Mi papa
While I was reading Teen Ink, my eyes stopped at this short but touching article,"Mi Papa." "Why isn't my dad around?" That also the question I have been asking myself since I realized that the person next to me only mom. As I grow up, I know that "... no matter what language, "Dad" was never an important word in my vocabulary". Dad left us while I was still in Mom's stomach. However, with my little family, I never think of him for once. I have my sister and mom. I thought my life was completed with just this, but then I realized that I was so lonely. I need HIM! No matter how much I and my family need him when we weren't fine, he couldn't be with us. That was time when I understand that, having no father is fine. We're been through this many hardships without him already, so why does it better? Thanks to Anna, I get to know that there are too many teen that can possible have a good life without their father.
