I hugged my mom when Dad let me go, as she sniffed, trying to control her tears. We were standing outside the hall, where the extended family had gathered for lunch to commemorate our wedding.
"Mom, take your meds on time." I said and choked on a sob as she wiped my tears.
"Don't leave any sweet things around dad." I continue.
"I'm not a child, Ayra." Dad said standing with the help of my cousin brother and I left mom's arms and hugged him tight again,letting those tears flow.
It felt like the end of the world. I knew I would visit him, but it wouldn't be the same.
"Take care, Dad.. I'll be at the hospital before 11." He nods trying to go through my biddayi (daugher's departure) without tears and put on a brave face.
"Don't irritate him too much" Sabby said pointing to Ambar already in the car as I hugged her tightly trying to control these tears.
"Call me, if dad or mom need anything." I say and she nods as mom walks further, opening the car door for me. I sat inside looking at dad, who nods and shuts the car door.
Ambar was already inside and the car immediately started moving. I wiped a few tears as Ambar slid a tissue box and I took it, sobbing for the next 10 minutes.
This is it. Where my identity changes.. Where instead of being cared for, I'd have to wear the big girl panties and care for others. I'm no longer Dad's princess.His little girl.
I'm a women expected to look after herself, and make her own decisions.. Wisely..
Don't have a lot of experience with the last part. Wise is the last adjective anyone who knows me, will use for me.
Spontaneous, short tempered and Smart. That's it.
I sobbed most of the way and started looking out of the car window as we come to hault infront a huge mansion. How many people live here?
