Last night, we met up with the buyers again. In the short time together, we signed several papers to confirm the sale and purchase of our flat. "Once the papers are signed, both sides can no longer change their minds." were the agent's words to us. Each time I placed my signature on the page, I felt a mixed sense of relief and heartache.
In January 2003, we received the keys to this place. I still remember the excitement and happiness we felt when we first unlocked the door to this place we can call our own. From an empty flat, we transformed it into a cosy home, with lots of love put into every part of this home. This is the place where we built our marriage and family... this is the place where we shared joy and pain.
How I'll miss this wonderful place that we have called our home for the last 4 years! I think Charis will also miss the little play corner that we have created for her. Soon this place will belong to someone else, but I'm thankful that the treasured memories are for us to keep =) We have another 3 months to enjoy this home!
