Chapter 87

* Reda Faith *

Days have passed by until it became weeks. I tried to keep myself busy by going out to the malls and buying things that I didn't need. Pretending that everything is alright, that I am enjoying my vacation. Dad did not ask me again for my job, but I knew that he would be asking soon. Then it was one month when I felt more tired than ever. Perhaps what I felt was more emotional than physical, because I had a hard time sleeping whenever I thought of him. He can't call me because I changed my number and blocked him on my phone.

But one day when I was just sleeping and woke up late, I heard my Dad and my grandpa in the living room watching the news. I walk out of my bedroom surprised to see the time on the wall clock that strikes at five pm.

"Hello dear, you woke up just now?"
