Dad

Angela never think about her dad again, maybe he already forget about him, she studied so hard to get in her dream university, Harvard University. She works so she can pay college herself.

Then after her hard worked, she got into Harvard she was so happy, her dream came true. At first she felt tired, she always get to her dorm late, because she got so many assignment and essay even research, but Angela don't give up. One thing in her mind, she must success, and make her mom proud, prove that she payed all of her mom hard worked. She must to be someone who can make change to her country to be better. She must to be someone who could be counted on, always have a positive mindset and bring joy to people around her.

Graduation day arrived, Angela felt so excited, finally after all of things that she been through, she graduated. She got her first diploma, with the best grade. She was so happy, all of her hard worked payed, and the important things she made her mom happy and proud. She never felt happy than that graduation moment.

2 years later

Angela woke up in the morning and found a letter in her door, the envelope only says "read this when you're ready". Angela must get hurry because today is her first day at work. She works as a forensic scientist in CSI California, So she drove her car and left the letter in her room. After she go back from works she opened the letter, at first when she reads that's from her dad, she was angry and don't want to read it. She thought that after 10 years why now ? why now he send a letter to me? where he has been all over the year? after everything i have been through why now ?

Angela thought with a heart break, feels like her father didn't care at all to her.

It's in the middle of the night, Angela can't sleep. She can't stop thinking about the letters, but she don't want open it because she afraid that it will broke her heart. So she keep the letter and she pretend nothing happened. She back to her daily activities, works and get home

One Day, Angela get home early, because she felt tired so she went to sleep. Then she dreamed about her dad, in her dream her dad crying while apologize over and over again. Angela woke up and still can't stop thinking about her dream last night. She saw the letter still in the envelope, she haven't opened that. Because she felt curious so she opened, and when she read it, she's crying so badly..

The next day she wants to meet her dad, she went to his address she found in the letters. When she knock the door, her stepmother opened and turns he passed away 2 years ago.

Angela sad, that she don't have time to met, apologize and hug even take her dad to the funerals for the last time.

She went to her dad's grave and she said "don't worry father, i already forgive you, look now i finally live my dream, i graduated from Harvard and now i works with CSI, rest in peace dad. and i will i always love you" says Angela while crying so badly..

Angela still can't believe that she don't have a more time with her dad, to buy him some present, celebrated Christmas and new year, go travelling around the world, taking a picture and made some memories. But she already lose that moment..

Angela don't want sank into sadness all over again so she tried to do her activities, she tried back to be normal, she must move on and keep moving forward. Because she don't want to lose a moment with her mom, she do everything she wanna do, buy her mom present, take her travelling, adventure, celebrated Christmas and new year, mothers day, taking a picture and and made memories as much as she can, because she's the only one she have and she don't want to lose her.

From this story the lessons is "better apologize early before it's too late, nobody knows someone ages, don't make you're life full of regrets" and "make some memories as much as you can, because today we're with them but we don't know until when? and who turns up next"
