His dark hair turned white entirely due to old age, his clothes were... his clothes weren’t worn out like they used to, it was clean and okay.
My papa indulged himself with so printed paper like he always does to know what was happening in the society, and it was afternoon, he should be at his mining job but then it dawned on .

"Papa," I said, sobbing.

he was sorry? even though he didn’t say it in words, I just had a feeling he was.

"Thank you" I finally broke the silence between us.
"For showing
my papa
