departure.
We went to the airport yesterday to send Kenneth off. He was going to study in Australia. There were smiles and jokes all around, trying to mask the somewhat sombre atmosphere. We all joked about giving him all our money so that he need not leave, but hidden behind every jest, is a truth nobody dares to speak of. We are all men, and we do not talk of our emotions openly. But when the time came for him to leave, most tried to fight back the tears. Some managed to, some failed. But perhaps, this is the thing that can make a grown man weep. Not blood. Not sweat. But a brother, whom has been in your life for so many years, suddenly being not in your life(physically) anymore. I know he's not gone for good, but 4 years is a long time. Johnson had better get married soon.
