The Girl

The prodigal daughter

She was the good girl. She wanted her mom to be happy, so she did everything. She was forced to run as the school council's president way back high school. Fortunately, she won. Her mother wanted her to become an accountant, so she took accountancy. She threw away her dream to creative writing badly. 

All her life, she wanted to write. She wanted to make stories that explains lifem but her mother wanted her to be an accountant like her. And she wanted to make her mom happy, so she did. She took up accountany and let her dreams slip away. 

She ended up losing the boy she loves because she loved her mother more. She loved her so much that she would be glad to end up her life just for her. She love her that much that no one else could enter her life if her mom won't agree.

All she did was out of love, yet her mother didn't recognize it. Her mother built walls that even her daughter couldn't break them. Her mother told her she was prodigal whenever she was having second thoughts. She even slapped her when she tried quitting the contest her mother insisted her to join.

She's incomplete, sad at the same time happy. All her life, she wanted to show her mom that she was worth it, that her mother shouldn't be regretting not to abort her. But yes, that was the only way she thought. She loved her mother so much that she would risk everything. 

"Good bye mom," she said as she drank the pills.
