Dear Yeye,
It’s me again. I’m sorry I haven’t wrote to you in a while but you know how busy my schedule is. I hope everything is alright there and Ngin Ngin isn’t driving you crazy as usual. Tell her that I miss her and that I am sorry for getting mad at her for calling me Susan. You know Yeye, I’m sorry for being ashamed of talking to you sometimes. I think if they hear me talking to you, they might think I am crazy. Honestly, sometimes I feel like I am going insane since you left. There were so many things I never got to tell you, so many things I should have had the patience to listen to. You were always so full of wise yet caring words. Despite your age and strict following of tradition, you never had the stubborn mindset of belittling others. You always respected people’s beliefs, even if they went against yours. Yeye, sometimes, I wonder how Dad is so stubborn compared to you. I thought the younger generations were more accepting and modern. I miss you Yeye, you weren’t there a lot when I was growing up and I took you for granted because I never developed a close relationship with you. But your passing affected me like no other and I don’t understand why. Maybe it’s the deep gut feeling of regret of not taking advantage of the opportunities I had to spend time with you. Yeye, I’m glad you are at a better place now. I wasn’t there to see you in your last few days but one of the cousins tried to skype you to me when you were at the hospital. I cried so hard after that call because I never saw you so weak. You were convulsing, shivering and you barely recognized me. It would be selfish if I asked you to stay because I probably would have just took it for granted again and you were in a lot of pain. Yeye, I know you are in peace now and the legacy you left behind will always be here in all of us. Our family is the truest testament to what you have achieved in your lifetime. From a swarm of grandkids who are all so uncommonly close, to a business that will sustain us for generations to come and finally, a mentality that you have passed to all your children and grandchildren is to be humble, honor your family and respect everyone around you.
Love,
Brit
