But, this I have to record it here!
She was sitting on my lap, in front of the lap top when suddenly, I felt this strong sense of attachment towards her again..
And I said, "Ting, when Jie calls back from Australia, you must talk to jie, okay?"
And she nodded, "Okay,".
I wonder if she understood that that will be our way of communication for the next ten months.
Soon after, she said quietly,
" 謝 謝 姐 姐， 婷 婷 愛 你“
First, I was shocked and demanded her to repeat it. She did. Naturally, I was teary again. Ting, don't you understand?
I love you too!
" 爸 爸 回 來 了” I told her.
She splurted,
" 婷 婷 怕 怕 爸 爸“
" 為 什 么？”I was astonished.
" 爸 爸 會 罵 罵 婷 婷 不 要 玩 computer,"
OHMYGOD! Such a perfect sentence! I was elated and quickly related that to my dad! He guffawed.
He will be fine without me, he has her.
As for me, I'm clueless on how to adapt to my new life without her.
I'm terrible at adapting. Experience tells me that. Severe culture shock (thanks mengs for the term =p) strikes whenever I start off at a different environment.
Shifting to secondary life took me one whole year to settle down, this, 1Z5 will attest to.
Moving on to college took me one month.
Depression. Crying. Looking back wistfully at memories.
Transition period.
Is. Terrible.
PS: This post is straying away from the title.
PPS: I love you !

Mengs: I have no idea who thought her to say that. She startled us all the time with things she pick up from her surroundings. It's just that I feel sad to miss out on all the fun things she learns to do, it's a phase. It's just a period.
