ELENA
There!
I finally spoke the words that I was meant to tell dad for a long time. He might have expected to hear them before, but I was too coward to confess my feelings to him.
I did the same mistake with Devon too. But that day in his office, when I finally mustered up enough courage to tell him what my heart wants, and my mind thinks, I realised how important it is to express your feelings to your loved ones.
You keep waiting for the right time, or else you are too afraid to open those coverings over your heart that you have patiently built to protect yourself. But in the end, when you realise that you are finally ready to voice out your deepest feelings, it is already too late to do that.
And I didn't want this exact situation to happen to me. Thus I told Devon that I loved him. I did... I really did!
And now I told that to dad because more than anything else, that was what really mattered to both of us.
