June 4th Candlelight Vigil

I had made up my mind earlier to attend the annual June 4th candlelight vigil at Victoria Park with my friends.  But a friend of ours was in town and could only have dinner tonight, so we persuaded him and another friend to join the vigil before dinner.

It suddenly rained heavily soon after we entered the park, the 2 friends left for an early dinner, and the rest of the gang insisted on staying.  I was on the fence, I wanted to experience the vigil, but at the same time, I wanted to catch up with a friend I haven’t seen for more than a year.  I stayed a little bit longer before deciding to join my 2 friends for dinner.  But the problem was that I couldn’t quite figure out where my friends sat down, and mobile communication was all jammed.  I ended up wandering around the park until the vigil was over.

Thankfully, all of us did end up meeting for a late dinner together.  I find the whole incident a little funny, I was smiling from within, it’s been awhile since I experienced this little joy.
