18 years plus now that i finally feel that we were actually closer for once. Honestly.

How we used to go places together, how we always visit each other from time to time, how our mothers always get us the same clothes to wear, how we played 'handkerchief' and 'pepsi cola' and whatever other names we have for our games..
Were those the good old days or what? 

-

Just like the see-saw, we sat on it together, we shared laughters together, grew up together. At the same pace.

-

Today, i just sort of suddenly realised we're already all so grown up.
All of us, together.

Seeing as how one by one our cousins are married and now even have their own child..

Man, we're getting old. Lol. 
If only i could be a child again.. 

*~*~*

Anyways, was another cousins-day-out today, my bro couldn't join us though because he wasn't feeling well. So the 3 of us dragon-teens watched Next together, plus my cousin sister's bf who tagged along. And i actually just only found out about her bf today. 
Authors note: dun watch Next. stupid ending will blow you off. half literally.

After the movie, when her bf left, we sat down together and chit-chatted. It's surprising how all these years, we never really actually talk to each other about our personal love life and stuff. And somehow, we just did, today. I mean, more like they did. Well, there isn't anything nice about how my relationships ended out.. so why bother telling? x)

It's even more surprising the fact that, i never talked about these stuffs to my own bro, neither did he ever initiated talks like that. For a family like that, i was pretty surprised my cousin bro started telling us the problems between him and this particular girl so naturally.. and i just knew he actually talks to his mum about these problems as well. Judging on the kind of perception he gives (to me at least), i felt like he is most likely the type who keeps most things to himself.. When in true fact, i am much worse. Much much worse ><! I tend to keep a lot of personal things to myself.. and then sometimes i happen to open up to the wrong people.. People who, i'd say, try to get rid of the topic rather than listening to me. Oh well.

Whee. Driven off-topic.
So anyway, like i said, i felt like i've became a lot more closer now than i have with my cousins in these years. Not that we don't meet up much (k lah actually we don't really), but i admit that ever since we started our sec school life, we've drifted pretty far apart until now.. 
I'm only too glad things changed for the better now.. 

An honest promise for this kind of sessions to come again from time to time :)

*~*~*

Just like sitting on the see-saw.
It's been ongoing, though not realising we have always been sitting on it until now.

And as we sat together, deep down knowing all of us had led different lives now, endured different obstacles, we know that on the other side of the see-saw, what we still have, is each other =)
