*Next morning*

Sophia woke up and followed her morning routine. She was brushing her hair when she heard a knock on her door. She knew who it was, so she opened the door. She saw her dad and asked,

Sophia: Yes dad?

Her dad: Breakfast is ready..

Sophia: I am coming *smiles*

Her dad: Okay *smiles back*

*After breakfast*

Sophia: Dad. I will listen to you.

Her dad: Really!?

Sophia: *Nods*

Her dad: Thank you!

Sophia: But I will get admit after my dance competition.

Her dad: Honey.. you are sick, how will you dance? Also, It's possible that you can faint during the practice *worried*

Sophia: I know I am sick but I can't leave my teacher and friends like that.. They are expecting so much from me and this competition means so much to all of us.

Her dad: Please think carefully.

Sophia: Dad, I have already decided.

Her dad: I don't know what to say..

Sophia: *Hugging him* I am sorry.

Her dad: *Hugging back* Please take care of yourself and don't sacrifice yourself again like you usually do for others..

Sophia: I won't, I am doing this for us too *smiles*

Her dad: How? *confused*

Sophia: If we won, you will have a reason to be proud on.

Like,

"My daughter is such a good dancer."

"She won a competition against the best schools of the world."

"She proved people wrong."

And many more *wide smile*

Her dad: You have already made me so proud, I don't need more..

Sophia: I know dad but I want to make you proud again *widest smile*

Her dad: *Kissing her forehead* I love you so much..

Sophia: Also dad, please don't tell anyone about this problem, I mean anemia. Not even principal.

Her dad: No angel, I have to. I don't want them to give you too much stress or be rough with you.

Sophia: I understand *pouts* but then at least don't tell my friends about this.. Keep it as a secret between you and me. I don't want them to know. Please?

Her dad: Fine.

Sophia: Thanks dad!

Her dad: Anyway, I have to tell you something important *excited*

Sophia: What? *excited too*

Her dad: Guess *creepy smiles*

Sophia: Dad! *pouts*

Her dad: Okay *laughs* let me give you a hint. Someone is coming back from Paris *teeth smile*

Sophia: Who? *thinking hard*

Her dad: Think *laughs*

*After few minutes*

Sophia: Max?
