Fourth Day, I didn't expect that the Sadako Girl will visit my mom's room. As always she's smiling. My mom smiled back. They're both cancer survivors, seeing them smiling to each other and holding each other hands makes my heart flutter. They are both teary eyed and the Sadako Girl guide my mom to stand. So I help them to walk going to the hospital's garden where there are swings for children. "But I'm to weak to swing." Mom weakly smiled. "Mam, there are things that we can't do anymore so take this opportunity while your still strong okay?" The girl smiled and she guides my mom to sit on the swing. I was staring at them at that scenario but I saw my mom smiling at me so I hold her hand so that she would not fall on the swing because she's so weak already. "I'll push her on the back and you hold her hand okay?" the girl said and I did what she said.
"OKAY, 1 2 3!" I hold my mom's hand tightly so that she will be safe and the sadako girl push her back as she swings. I can hear my mom laugh again, that laugh was a melody on my ears. It's been a while since my mom laughed. Her eyes are teary eyed yet happy, she was smiling widely while we're swinging with her. After a few minutes we decided to go back on the room to let mom rest, I was so happy seeing my mom like that. That smile and laughs are priceless for me. My mom is my life, so I don't know what I would do without her. After I let my mom lay down, I went out to talk to the Sadako girl. "Thankyou." I sincerely said to her while she's in her wheelchair weakly smiling. "No problem, your mom's happiness is so priceless." She said. "Yeah I know, little things make her happy." "Little things that you make with her make her happy." She smiled. "I wish I could make her happy always." I sighed. But I guess I can't. "Sadly, she can't live longer. She'll die very soon." I added, I can feel the pain on my chest and my tears falling down. "You can still make her happy even if she's gone. Just continue your life and don't give up, make her proud, continue to live without her, make her as your inspiration. She will be the happiest mother if you continue your dreams and live happy."
