this should go in the family history book

I was walking up the stairs of CMC. In front of me were two orgmates. Prof. Chua and Sir Teodoro were talking as they were in the middle of the staircase. The three of us never bothered to greet the professors such that they seemed busy talking and that we were not at all that chummy as a person.

I was walking the second set of stairs when Sir's hand signaled me to a stop.

"Oh, here's my relative, Martha."

Quite surprised and needing more time to absorb the situation, I simply smiled. As they seem to move to another topic of conversation, I left.

My hands were cold. This is the first time I actually heard him refer to me as a relative. The last time we talked, he still couldn't remember who my dad was.

hehe. I still can't get over what has happened.
