JuSt Be HaPpY

Laid on his soft tummy as I talked.
A sense of security, a feel of comfort.
"Daddy, I dunno what I want to do in future?!"
He gave a pat on my head and said,
"You can do anything. Just be happy!"

Flashes of memories reappeared in my thoughts.
CellCulture Hood at National Cancer Centre,
Labs at Ngee Ann Polytechnic,
I loved experiements.
But come to think about it,
Am I happy?
No.

Then I imagined... Four of us,
In our orange and turquoise world
Smiling as we discussed about things,
Worried about revenue and products.
Stressed but happy.
A feeling that I longed for.

I gave him my usual teddy bear hug,
Before I left his room for mine.
Feeling happy,
And seeing a future ahead.
