Two weeks ago I bought myself a new converse..
When I went home I wanted to try on my new pair of shoes , yet I found that one of the pair has its shoelace unfastened which is normal with any new pair of shoes.
I remembered Daddy , who used to fasten my shoelace each time I buy a new one.
He is the one who taught me how to tie my shoelace.
He used to help me while choosing any new pair.
Back to my unfastened shoelace , I took the shoelace and the converse … I went to my brother and I said to him " would you please fasten my shoelace , as it is Dad who used to do this for me and now as there is no Daddy , I need you to do it for me"
He said " ok "
Within minutes ,I had my shoelace fastened ,a smile on my brother face and a tear on my face because he did it the same way my father used to do it.
And yesterday I had the same thing again , I found my sister holding her new pink converse which has one of its pair with unfastened shoelace… coming to me with a frown on her face saying :
" could you do this shoelace for me … Daddy used to do it "
I was speechless for a moment , then I said "ok I'll "
although I was not sure that I can do it the right way.
But it happened that " I did it "
I made it and she was happy with a smile on her face.
As for me, I had the same tear but this time with a smile.
I had nothing to say but a whisper dedicated to my father : " We'll be ok Daddy"
By the way : the last time I bought a pair of shoes when dad was still here , he told me that I have to learn to do it myself so that I need no one … he said " What will you do if I am not here "
I love you Dad.
