Of the Merciless Virus and the Reunion [Part 2]
Back in Primary School,everything was a blur.Nothing was serious,and we had no expectations.No disappointments,save for exam stress,everybody was happy.Even when we are struck with death,or when death knocks on our door.I remember back in Primary School,my friend's mother died from breast cancer.At that time,we didnt know what cancer really was.It was nothing more than a bad flu.Not to mention the death of a mother,since at that time we really didnt know how to appreciate and everything's for granted.Even my friend himself seemed pretty fine with it.We even played cards during the funeral.I,for one,went with a heavy heart.Though i didnt know the magnitude of the situation,but i know feeling happy was definitely not the right thing to do.However,my friend seemed pretty fine with the fact that her mother was gone.To be honest,Ive never had any of my friends involved in any serious accidents,or diseases,or illness that might just cost their lives.Yesterday,someone i know was invaded by merciless viruses.

I dont know him very well.He's a year my senior.However,he is a good friend amongst my friends.Always coming back to school to help out with his previous CCA.To be honest,though he the illness might be fatal,ive never really liked that guy much.I mean,he's nice yes.But sometimes he just talks too much.Especially the time when he was telling us how he reacted to a drama member,trying to promote their CCA to him during a CCA Maze.He's downright arrogance,and the fact that he disregards people's feeling turned me way off.I dont deny that he's nice to hang out with,he's knowledgeable,but he's just a pain in the ass sometimes.

However,recieving news like that about somebody you know is always hard to swallow.How can it be,right?Afterall,he's not your enemy or anything.Death of him wouldnt make you king,or a lot happier in any way and form.Its a scary thing,to learn that viruses strikes without warning.When they are so close to you,you feel vulnerable to it.You feel as if the next person could be you.Afterall,he didnt show any signs of any illness.Not to most people's eyes at least.At first,he was diagnosed with a terminal illness.However,that was dismissed after some test i assume.However,it turned out that it is some rare disease,and it is another one of those fight or die situations.Cheer up,he's not gonna die.Perhaps if he fights as hard as he does when he is the president of the CCA,he might just pull through.But what can we do eh?Encouragements,supports,prayers.Just imagine it,if it happens to a friend of mine.How am i supposed to face it.Or deal with it.To fight the emotions within.Its hard,and i dont imagine myself pulling through.Its so unfair sometimes,you wonder where justice went.You wonder where is the word "fair".What is fair?You talk about death,and it seems so far away.But when it is right around you,or the people around you,you dont even see it until it is too late.You expect it to visit only when you are past 60.But when it strikes at this age,no matter whether you are the victim,or a friend of yours,you feel how small you really are in this vast universe.You are merely another lifeform,that is vulnerable to almost anything.And it is scary,to know that in reality,you are not that big after all.
