She was not particularly skilled with words, coming across as rather cold and emotionless.

Sometimes I wished she could be like other young women,

Throwing tantrums, demanding more of my attention.

I knew well that relationships need nurturing. For every holiday, no matter how small, I made sure to create a sense of occasion.

Red envelopes, gifts, social media posts ? everything was meticulously planned.

With our fair share of bumps and squabbles, but our bond grew warmer.

Because as a newborn, she was as cute as a little meat Molly.

Just when I thought we could continue living this simple life forever,

The universe played a cruel joke on me.

First, I won five million dollars, then I was handed a death sentence.

Looking at the report in my hands,

Late-stage stomach cancer.
