I meet U** Sok Min

Sok Min is one of my old friend, a special one. We share the same class from primary school till first junior high. Al way reminding as a simple, special friend in my memory.

Sok Min was born special, a blessing? i guess so. When i seen how her mom cried in front of our class teacher defending her own child, begging for understanding and kindness from the teacher. Sok Min was a little cute big eyes girl back then, not much sound in the class, easily shy away...she is a slow learner, disable to focus and memorize what she had learn. She has 3 other older sisters who were all smart, talented and been the good grade students, yet she is different and always will be.She always get separated from us, going through a special class. But our country education system didn't gave much help to this people which included her.

yet she will always be very special to me...when we was study in first year of high school, my English teacher assigned some of the students to help these special student in hope they can pickup more...so i end up been the partner with her...teaching her to read sentences ...God it was a hard task for me and to her as well. she is a person who would remember A.B.C then if you add up D She will forget the A. But with patient and ...more patient and she try real hard,finally she can read the short passage in class to all us. When she read out slowly one word to another, i was so proud of her, may just like watching my own child learn to walk the first step...the same feeling may be....we actually bit other partners. When she finished reading, she say "thank you"holding my hands with her cold sweat hands ...felt like just miracle had happen..i was really happy ...felt like all serve the purpose. yes she was nervous but she made it

after this i was getting apart from her, going to different class, school system she get to the lower class, so most of the years we were just simple friend with simple greeting until we graduated, lost contact. continue with my own life, studying ...working...sudden grief slam on me, it was my grandpa death, during the memorial Sok Min actually turn out with her mom...oh now she had grown up much taller and look real beautiful. Smiling walking toward me, holding my hand again with greeting and try to console me with her simple words...not much...but it really helps, inside here, inside my heart. she is the only few friends that had came to me during the hours of grief. I really thank her for that. God had blessed her in simple manner, simple but not lacking in love, pure and kindness. which always shine through her.

time past by again...yesterday her mom past away, the news came by...now is my time to do the part...been a friend...alway shall be and alway will be
