A FOND FAREWELL – LESLIE WILL NEVER GROW OLD



I was washing dishes in the kitchen while I found Leslie’s smiling face on TV. I have been his fan since I was a kid. It was a piece of incredible news that made me want to call somebody. “Is there anyone I should call? “I kept thinking as if one of my relatives/friends has passed away. My autistic younger brother, Peter, a fan too will never comprehend this and it will be cruel to do so.

He went to Mandarin Hong Kong on purpose! He was suffering relationship/emotional problem? Love is so scary that it makes everything possible/impossible or shall I replace the word “love” with “depression”? Scary is human beings’ attitude towards anything which grants us licences to save/kill!

“When one door is closed, another is opened.” Then the entertainment industry/CD shops/record companies will earn “quick money” in addition to those supplying/selling N95/8210/3M face masks, boosting the dying economy in Hong Kong. While some people rush to pharmacy, others will run to CD shops. Leslie has closed his own door.

“Like beautiful women, the world isn’t allowed to watch heroes growing old” a famous Chinese saying or a curse, in fact. Leslie will never grow old. He will always be “Handsome Go Go”.

Being a perfectionist, that is what Leslie wants?
