I remember this artwork from One Tree Hill because today my dad left for New Zealand. He is our king in here but he would always rather give it up. Now he lives there alone. He does dishes, washes his own clothes and irons them after, cooks his own food and eats them all by himself - things he would not do but has to. All for me and my dreams. 

We may be used to this leaving-and-going-home cycle but one thing's for sure - I'd rather have him here even if he does not allow me to drive and buy all the shoes I want because nothing compares to the feeling of us watching tv and having dinner together, buying groceries during weekends, bringing me to my dorm on Sundays and fetching me every Friday. I'll miss him. Wala na naman ako aasarin. :)))
