Tribute to E.L.K

Today is 1st October 2007 children's day...Today is also the day my uncle passed away...
My uncle is (even though should be past tense, I cannot accept it yet..) 30 years old...We grew up together, with many memories of us playing at the house, him bringing me to the stall nearby to buy food, we cooking crap at the backyard..He will always remember my birthday even though I always forget his... He bought me a necklace that I never did wear but now looking back, it will be one thing I cherish from him..
We did not meet frequently once we grew up but things will not change... I know his illness is an ongoing battle since young but it did not dawn upon me until the recent relapse he had... I went into Malaysia to visit him and I was really shocked to see how much he had changed...His looks.. He did not look like the uncle I had played with but he is still my uncle deep within...We talked and I told him that I will bring my bf to show him end of the year and he said he will bake cakes for me... Why can't he wait? I still want to eat his cakes..How can he leave me? Yes he has left to be with God but I still can't accept it...
This is my uncle, the funny thing is he doesn't like me to call him uncle coz he doesn't want to sound that old... So he was made to call me Aunty instead.. Haha he refused... So he is still stuck with the Uncle tag... This is my Ah Lip Jiu Jiu...
Rest in God..I will miss you...
