R.I.P. my dear hamster aka Sei Jiak

It was a bad start for today. I woke up early because we - me, shyuan and baby ong were going for a swim in the pool. Once I've put on my swimsuit, I went into the living room, planning to drink my cup of milk. At that moment, I felt the urge to feed the hamsters (mine = sei jiak, shyuan's = dua jiak). But on second thought, I told myself that I would feed them before going out for swim. So I sat down, stirring my milk while waiting for baby ong to reach.

Once baby ong arrived with shyuan (coz Baby Ong is not the resident of our apartment), she took a look at the hamsters. Suddenly shyuan shouted, "Eh, why there's blood?" I was puzzled as well as worried. When I reached the cage, I was shocked to see blood at the tail n backside.... negative thoughts flooded my mind. Maybe I was too shocked till I didnt realize the injured hamster was actually my Sei Jiak. When shyuan said,"How come Sei Jiak become like this?" only then I realised... My SEI JIAK!!!!!! =( Instantly, tears dropped down. It was only with me for about 5 months... and now, it's gone!!!! I dunno what happened but Li Pei said she heard noises from the hamsters last night. Should have fought furiously......

There were happy moments with it. Last time it used to be smaller size than Dua Jiak and that was how these two hamsters got their names. But now it has become stronger and bigger... and it's very active. Every now and then you can hear it exercising with the roller. Last nite when I came home from dinner, I still sang Jay Chou's song to it...I knew it love the song because it stayed near the fence to listen to me.....How saddening now it's gone... I've buried it at 5th floor's garden without the guard noticing. Hope that it will rest in peace. Those who saw and played with Sei Jiak before, hope that you all will pray for it. RIP sei jiak!
