My Father

My Father
Mom says, I am so much like my father. I had his eyes, his lips, his love, his stubbornness, his ideas, and also his leadership. She says that whenever she saw me, I would immediately remind her of him.
I don't know if everything that she told me is true, but I do believe her. I love my father as much as I love my mom.
Once in a while, I love to hear my father do a debate with people. Because then, I would learn more things about my father, I would learn so much how to defend my perception, how I should see things, and how to finally negotiate people to go with my idea. Even though I still dominate at my school activites when I joined the organization, I still learn to go with people's ideas too; just like what my father does to my mother when he knows he can't pursue for what he wants anymore.
For me, my father plays the most important role in my life. Yeah, my other family members also play some important stuffs in it, but he do taught me the most things about how I should handle my life. He taught me so many things that I have never thought of learning from a father, some things that also my mother couldn't teach me. It's a thing only my dad can do, the thing that makes me very fond of him as a daddy's girl.
My most favourite time with my dad would have to be when our father-daughter time grew better. Because since then, I can run to him and hug him whenever I feel insecure or scared; I can rely on him and tell him more stories I have never told before. He can tell me that things will be fine and simply make me believe in everythings he have said. Some people have said, it is called as the power of a father.
As I have said that my father is a stubborn person, my dad is pretty much a gentle and soft-hearted person inside. He knows for what he aims for in his life, and only my mom knows what he really likes and what he really dislikes. I mean, it's really sweet that only his wife knows what he really is like inside.
The best thing I have learn about my father is his leadership and dominance. Maybe, I don't even learn about it; because it's in my blood. I have been in a lot of times in becoming the class leader and other titles because at one side, many have people claimed that I am a brilliant girl in school and I simply had an easy time to grab my teacher's attention to actually like me and had me put on those things. They trust me because they can easily see my persistence, leadership, hard working, willingness to keep the excitement alive, and especially the love. I am very proud that my dad actually passes down those characteristics to me.
I am so much proud that I can still hug my dad these days; for I know that there will come a day that I could not hug him because he wouldn't be there for me anymore. I like who I have become today as a young lady, the way both my parents have teached and turned me to be tough girl on the outside, but understanding and caring on the inside. I know that this is what my father have dreamt to see in his little girl, to grow on like him, the way I have become a teenager.
But someday, I wanted to marry a man like my dad; who is damn hard working, stubborn like hell, but can go crazy about my mom. Who can talk about what he thinks of something, teach her little girl softly, and talk to me whenever I need him. Daddy, I would love to say that I love you so much and you are the best dad a girl could ever ask for.
