Im writting this post to my dearest friend, even after your death i can still see u crawling around . There's many things that i regret not doin for u. I'll alway love u, and i'll alway remember what u remarkable terrapin u have been. I never thought i would love u so much.
I remember when i was applying the medicine on ur skin, u looked at me with faith, entrusting yourself to me. The truth in your eyes say u never leave. The sweet-fruity scent i smell the night, was you. The night when u passed away. I'll alway remember how u look like, how cute your face n smile was. I remember how u lay motionlessly on the floor, u didnt move at all, despite me shaking u to live. I'll alway remember how i hug when we were on the way to the cremation center, ur bofy was so soft. That made me feel terrible.
However, i still have to thank u for giving me the chance of being with u, for ur remaining few days. I even draw a tombstone to remember u. I brought u when I was pri.5 , 11 years old, on the date 25 july 2002. And u passed away on 25 april 2009. U r almost 7 years old my beloved. But its ok i'll buy a cake on every 25 of july to celebrate ur birthday, and i'll grief on every 25 of april. I'll alway be there for u, and i love u. U will be my one and only pet for my entire life.
Its actually good that u have passed away as well, for u wont have to suffer all the pain from ur injury, and u wont have to be a turtle again. Carrying that shell is tough for u my dear. Lastly, i realised all along u r my best friend, not anyone else. U nv forsake me only after death. I know u love me as well, u didnt wan me to abandon u at some ponds or reservoir, so u rather end ur life at home. I wasnt the one who wanted to abandon u, but my mom was the one who say u will find freedom in a natural environment. But i hope u understand , she was only trying to make u happy.

This is u, when u died. I regret not taking pictures of u when u r still alive, as i heard if u take picture of a turtle will cause it to die soon.

Da gui looking motionless. I am really very very very very very very very sad that u had left.


There u r, in the plastic bag, when we were in the car, on the way for cremation. May good fortune rule over u. May peace live in u. Rest well my beloved.

I got to left u alone on the table, this is the last time i'll ever see u. Im so sorry. They say we cant saty for long, i got to leave u. I WISH I CAN BE WITH U FOREVER MY DEAREST DA GUI.
