From Manila to Nagoya

All I could think of was how much I regret not having enough time to say goodbye.

We slept late, around 2 am, and I was supposed to be at the airport by 4:30 am. I was tired and grumpy and I did not even want to kiss him goodnight.

I guess I was too upset that I was really leaving that I took it out on him. And I always regret not being able to control my emotions.

It was time. And I was too busy trying to hold back tears that I did not even hug him. Stupidstupidstupid! Part of me knew that if I did, it would be harder for me to go. But another part also knew that it was going to be a looong time before I can feel his arms around me again. So I did not. Stupidstupidstupid!

How do you say goodbye to someone you love? How do you let him feel how sad you are that you are leaving? How do you squeeze a thousand hugs and kisses in 5 minutes? I can't. I tried but I really can't.

I looked back but he was no longer there. I called him up and he said he was outside looking at my plane. He said he was going to stay until he sees my plane leave. And that he loves me very much.

So I left.

Touchdown at Nagoya. I went to the restroom at the Nagoya airport just to check it out. And this is what I saw:


I had absolutely no idea what it was and how it works. But I do now! Any guesses?
