Papa
would lace up his Adidas sneakers. In track shorts and Adidas t-shirt he would
run lapses in the nearby basketball court. He did athletics back in the day.
Coaching and taking on the role of referee in the Palarong Pambansa. Several
times we saw him on TV. I swelled with pride for his 3 minutes of fame. His
choice of sportswear was anchored on his beliefs of comfort, grit and
simplicity. I plan to show him Namjoon’s video or a photo of the attire. Just
so I would still know that he is the person I grew up loving. Simple.
Persevering. Down to earth.
My dear,
dear Dementia. You have a way of robbing from us precious core memories. But we
persist.
Kim
Namjoon, I owe you one, yet again.
