«Daddy! Daddy! Kyle made fun of me for not having a mama!» Milly said crying and hugging her mother
«Oh honey, don't cry. You should have just told them why. And if they didn't understand then you just ignore them. Because they're dummies.» «Dada why I don't have a mama? And don't tell me it's because I'm special and my mama is an angel. I want to know the truth! I'm 12 already!»
Jennie bit her lower lip and looked at her little girl, for then sighing «You're right. It's time for you to know. Come here sweetheart, sit down.» she said gently pulling her little girl on her lap and wrapping her arms around «But promise me that if I'll tell you the truth, you won't think it's your fault. Because it's not okay? It's not your fault.» Milly nodded «Okay, it's not my fault.» Jennie sighed «So here's what happened...»

«You know, me and your mama, we knew each other during high school and started dating shortly after getting into the same college. We were so happy, your mommy, she...» I smiled at the thought of her «She was so beautiful, cheerful, carefree, a happy virus... She was... the best person you could ever meet, the sweetest, most beautiful and brilliant woman to ever live. I was so lucky that I've got her for myself. We dated for 6 years, then, one day, well» I chuckled at the memory «One day we found out that mommy was pregnant, of you. Our beautiful daughter. But, something happened. The doctor told us that there was a huge chance of you dying. During the whole pregnancy we've been very very careful not to hurt you. Mommy Lisa loved you so so much, she was so happy. As soon as we knew we were expecting a pretty little girl, we were so happy especially Lisa. She immediately dragged me to buy everything for you just so you could have everything you might have needed. Your mommy was enthusiastic but with carrying you, her energy and health slowly became worst.» «Was I hurting mommy?» I bit my lower lip and lied a little «Not purposely and it was mostly Lisa's body who was too weak.» Milly nodded pouting as I kissed her temple as I went on «Although she was weak everything seemed to be fine, until that day.....»
*Flashback*
«JENNIE! HELP! OH GOD! HELP ME!» Lisa cried out loudly from the bedroom on the floor above to me in the kitchen. I quickly rushed up to her, almost flying up the stairs and bursted through our bedroom door gasping «Oh my God Lalisa! Baby!» I quickly kneeled beside her while looking for my phone in my pocket «What happened? Don't worry, you'll be okay. Everything will be okay.» «Jennie... The baby.... Our baby Milly...» As I dialed the emergency number I comforted her «Don't worry our little girl will be fine as well. Don–Yes, hello, hi, I need an ambulance right fucking now!!! My wife is pregnant, she's bleeding so much from down there. We need help immediately! She's slowly loosing consciousness! Yes our address is [insert address]. Please be quick!» I hung up and moved Lisa's head on my lap, caressing her face as she seemed to doze off, most likely due to her weak body and big blood loss «Don't worry baby. The ambulance is on her way. They'll help you. Just don't fall asleep. Don't fall asleep Lalisa. Stay with me. Stay awake Lisa! Stay awake!!!»
Not too long after I heard the sirens nearing our house, as I told Lisa «Keep your eyes open baby. I'm gonna get the doctors.» She weakly nodded, her tears falling falling down her cheek as I gently but quickly placed a pillow under her head and ran towards the door to get help «Here! We're here! Please help! Help! My Lalisa! Our baby! My wife! Quick!»
As soon as the ambulance stopped I left the door open and ran back to Lisa only to find her unconscious «Lisa! No baby! I told you to stay awake!»

Soon we were at the hospital and Lisa was rushed into an OR as the only thing they told me was that the baby had to come out now, although it was due in 2 more weeks.
*End of flashback*
«You know Milly, I waited. I waited for hours to have any kind of news, hopefully positive. But when someone came to update me, the whole world crushed on me.» I took a deep breath feeling my eyes getting teary at the memory «It was either you or mommy Lisa.» I informed sadly «In a very short moment of consciousness Lisa begged the doctors to save you, that she didn't care she would have died, what mattered was you. So the doctors granted her wish, although they still tried to save you both. When mama was told that mommy didn't make it... The whole world fell on me... I fell on my knees and cried, so much, so hard... I was feeling my heart break, shatter under the heaviness of your mommy passing away while giving birth to you. I've gotta be honest with you baby, for a moment, just for a small moment, I resented you and wish you would have been the one to die.» Milly teared up «Mama doesn't love me?» she asked tearfully «No, no baby, let me go on. It was just for a moment. Until I went into the OR and they gave you to me, as I held you in my arms... I felt like a my shattered heart would have slowly put itself together with you. You were so small and beautiful, you looked and still look just like your mommy. I went near your mommy and although she wasn't alive anymore, I gave her one last kiss and smiling through the tears told her that we had a beautiful, healthy little girl, that she had made it.» I told her smiling while crying and caressing her cheek «When the doctor asked me your name I went with what Lisa wished for but I chose your second name. In memory of your mommy. That's why you're called Milly Lalisa Manoban Kim. Because your mother gave her life for you. And I love you so much. And I'm so so sorry for the kids bullying you for something you, no, no one could control. When they'll make fun of you again, remember this story. Be strong and nice just like your mother was. I'll always be here to protect you, I'll always be here to comfort you, I'll be your strongbox. I won't let anything bad happen to you. I'll try my best. Because I love you so much. And your my baby. No our baby. Our beautiful, strong, nice, smart little girl.» Milly hugged me crying saying «I love you so much mama.» «I love you too baby.» I said
«I love you both Jennie and Milly. My beautiful girls.»
We both gasped as Milly asked «W-What was that?» I told her smiling through the tears «I don't know how it's possible. But that was our Lalisa. Your mommy. My wife.»
