shooting stars

" PApaaaaaa i really don't want to eat these..." you grumbled as you chewed unwillingly on the piece of blunt vegetable.
*chew chew chew*
"DAAaaA-
"fine fineeee give them to me"

your father huffed as he picked up the metal chopsticks and took all the vegetables off your bowl. you looked at your empty bowl with content. as usual, you always left the veggies for the last to give it to your father.

"papa?"
"yes princess"
"when will mommy wake up?"
"i....i-i don't know princess she didn't tell me"
"oh...i hope she wakes up soon!!"
"i...."

"i hope so too..."
your father whispered, looking down to hide the fact that he was struggling to hold back his tears infront of his innocent daughter y/n that still has so much to learn about the world.

"papa?"
"yes princess?"
"are you okay? you looked like you just cried"

your father snapped out of his thoughts when he heard the word "cried" and stupidly blurred out a random answer.

"nono princess i-i'm just sweating through my nose?"
stupid.
your father thought.

you just giggled and ran to your room to get changed.
you struggled to put on your favourite banana milk printed pjs and sprinted, more like stumbling out of the room,excited for the surprise, only seeing your beloved father sitting in a corner, silently weeping.
"PAPA!!"
you dashed towards your father and cling onto him, looking at him with your watery eyes. you really couldn't stand when anyone you care for cries. it just tugs on your heartstrings so much that you will cry with them

" papa please don't cry...you don't wanna see me cry right??"
you sniffled as you buried your head into his chest.
you didn't know what he was always crying about but it always happens. every year. it's already been three years and you still haven't figured out yet.

little did you know, it was a death anniversary.

yet, your father still remained strong as a single parent, raising you up and feeding you, but because he is a ceo of a good company, there was no problem financially.
Although you never knew what happened, you still respected your father greatly and loved him the most, over any of her best friends even jimin, which she always loved to call him
"chimmy"

your father stood up, wiping away his tears and looked at you. his used both his thumbs to wipe away your tears and smiles gently.

"i'm sorry princess, but are you ready for your surprise?"
you looked up at him before smiling and hoping up and down, immediately drawn from the fact that you just cried.
your father smiled as he carefully took your hands in his, swinging it ever so lightly, back and forth as you obediently followed, eager to see what's up ahead. he took you the lift and pressed the "balc" button, indicating balcony.
you looked up at your papa as he was busy inspecting the lift railing. trying to get is attention, you shook his finger that you were gripping on to.

"paPA"
"....."
"pApA"
"......"

by this time you were already shaking his whole arm

"PAPAAAAAA!!!"

your father got frightened, and swung his head towards your direction, eyes about to pop out from its sockets.

"yeEES PRINCESS???"
you giggled
"What's balslc(trying to pronounce balc)"
"balcony."
"why?"
"find out laterrrr"

he was getting a little annoyed at your constant stream of questions. but you noticed that he kept checking the time on his (psst rolex) watch.
Finally, the lift dinged and your father dragged you out. Observing your surroundings, a pink fluffy blanket was layed nicely infront of a glass panel that allowed you to see the view of the bright city; Seoul
you quickened your steps in sheer excitement, heading straight towards the pink blanket. you happily plopped your butt on it and gazed at the beautiful stars in the night sky.
it has been awhile since you got to see what you always called " black thingy with sparkles" you looked at your father, who was now beside you.
"papa? is this the surprise??"
"nono not yet princess be patient"

he checked his watch the last time before his eyes lit up with delight.

"princess?"
"yes?"
"look."

your father pointed to the skies.
you squeal with happiness at the sight of the shooting stars, gliding through the skies with grace.
you quickly clasped your hands together and motioned your father to do the same.
you closed your eyes and wished hard.
when you opened your eyes, you looked at your father, smiling your widest smile.

"princess?"

"what papa?"

"what did you wish for?"

"for my prince charming to come one day"
