Memories flooding

Guess where I am?
I’m at the TB control unit. Just had my x-ray done. I’m not being suspected, but one of colleagues got it therefore whole group of us had to go for the check.
This reminds me of dad.
Those tests that he had to go through and to be informed that it was Stage 4 lung cancer instead.
I am positive that I am all right.
But, what if, for some reason I am also diagnosed with it?
How will I react to it?
Will I be as positive as my dad? Whenever we asked if he was okay, he would laugh and replied, “If I’m sick I have to cure it!”
He wanted so much to live.
Many times I really wish he’s still around. I miss his laughter, his nonsensical talk, his long long stories, his red face after a bit too much beer, his snore… I miss him very much.
I miss him everyday of my life.
It feels like we have Thea to fill up the gap that my dad left. With her around, the place will be filled with joy and laughter.
Just like my dad, a party was not a party without my him.
He’s the centre of life, people would scramble just to share the same table as him.
I’m glad we have Thea. I’m so glad I have Thea.
