eulogy:
to my fishy- Min. Ng E.H.- its life with us may have been short-lived but it was a time of happiness and joy... i will miss watching you as you glide in the blue waters of the little oasis in our cubicle...no fishy will replace your beautiful red tail...your deligtfully coloured fins...the wonderful gleam of your scales in the sun...your absence will not go un-noticed...may you find happiness in the after-fishy-life...
my fishy died... We suspect that Min. Ng E.H. was murdered. We came into the office to find its tail ravaged. We suspect it was the work of the two yellow fishies- Maliki and Min. Vivian. We've noticed how the two would go after the senior Min Ng. E.H. in the tank always going after its beautiful red tail. I suspect it was a crime of passion. Of jealousy. Of intrigue!
i was distraught...noticing my fishy at the bottom of the vase...i ran out of my cubicle as brave Flynn fished its lifeless form out of the vase and proceeded to flush it down to fishy heaven...
i was almost in tears...
on a different subject...it was Iman's birthday yesterday... we had a lovely dinner of chilly crab...and we sang a birthday song over dessert at windy clarke quay...our hands cupped over the wavering flame of the candle...as he closed his eyes and made a wish...i wonder what it was that he wished for...as he blew the candle out...i made my own wish...
for his life to always be filled with genuine and sincere love...for iman deserves all the happiness in the world...always...
it was a quietly celebrated birthday yesterday..just the way i like birthdays celebrated...
happy birthday sayang...
