My Beloved Father

This one post is dedicated to my Father..

Among all my family, I always feel my Dad knows me best. We have the same interests; music, gadgets, and a bunch of others things. Our closeness make me feel comfortable to share stories or things to my Dad. Other than mutual interests, we have the bond, the special of bond of father and daughter, you know?


My result for the first semester was not really good , in fact, it was disappointing. I won't blame anyone for the result but me. I was the who lacked in studying, I was the one who didn't use the time well. So when my Mom called yesterday and yelled at me, I couldn't help to just remained silent. That moment I realized how I've made a big mistake, how I've made my parents sad.


I'm not trying to blabber things up, but really since that day I've been serious on my study. Unlike my Mom, Dad hasn't said any word about my score.


This morning, without any clear reason why, I texted my Dad, asking how he was doing and so on. Later on he replied my SMS, saying he's fine and all things are good. He's going to have business trip next week and again the next two weeks. And in the end of the SMS, he wrote,
"Tetep semangat ya san :)"


I felt I wanted to cry right there, at that moment. Instead of be angry with me, instead of showing how he has disappointed, he cheered me up and ask me to keep on going! I felt I was such a seditious child.


"My parents send to me to university so I can study and become a better person. Every second, every minute I spend on that uni chair cost my parents a fortune. They provide me with all the things I need, even all the things I want. And what have I given back to them?" That' what I think.


The moment I read that sentence from Dad, I've made a decision to not disappoint them again. My Dad , even though I know I've made him sad, he still cheers me up, put his hopes and trust on me. I just can't waste it anymore...

Thank you Dad, for the hope and spirit you trust on me
Thank you Dad for keep on believing in me
Thank you Dad for the encouragement, the warm feeling you send trough the SMS.
Though it may be a short one, but it was really meaningful to me..

Hope to see you soon Dad, stay healthy and may you will always be blessed by our thy God..
GBU :)
