Happy Birthday Dearest

She was my first ever best friend. She was the only person i could relate to when i was a newbie in school. That happened when my mom transferred me to a new school when I was 7 going on to 8. We were very close and used to go here and there with each others family. She even came with me and my family to Kundasang! How cool was her parents to allow that at a very young age huh?hehe and her dad always brings me and my cousin Annabel to go swimming with her at Water World. It has been ages but the memory is still very clear. I still have the pictures at home. We used to hang out at each others house all the time. As time pass,when we were post to different high schools, we didn't lose contact but we were not as close as before not until we were about 15 or 16. My friends and I even ditch school one day and hang out at her place one day and managed to go back to school in time for our ride to pick us up from school! LOL! Lost of crazy things happened that day but we were at the age where we wanted to experience things in every way~.
During her last days before she went back to the Almighty,there were signs! People always say there are signs that someone is leaving us forever. As for her, she came to each and everyone of our house and hang out or just went out with us. She came to my house one day late night about 1am with another friend as she wanted to go to her boyfriends house. Her boyfriend and I was staying at the same neighbourhood. When she arrived at her boyfriend's house,he was fast asleep that he didn't hear her call so she decided to come to my house instead. I went out and we hang out outside of my house and she was saying that she felt cold as it was past midnight and the breeze was really cool that day and with the fact that she came with a motorcycle that night. I offered her water and she said ok! We were just having small talks and update each other with our lives as we didn't meet for quite a while. Soon after that she wanted to try and wake her boyfriend up so she left. We hugged and kissed before she left.
The day after came again but this time fell asleep watching TV and did not hear my phone ring! I am disappointed that that happened because if not i would have more time to spend with her because the day before was the last time I ever laid eyes on her!
Few days after her family was calling my friends and all to say that she was missing and cannot get through to her phone. We thought she was with her boyfriend and we didn't take it seriously at first but soon after we were hanging out at a usual place near our neighbourhood and he sister came to our place and ask us about her and we said we didn't see her or talk to her. We then tried calling her and all but we too cant get hold of her. Even her boyfriend does not know her whereabouts.
Almost two days have passed and we all got the worst phone call ever. A phone call saying that they found Joy's body. I did not believe what I heard on the phone! As soon as I hang up the phone, I got another phone call from another friend telling me the same thing and this time I hear someone crying on the background. My heart dropped and I was speechless! I didn't believe what I heard and rushed to my mom's room and told her what happened and I needed to lend her car. I drove to her house and I see familiar cars and faces. Most of my close friends were there and i shivered and my heart beat so fast! I parked and went down and consult my friends on what has happened.
Soon after that incident,next thing I know was we were all gathered in a church to mourn our loss. I even spotted a friend crying somewhere outside of the church at the corner. It breaks my heart to see a friend like that but then I was deeply hurt too. I felt like doing the same thing but I tried to be strong as i could to consult my friend. When things were cooled down,we head back into the church to attend the ceremony of our loss. As we pay our last respects,we all tried to hold on to our tears but as soon as we reached our seats we were bursting out our tears!
Our life continued after that but not a day that I stop missing her. She is always in the back of my mind. I miss you dearly and I do love u dearly my dearest friend. I pray that you have a better life there and you are in good hands! Like Erwin said You are lucky that you get to meet God first!^_^
Here's some of her pictures before she left us. We do miss her dearly no words can explain how much we miss her and love her.
