Is it all in the books?
Is "fate" what brings us together and tear us apart?
If it's meant to be, it'll happen no matter what, aye?
Death, love at first sight, falling in and out of love, life. . .
Here's an article I read today!
YESH! KIMMY READ THE NEWSPAPERS! :D

Couple of 66 years die three hours apart
GEORGE TOWN: It was love at first sight when they met and their marriage lasted 66 years.
The love between Ho Khye Soo, 90, and his wife Ong Phin Nyar, 82, seemed so great that even death could not separate them when they passed away about three hours apart.
The love between Ho Khye Soo, 90, and his wife Ong Phin Nyar, 82, seemed so great that even death could not separate them when they passed away about three hours apart.
Ho died at 5.45pm on Sunday at their home in Bandar Baru Air Itam while praying for his ailing wife, who died at 9.10pm. Their eldest son Prof Dr King Kok, 65, said his father was relatively healthy and had no illness.
“He visited my mum, who was in a coma due to kidney failure, at a hospital a day before they died. We tried to prevent him from visiting her as we did not want him to feel bad,” he said at his parents’ home yesterday.
“However, he took matters into his own hands and hired a taxi to go to the hospital. He was quite upset when he saw my mum.”
He said the family had wanted to bring their mother home but Ho died before they could inform him of their decision.
“But he went ahead of mum and she followed him, like she always had in life.”
Dr King Kok said his parents had been married for 66 years and had four sons and a daughter.
“They met at my mother’s hometown in Padang Serai during the Japanese Occupation.
“My dad was a surveyor and happened to be in the town. He was 24 while my mum was 16. She was strikingly beautiful with fair skin and my dad fell for her at first sight,” he said.
He added that his parents loved to eat durians together. “My dad preferred his durian slightly bitter while mum liked hers sweet.”
His brother Johny, 60, said: “My mother was an old-fashioned woman with strong family values. She took good care of us.”
Ho’s first wife, with whom he had three children, died 10 years ago.
The cortege will leave the residence at 14-A, Jalan Angsana at Bandar Baru Air Itam for the Batu Gantong Crematorium on Thursday at 11am.

So, what do u think about that?
Pure coincidence?
Sucide?
Just fate. . ?
I think that whatever it is, it's just sweet. .
They weren't born on the same day, month, and year but they died on the same day, month, and year. .
I'm pretty sure it has been a bittersweet 66 years for them. . Ups and downs but they managed to pull through it together. .
I salute u both. .
"They" said that it's always better to "go" first because u won't have to be the one left around suffering and reminiscing. .
U won't have to be the one thinking about him/her. .
U won't have to be the one sleeping every night hoping u would see and feel him/her in ur dreams. .
U won't have thoughts of seeing them, feeling their touch, smelling their scent or hearing them everyday just like how it was for that many years all the time. .
But, it's better to be the one that "go" later. .
Because u don't want to see ur loved one suffer, u rather suffer the post of it. .
He once told me that he would rather I go first. .
I stoned for a moment and thought to myself. . "why?"
Well, enlightened, I finally got what he meant. .
Yes, u are right. . I would decide to "go" after as well after understanding the meaning behind it. . .
Thanks. . :)
Obviously the best would be to go together. . Life and death. .
Not even death can tear IT apart. .
Kimmy hopes u both are happily together somewhere up there, wherever u both may be. . ~
much love as always. .
