"My princess, do you like my gift?" A voice asked behind her.
A new car.
It was her very first car.
"Yes, it is beautiful," Dani answered with a brimming smile on her young face.
She rushed outside the door and touched the metallic paint cover of the hood, admiring the latest model of the car she had been dreaming of since she received her license to drive.
"What do you think?" He asked her, moving behind her as she examined every detail of the car.
"I love it." She uttered, hugging him tightly, feeling so lucky to have him in her life.
"What about my other surprise?" He asked.
Another surprise?
She looked at his old, tired face, puzzled by his words. Why did he suddenly look like he was fading in her eyes? The more she stared at his face, her vision seemed to blur, no matter how much she squinted her eyes.
"I wish I could have been a good father." His words turned solemn as if it was full of regrets.
