Daddy , i love you
It started out for lecture that morning without any worries iin my head . It was an unusual feeling for me as i am a worrywart . In spite of this , I felt a heavy tug in my heart that something bad was going to happen .
Mentally , i ticked off every task that i was supposed to do . My assigment was done , the fund-raising project was going smoothly and i didi switch off the stove after using it that morning . Reassuring myself , i went to lecture . By mid morning , i felt everything was alright until the Ain came and talked to my lecture . I knew something was wrong because i saw her eyes drop and they started to water . Whatever it is , i didn't want to pry , so i continued with my assigment . Suddenly , my name was called and i was asked to see the Ain outside the lecture hall . I practically dragged myself up to him , hoping that everything would be fine .
"Its your dad , Nana . He's been in an accident and now he is in critical condition in the hospital ," said the Ain . I waas so stunned by the news that i didn't know how i got into the Ain's car . He drove me to the hospital . Feeling numb all over , my mind started to wander back the fight we had .
That was the worst fight my dad and i ever had . We were fighting over my social life . Dad said that i was too busy to pay attention to my studies . At that point , i was in the midst of my fund-raising project . As the organising chaircerson . I was busy so i told him that he was drowing things out of proportion . Before i knew it , we were yelling at each other . That was three days ago .
Tears welled up and i prayed that God would save him . Sensing my mood , the Ain was kind enough to leave me with my thoughts . When we reached the hospital , i was ushered to the ICU . I saw my dad my dad from behind the glass window with tubes all over him . What tore my heart was that , the glow my dad once had had gone . He was pale and frail . My mom and brother were sitting at a nearby couch . I saw that both of them had been crying and by then i couldn't stop my tears from falling .
My mum came up to me and told me to go inside , as my da wanted to see me . She gave me a hug and told me to be strong when i saw him . With a heavy heart , i went in . He opened his eyes and smiled at me . I smiled back and sat down beside his bed .
"Whatever happens to me , dear , remember that i will always love you and please take care of yourself and your brother ." He said in barely a whisper .
Before i could reply , the line on the ECG went into straight line . My dad was dead . I screamed and started to shake my father's body . My body was shaking too as i was crying my heart out .
"Dear , wake up . Its only a dream."
I opened my eyes and i saw an angel , my own dad . Well and alived i hugged him at that moment , thanking God that it was only a dream . I told him i was sorry about the fight and promised him that i would always listen to him . My dad was completely stunned .
"I love you , dad ."
