There are always those times in our lives that we become desperate and I am not an Exception (I'm part of everyone, duh?!)
There was one time when I don't have any ride to go home. It was raining so hard at that time and there was an overflow of water somewhere in the road. Almost all the cars were blocked from passing through.
I texted my dad if he can come and fetch me. He told me to wait. I thought he would be coming but then I realized for sometime, maybe he won't. But still, I kept my hopes high. I thought he would come and rescue me like a father should. I texted him again but this time, it took him many minutes to reply. I texted my mom then (which is at Canada, I'm here in the Philippines) and told her my situation. For the majority of time, she was the only person that kept me company through text.
My grandma then texted me that I should wait for my uncle to come. He would be the one to fetch me. That was the time when I really became disappointed of my dad. I was really thinking that he would be the one to get me.
I waited for almost an hour for my uncle. At that time, I really wanted to go home and rest. I so need to sleep because I was really tired and feverish. I thought of many things to do just for me to go home immediately. One of them was to faint.
I read in articles that holding your breath doesn't kill you. SO thats what I did. I held my breath until I feel that I was fainting. But then, for a millisecond, I gasped for breath and I could breath normally again. I was kind of disappointed because I failed. I tried many times but then I realized that I would fail over and over again.
When my uncle arrived, I was relieved. I was happy to be able to go home and rest. Bu then I also felt sad because for the last time, I was hoping that it would be my dad to come.
When I arrived home, my grandma was dead worried of me. I was happy to see her too. When I asked where my dad was, she said he was at his room and was sleeping.
Sleeping? really? When all those time I was there, outside, no money, low battery, no transportation, stranded in the rain and desperate to go home, he's here at home sleeping?!
That was the first time that I got REALLY disappointed of my dad. I always thought that he will always be there for me when I need him. But I guess some of those are just silly little things. :(
