Regi's first day of reservist 8 feb 2010

Today is the first day of torture for me..... Going to work myself using public transport. I am not a little princess neither am I a spoiled brat. It's just about waking up EXTRA early and fighting for a seat on the bus or train.

This morning decided to take a bus instead of train so that I can sleep throughout the 1 hour journey and yes, I was sleeping thru the whole journey. Haha....

But this is not the main thing, it's about Angeline. We always thought that to her, papa is someone for her to bully around, we are WRONG!!!

After today, I realized that papa is so important to her and she really misses papa very much. When she woke up this morning at 645am and realized that papa went out already and papa never wake her up to say bye bye to her, she was very unhappy.

And she also started to realize that papa is not coming back today cos he's staying in camp. That's the funny thing, it's not papa's first time to stay in camp but somehow this time round, it affects her badly.

When I called her this afternoon, she kept asking me "why papa never wake me up and say bye bye to me?" and when I told her that papa was rushing to go to camp cos papa was late. She kept quiet and I can tell that her voice was breaking when she talked to me.

In the late afternoon, papa called her and she kept asking "papa, why you never come home today?"....

By the time I came back after work, she was so happy to see me but I can tell that she is disappointed that papa was not with me. While telling papa "good night... 我爱你...." over the phone, her nose turned red and eyes became watery. And she started tearing. Anything that associated with papa - watering the plants, feeding the fish will bring tears to her eyes.

The worst part came when I sent her to bed with me. She started sobbing to herself. And when I asked her why is she crying.... She asked me "why so late papa not home yet?". She was still waiting for papa to come back at this point.

I explained to her that papa needs to stay in camp cos papa is going for exercise early in the morning. But that doesn't stop her tears from falling down her cheeks...

I told her papa will try to come back to see her if papa has the time tomorrow evening but nothing is confirmed. And papa will be back on Thursday afternoon if papa passes his exam tomorrow. Still doesn't help. Tears still flow down her cheeks without control. No matter how I pamper her, talk to her, distract her, nothing helps.

Until she asked me for papa's t-shirt. I asked her why she wants papa's t-shirt, she replied "papa can protect me". She kept smelling papa's t-shirt for papa's smell. And she wanted me to remind the maid not to wash this t-shirt cos she is going to hug it to sleep every night til papa is back from camp. This will be her
'臭臭' when she goes to sleep every night.

No matter how Angeline treats papa on any days, from this reservist, it just show how much she loves her papa and how much she misses her papa.













Papa, these pics will show you how much Angeline loves and misses you..... <3<3
