My eyes slowly fluttered open but I quickly closed them again. Partly because of the sunlight shining through the window, but also because my eyes stung. They stung like mad.

Today's the day that dad comes home, I should be happy, but I just can't seem to bring a smile to my face. It feels like my mouth is stuck in a frown, permanently.

I finally sit up and squinted my eyes adjusting to the brightness of the sun seeping through the curtains.

I don't usually take showers in the morning, but I have to. I feel disgusted at myself, I've been too caught up in my feelings I haven't even showered for the past few days.

I slowly but surely walked into the bathroom with my fresh set of clothes in my hands.

I turn on the cold shower before stepping in allowing the freezing cold water to hit my skin and my hair.

More tears started running down my face again at the thought of mum. The tears that fell were mixed with the shower water, you wouldn't be able to tell I was crying.

While she was on that business trip, I didn't even get to talk to her over the phone. I wish I could, I wish did.

The tears just won't stop. After I finished showering and was wiping myself off with a towel, the tears kept going.

Not only my heart hurts now, but I'm also hurting physically now.

I walked out of the shower and back into my room. My phone buzzed. I grabbed it looking at the notification. Dad had texted me.

Dad

Dad: The plane just landed, I'm coming home now.

I don't even know how I should feel anymore. Sad? Angry? Happy?

About half an hour later, the door creaked opened. Dad must be back now. 

I have curled into a ball once again on the sofa, in the living room. 

He sat down next to me and pulled me into a hug, comforting me. "Please stop crying, stay strong for me," he whispered into my ear. But, I can't, it feels like my heart is broken into many, many, many little tiny pieces. "Would mum like to see you cry like this?" I shook my head. 

She wouldn't.

I played around with my food and stabbed the piece of steak for the millionth time. "Son, eat up before it gets cold." I don't have the appetite to eat and I feel extremely sleepy. "I'm gonna go to bed early," I said and left the table.

I brushed my teeth before going to bed.

Although I was sleepy, I couldn't fall asleep. The sound of rain on the window seemed louder than it usually is and the thought of mum still makes me cry.

Not to mention the fact that I still have Lilliana and the move to Korea to worry about.

I don't know how to move on.

A/N

For some reason, this reminds me of Princess Diana, Prince William and Prince Harry?

Anyway, sorry for the short chapter but next chapter, y'all are gonna hate me.

I'm planning my next ff and if you haven't voted for a title yet go back to the last part and do so. Thank you very much.
