Shocking! Past and Present...

Yesterday while I was busy dropping ECs and FB-ing, my eldest sis called me. "You know ..." *non-stop* Taken aback, shocking news after MJ, but this one was someone we really knew. Sis told me that my bro-in-law called her to inform that ** has committed suicide!! Eventho' I was not close to this guy, but I've known him since 1998!! It was believed that he did it in his car yesterday morning and in front of the church!!! He used to go to this church and was actually active in choir when he was a kid. I am still not sure about the whole story, but I suddenly remember what he told one of my friends, R...

When a friend, W, was getting married in last April, R was one of the bride's maids. This guy was visiting her workplace and he outspokenly told R that the man W was going to tie the knot with has a child from his past relationship or marriage (???)... When R looked surprised, he changed the topic or intentionally did that. We still didn't know his motive because we never informed W about this. Do you guys think it's wrong that we just kept the secret to ourselves? Or is there even a 'secret'??

We have a discussion amongst us, friends, W probably already knew about her hubby's background and she might thought that it's not appropriate and perhaps too personal to share with others... We just made our own speculation, but we're still afraid sooner or later it's going to break her heart and now, the 'one' person that had brought this matter up was already taking his own life!!! Or maybe there was an accident???

When we thought that everything is fine and normal, we never expected that there is something that is always bound to surprise us in a blink!
