Tree

She has been sending people off and biding farewell to everyone. A few of them, whom to her doubt if they would ever meet again, gave her parting hugs and wished her the very best in her future journey.

There is this friend that she knows she is gonna miss on and off in future. Sorry to tell that she does not know his full name and she does not know him long. To her, he is like a big tree despite his small size, with its long winding roots living in the soil of everyone's heart. She likes the spark in his eyes the moment he dragged a chair next to her and started telling her his story. She appreciates his sincerity the moment he quietly cleaned up all the mess everyone made in the kitchen and the house.

And all the delighted moments they share. She made a promise to herself looking at the airport shuttle tailing off her sight. She wanna be a tree too, a big tree that grows in her friends' heart, a reliable support now and always.
