Tears that poured for a week.

Last week my helper that was with our family for 21 years left. I didn't want here to leave of course, but she had to for her mother. Her mother's getting old and is needing company. It was a sad day for both of us.

In the night of June 6, we all new that she will be leaving the next day. I wrote her a letter and wasn't able to finish it because I can't. I can't finish it because I couldn't stop crying to the point where I can't hardly breathe. I put in the letter were memories. Good memories that happened and will never be forgotten. I guess I love her so much that it's really hard to let go. I never imagined that a day like this would come. She kept on joking about leaving, I really never knew that this time she was serious.

I woke up early. Dean had classes so he had to leave. He said goodbye and shed no tear. However, ate Cecil was crying a river. It was painful to watch. Then mum comes out and the hugged everything out. It was long and really painful. She kept telling mum to get shorter flight now because she won't be around anymore. It was really sad.

I took a shower and  got a shirt that she gave me and hopped in the van. It was really sad when she entered the van with her face full of tears.

We went to Resorts World to have a memorable lunch. We were with my grandma, dad, mum, Ate Ne (my other helper) and my aunt. Tears can't stop pouring.

We went back into the van. We saw a line in the airport and we stand in line. It was really a sad moment for everyone. I couldn't let go of her. I kept on hugging her and won't let go. It was really hard. I just couldn't. When she got in the airport, we rushed to the other gate to go in. We searched everywhere on where she is. We saw her in the check-in counter. She was all set. We hugged. We cried. We couldn't stop. But then she was requested to go to the gate. Seeing her walk with her red puffy eyes was really painful. She kept on looking back. And finally, she was gone. I couldn't stop crying since. For the whole week, I couldn't talk to anyone. I was just in my room crying. I stopped crying when I had to finish requirments for my college. And now, I could feel the tears flowing while I type. 

I really miss her dearly. I will see her again, just not soon. She's like my mom to me. I will never forget her. Never. I love her so much.
