Days turned into weeks, weeks into months, and before I knew it, Christmas had arrived. Deadlines, late-night coding sessions, and the occasional much-needed coffee break caused the year to pass by in a flash.

Looking back at everything that occurred makes it feel unreal. It was a tough journey, with lots of ups and downs and sleepless nights. But seeing how much CopeBot has improved makes it all worthwhile.

Thirty percent finished. I realize that's a small number. It takes a marathon, not a sprint, to build a mobile application. However, I get a quiet sense of accomplishment when I watch the code slowly but surely come together.

Tiffany is one of many people in need of this. It's sad to think she cannot use this anymore, but I'm not losing hope because there are still a lot of people who need this app. CopeBot is more than just code—it's a lifeline and a refuge I'm creating for people in need.I never want to watch the same situation again, like what happened to my childhood bestie, Tiffany.

She's too young for this cruel world; she was genuine and a happy kid back then...

If only people were much kinder to her. But what happened already happened. I should stop dwelling on someone I already lost and start doing things for people who are still by my side and shift my focus to them.

I hope wherever Tiffany is right now, God will forgive her, and I hope her soul is taking a good rest.
