I remember it was only last month you said you were gonna leave.. and today, the date has finally arrived. Your initial date of departure was on the 5th of October (today) but you brought it forward to 3rd October. We knew that one day you had to leave the country, after all your family is there, waiting for you.
I desperately feel like being selfish.. Why do you have to go? Why cant you just stay here? Whats so great over there? ARGH!! but i cant be selfish. You did not teach me that. So here I am saying. Dad go, Stay there. No. Please don’t. Just come back here. i am here. I will cook, clean, do the laundry and the dishes, I will even start to pray again.. But just come back.. You don’t have to be there for long..
I don’t see any picture of you carrying me as a baby, but i knew why. You were the only who knew how to use the camera and take good pictures. You were always behind the scenes. Then in my childhood, I only remembering you working.. work.work.work. But you were doing what a man suppose to do, make sure that theres food on the table for all of us to eat. A true man. A disciplinarian. An intelligent man. Very wise. Thats my dad.
My memory of dad came right after the divorce. He took care of me. Of all my needs. He was great. We bonded, and now i just cant imagine him my life without him. I miss his sarcasm, his joke, his anger, the look he gives when he gets irritated,,, Dad i miss you.
I know you said you will return for my wedding if the requirements are met, but i hope you wont wait for that long.. its approximately 10 yrs! please come back soon, your grandson waits for you.
From your daughter.
Grandpa died when you were only 3, and have been doing the household chores and never had break since. Maybe over there you will finally get to rest and relax after working so hard dad.
