It's just an accident

The year 1999 or 2000 when I was still an undergraduate in UK.

I constantly hung out with this group of friends from Singapore.

There was this time when a friend, Z, accidentally dropped something and apologised saying that it was a harmless accident..

Her boyfriend, J, funnily remarked that "People die in accidents".

In 2001, J, fell from five storeys and we lost a dear friend that night.
No one really knew what happened....

So what prompted my flashback... Z asked..

Saturday night, there was a case of suicide in the heartland.
A lady leapt from the 40th storey over some emotional argument with her spouse/boyfriend.


Somehow through the two unrelated events, it prompted my flashback.
Not much to say other than on nights which I'd like company with close guy friends, I'd wish very much that I have one more to call.....

J, you are sorely missed even after these years..
To rest of my cliche in Leicester namely, M,E & I, hope you guys still remember him too.
