justice will be served soon.

January 17th of 2009. 9:00AM. ParaƱaque Medical Center.

my dear friend's mom was dead on arrival, due to a knife that pierced her heart. she was stabbed in a crowded place early in the morning, and the whole family is in shock.

how could creatures that walk on two legs, with beating hearts and empty brains could do such an inhumane act? how could they steal someone else's life, as if money isn't enough? how could they still be just around the corner, and their souls not yet rotting in hell? it makes me shiver that they could be anyone. and they are out there, ready to kill anyone anywhere.

up until now it seems unimaginable to me. when i saw her lying in the casket, i closed my eyes and the night i last saw her flashed into my mind. it was tuesday night, slept over at their house as i frequently do ever since they came back from france, and she knocked at the door just checking on us. i remember smiling because i found it sweet of her to check on her daughter.

i know my friend is strong, and i'm sure she knows that her mom is in a better place now. no words can explain how worried i am for her, but i am positive that she'll soon see the light and heal in time. i still believe that there is justice in this country, and the truth will come out soon.
