When he walked into the glass door that separated the travellers from the ones who couldn't and had to stay, I could only stay till the very end, just to wave along with the rest of the many people.

Everybody would remember him this way:
His signature look that is almost always painful, or in suffering.
And of course, his long lashes.

And his singing voice, that is halfway between Mariah Carey and Stefanie Sun, depending, of course, on the language.
I never started to get really close to him until the end of our army career, probably when we were in Taipei.
But I am already starting to miss this boy who is as crazy as me.
A photo in Taipei:
A photo that would have to last for, at least, a year:
