" my dad is not dead! He told me that he will soon get better and we will go back home to celebrate my birthday party".i corrected the doctor.
" Miss Samatha, am for your loss. Fate made you experience this at your tender age.
But what can we do? No one has the power to dictate what will happen in the future. Don't worry everything will be fine.you have to be strong and make you father proud even though he is not here".
"Is m..m..my dad d..d..dead? I asked the doctor who was busy talking about fate.
"Yes he is dead, he had a sudden heart attack that led to his demise". He said sorrowfully.
"Dad is it true? I asked my dad while going up to his bed and started patting him.
"Dad the doctor said you are dead but I don't believe him because you made a pinky promise that you will get soon and celebrate my birthday with me right?
"Dad? Please can you wake up and prove them wrong?
"Please wake and see the ugly nurse that pushed me out of your room, she is shedding crocodile tears". I pleaded with my dad but he just lay there without moving.
" dad please wake up mom will be mad if you wake up late, you know she doesn't want you to wake up late. I reminded him in a broken voice.
" dad can you hear me?
" h..h..he doesn't want to wake up anymore". I said to the doctor.
" does he hate me now? I asked him.
" no Sam he doesn't hate you".
" why is he not waking up? He hates me now". I cried out.
"you made him hate me right?
"No S.." the doctor tried to pacify me.
"That's why he doesn't want to wake up when I asked him to wake up".
" dad please don't be dead. I promise to be a good girl".
"I will take care of mum and make you proud. "Please can you wake you for your princess?
"Have you forgotten that my birthday party is tomorrow?
I started crying when he wouldn't wake up.
"Dad am sorry please wake up, I beg of you in the name of God please wake up".i said with tears flowing on my cheeks like a river.
"He is happy where he is now and wish the same for you. Stop crying your dad won't be happy if he sees you crying. The doctor tried consoling me.
