"Farrah... please promise me you'll take care of your sister," My father croaks weakly. "N-no, father please." I sob, squeezing his hand tightly. The doctors stared at me sympathetically. They had just called me in here, informing me my father wouldn't make it much longer. The cancer was winning.
"Promise me." I nod, squeezing my eyes shut. "I promise." I open my eyes again but my vision is blurred my tears. His tired gray eyes gaze at me. He was crying too. I wipe one of his tears away and press a light kiss to his forehead. "Don't worry Farrah, I'll always be with you."
That simple sentence made me cry even harder, if that was possible. I heard my sister's screams from outside. She was only 3... My mother died giving birth to her. I studied my dad's face. "I love you to the moon, dad." I whimper, "I love you to the moon and back," Came his hoarse response.
He gave my hand a final squeeze. "I love you..." His eyes slowly closed and the heart monitor beeped loudly in my ear. "No! No, he's not dead! He's not gone!" I sob, fighting the doctors trying to pull me away. "No!"
I stare at my dad's lifeless body one more time, collapsing on the floor outside the door. I lean against the wall and curl into a ball, silently sobbing. "Farry? What's wrong?" Avery's innocent voice rang through my ears. "Nothing, baby." I wipe away my stray tears.
"Where's daddy?" She asks, confusion filling her big blue eyes. More tears spill out of my eyes. She wipes them away with her little thumbs. "He's in heaven, baby. He's with mummy." I force a smile at her. "So he'll be happy again?" Her little face brightens up.
"Yeah, he'll be happy again."
Little did she know, I wouldn't.
