she fall- PUBLISHED

Epilogue

"Dad, look!" Ani ng aking anak.

"What's that?" I asked.

"It's a book." Ani ng aking anak. I looked at Elizabeth's book.

"Saan mo yan nakita, anak?" Tanong ko sakanya.

"Eto yung story na binabasa sakin ni Mommy. Sabi nya it's her secret diary." Ani ng aking prinsesa.

"Where's Mommy?" Tanong ko sakanya. Kanina ko pa nga hindi nakikita si Anastasia.

"At tito Oct's house. Tito Oct needs some help ata e." Ani ng aking anak. Elizabeth Solien my five year old little girl. Kamukhang kamukha sya ng mommy nya.

"Hmn, okay. Can daddy look at mommy's secret diary?" I asked. I'm curious about it.

"I'll read it nalang." My little princess pouted.

"Okay, read that for daddy. Come here." I said. Lumapit naman sakin ang anak ko at umupo sa aking hita.

"What's the title?" I asked.

"She fall." My daughter answered. "So listen very carefully ha." Ani ng aking anak. Napangiti naman ako.

"Daddy will listen very carefully, anak." Ani ko.

"Here's the first entry." Ani ng aking anak.

Hi! I'm Anastasia and I fell inlove with someone whom I can trust my whole heart. I came from a not so great family. The only thing that I love is my dad and i'm scared that I won't be able to find someone who's like my dad. I'm scared to be cheated on because all my life I saw how my dad cry when he knew that my mom is cheating on him. And I'm scared, really scared that maybe someone whom i'll met is like my mom.

"Ayan dad, ayan yung first entry ni mommy." Ani ng anak ko.

"What's the second entry?" I asked.

"Hmn, I really don't like the second entry. Let me find the lessons. I love it." Ani ng aking anak.

"Lesson, huh?" I raised my one eyebrow.

"Yes, here! The lesson about love." Ani ng aking anak.

"About love?" I asked.

"Yes. About love." She said.

True love is hard to find. We cannot force someone to love us. We cannot teach someone to love us nor to understand us. There are two things to know if we love someone. The first one is if we are really sure about them and we see them in our future, it's the most amazing part. If we care about them and we are sure that they'll be the one whom we can spend our life with then you'll know that it's love. It's the happy side of love. While the second one is if we feel pain, then you'll know that you love someone. Pain is part of love, it's always part of it, but you'll know that you're loving, if you feel that the person you love will be your downfall but still loves them. And it's the sad and most darkest part of love. Love will conquer everything, but make sure that the person you love is worth everything. Always keep in my mind that your heart and your mind should collide. Loving is the best part of our life and also the painful part. So make sure that the person you love is worth the pain.

"Ayan dad. Ang galing diba." Ani ng aking anak. Napangiti naman ako.

"Your mom is amazing." I said.

"Yes, she is." Ani ng aking anak. Ginulo ko ang kanyang buhok.

"Dad, stop. Ayusin mo yan kung hindi" bitin na sabi ng aking anak.
