Went back for dinner yesterday. It’s daddy’s birthday. We supposed to go out for vegetarian dinner nearby, but he called last minute and asked us to take away KFC and eat at home cos he’s not in the mood to eat out.
He lost his gold chain. That gold chain followed him ever since I could remember. He stopped wearing it for a while and kept it in his bag wherever he goes before keeping it in his drawer when he pack for Japan last week.
So yesterday, he found out that it was missing. “That was the last gold chain that I keep and now it was gone…”
My heart broke, hearing what he said. The economy is bad, business is not good and he’s trying hard to make ends meet and suddenly, one of his most valuable things that he owns decides to disappear. Gold is very valuable now.. My godbrother told me that his gold chain is estimated to worth around RM6-7K now… and will go higher because the price of gold is increasing…
I can imagine… it’s like… when you only have RM2 left in your pocket to take a bus ride home, someone decides to rob you. It’s like… when you’re very hungry and wants to eat the last piece of chicken, the lizard decides to shit on it your dog decides to snatch it away and chew happily… it’s like… when your newly painted beloved 20 year-old car got stolen right at your doorstep while you’re sleeping soundly in your room… it’s like… okay… lame metaphors.. But you get the idea…
We don’t know how it just gone missing. We don’t know when, why, who and what made it vanished…
I hope he will find it back soon.
