I wanted to blog about what I did yesterday and today. Then something just changed my life.

I received an sms from Aaron. He asked if I knew what happened to Clara. I said no, then he told me she passed away. At that time.. I was with Jonathan and his friends at Fish N Co having a birthday dinner. I thought he was joking. I mean, how can it be true, how can someone I know who is my age be dead?

I didn't believe him. It just had to be one lousy joke. Then I called my mom's place to ask if my sister knew about it. She had already told my mother. Then the truth set in. My emotions went crazy; I didn't know what to feel.

Tomorrow is the wake. I'll be going there with Aaron. I expect all her ex-classmates and teachers will be there.

And to think, I had wanted to ask her to do me a favor and before I could, she's gone.

I'm not close to her but my heart aches when I think about her. I can't comprehend the pain I will feel when someone closer to me passes away.
