*After few days*

*Morning*

Sophia: Good morning *yawns*

Her dad: Are you feeling better?

Sophia: *Nods*

Her dad: Good to know *smiles*

Sophia: Are you going to office now?

Her dad: Yes, I have to do so much work and finish it as soon as possible *sad face*

Sophia: Don't worry, I will take care of everything. Best of luck dad, I know you can do it *smiles*

Her dad: Your friends are going to visit you after school..

Sophia: What why!?

Her dad: Because they are worried about you honey. They told me you aren't replying to anyone which made them so worried, then I told them about your sickness. After that, they told me that they will come and visit you. I couldn't stop them, sorry.

(He kept his promise, he didn't tell her friends about her real sickness, anemia)

Sophia: It's fine dad. I don't want them to know that I have anemia, that's it.

Her dad: Can I ask you why?

*Silence for a moment*

Sophia: Because I will get more attention and I don't want that. If I didn't get this problem, would they care? Would they give me the same attention which I deserve? I don't think so.

Her dad: Sophia, they are your friends since you were a little kid. Friends like yours are hard to find, don't doubt your friendship. They are worried because they care. Sick or not, they still love you.

Sophia: Right dad, but sometimes I start having these stupid doubts which try to ruin everything for me *wiping the fresh tears* I feel like everything, especially things which are beautiful in my life, all are fake.. They will vanish in a blink of an eye.

Her dad: I understand you very well, I have been through same stage when I was about your age *pats her back*

Sophia: Am I crazy?

Her dad: No, it's part of youth.

Sophia: I hope so.

Her dad: Trust me, you will get through this and it will make you stronger. Also, about fake thing, you are right, many things are fake but some are not. Life is full of tests and challenges, you have to pass and face them. What's real? You will know when the time is right but for that you have to keep your patience level high.

Sophia: Understood.

Her dad: Good *smiles*

Sophia: But mom.. why she left? How can I expect someone to love me and care for me when my own mom left me.. I feel unloved.. It was so hard to grow without her.. Dad, tell me why..

Her dad: *Wiping her tears* I wish I could answer your question.. I wish.. *hugging her*

Sophia: *Hugs back*

Her dad: You still wear this necklace?

Sophia: Yes, this necklace is like mom's presence.. I can never face any challenge of my life without mom.. and you.. *holding it*

Her dad: I am sorry that you have to face so much *kissing her forehead*

Sophia: It's okay dad, your daughter is strong *wiping her tears and trying to smile*

Her dad: I know *smiles* Now, it's time for me to leave.. You will be okay?

Sophia: Yes dad.

Her dad: Don't get out of the house no matter what. If you need anything, here is Peter's number *passing it to her* call him instead. He won't mind because he is our neighbour. Don't you dare to think twice before calling, you can if you need anything, just do it okay?

Sophia: Okay..

Her dad: Good girl *pats her head*

Sophia: Dad, I am not a kid! *pouts*

Her dad: For me, you are *laughs* Okay, bye now. I am going to be late *sighs* I love you *smiles*

Sophia: I love you too *smiles back*

🌸🌸🌸

She did her morning routine and ate her breakfast. After washing the dishes, she decided to practice for the competition.

She went to her room, played music and start dancing with the flow of voice and beat. It looks like an angel dancing in the sunshine. Only word which can describe that scenario was beautiful.

Soon this beautiful moment changed when she fell on the floor. The pain came back because her muscles were still weak and due to practicing, they got stiff again.

She tried to get up but no use. She decided to lay there for few minutes. After resting a bit, she tried her best to stand up and she did. Only words which were playing in her mind was,

"Don't give up. Please don't give up Sophia. You can do it. You have to make your dad proud."

*After practicing for hours*

She took a shower and cleaned herself. She decided to take a little rest because her body was aching badly after too much practice.

She layed down on her bed and starts thinking about her life. As she was so tired, her eyes closed automatically and she falls asleep.

🌸🌸🌸

After taking a good and long rest, her eyes open slowly. She sat up and got shocked, when suddenly someone hugged her. She screamed.

Sophia: Ah!

Sophia: To be honest Jess..

Jessy: Huh?

Sophia: I REALLY MISSED YOU!

Jessy: To be honest Sop..

Sophia: Hmm?

Jessy: I MISSED YOU MORE!
