages through friendster, and he still recognize my voice. It made me appreciate him more as the good friend. I’m touched.
He was fine and rather busy taking part-time classes, though at the moment feeling quite sick. I talked ALOT. There were so many things that I wanted to tell him and managed to some. I talked ALOT. 🙂 It really was a long time since we talked….
So anyway, it’s a burden relieved, felt so much lighter that I had called him and know, at least, that he is still the friend I know, the same guy I used to care about.
