christmas turning into heart break

Bonjour! Buenos dias! irrational fantasists What's up, guys? I spent the better part of five hour shifts washing and cleaning today, along with utensils that were used through Christmas period rip and those that we will be using on New Year's Day. When I'm bored, I've found that I work so hard on my housework. I did, however, complete all of the housework.

Since I've been abroad for about three years (I'm in Toyin), my pals and I planned to come together on Monday which was a day after christmas. It was also the ideal moment to take a vacation from our academics since we are on vacation for Christmas. So, we prepared everything within advance. We initially discussed going on a little trip to the beach. In order to still have the opportunity to spend Christmas eve with our family, we decided to do it on December 26, a day after Christmas. All set, but a change has transpired.

On Christmas Day, as I was questioning my pals whether they wanted to go ahead with our plan, she advised me to check my WhatsApp and look up the status of my other colleagues. I believed it was a surprise because the planned event is only one day apart, but when I checked my buddy status, I almost fainted and instantly i lost my appetite and all i could do was to go to my room and start wondering why.

I learned that she was searching for a way to generate money after her home was invaded, her eldest brother was shot, and he was now being treated in the hospital because the bullet went through his kidney and required an immediate surgery.

To be completely honest, I am at a loss for words to console my colleague. I am aware that she has experienced a great deal, but she has yet to get over the tragedy of her younger brother december 2018. But I'm still adamant that I speak with her, so I contact her right away. While speaking, she sobbed "I don't want to go to the time where we are forced to give up his life, toyin. Like what happened to their younger brother, it has occurred to me once again ". She needed someone else to be there in conjunction to her, so I decided to keep quiet for the time being. I offered to accompany her to the hospital, but she declined.

I've always had a tendency to overanalyze things. I want to travel there, but I additionally do not wish to compromise Christmas for my relatives because of my choice. My friend and I have a really tight relationship, but they are not close to my family. Her brother was incredibly kind; I recall that in the past he gave me rides in his car because our homes were set up similarly. He truly seems like a decent guy, so I hope that he receives a second opportunity at life.

We thus made the decision not to postpone our reunion because we are currently inconsolable at the situation. We also determined that we would pay his prescription costs out of our budget. But I'm also worried about my friend's health. She is too immature to be suffering from this. I don't want to overcomplicate it, but if her brother were to pass away, she would be left solitary. She still requires a relatives even though she has us. The much more tragic aspect is that her birth date is just around the corner. She turns 24 on January 1st, but it seems that instead of celebrating, she was given a present of grief and anxiety.

hopefully everything comes back to normal, and we all become happy again because all i want this period is joy and happiness.

thanks for reading ❤️❤️❤️❤️
