Papa,
When I sat down for breakfast, you told me how sorry you were. You forgot that it was Card Day.
You praised me for ranking third and I was really happy. I didn’t waste my efforts after all. Then you asked “What reward do you want Lizzie?”. I didn’t answer. I wanted to say a hug from you but I couldn’t. Then you said “I’ll give you your very own phone then”. I thanked you for the gift. I liked it Papa. It’s very useful.
My classmates envied me because I have the latest model but deep inside, Papa, I envy them. They always bond with their fathers. We never do. I’m too shy to ask you to have a day-off. I was shocked when you said “Let’s eat out”. I didn’t expect that Papa.
We ate at a pizza parlour and ordered a big pizza. I thought we would never finish eating! It was great spending time with you Papa…but we never really talked. Like Mama and I used to do. I was sipping my chocolate shake when you told me to take piano lessons. You said that girls should know how to play the piano. I said yes. I want to make you proud Papa. I really do…even if I’m not that interested in musical instruments. For you, Papa, I would.
