Paalam, Askal

sad. auntie texted me that askal already passed on last sunday due to tumor and peanut, yesterday, was crying beside askal. wala na syang kalaro, wala ng kaagaw sa pagkain.

i can feel auntie's sadness because askal is one of her babies. she treated askal as her own. she just saw askal on the street and seems like she's lost. auntie's compassionate heart took on, called her, opened the car's door and surprisingly, she went in. that is why lola named her, askal.

whenever we talk to auntie over skype, askal is always present and greet us with her cheerful american accent "arf arf". i was excited pa naman to meet her when i visit auntie in the US.

askal, thank you for the joy that you have brought to auntie. you will surely be missed..
