boss, my daddy

‘thank you for everything this year. without you, i wouldn’t know how to get through this year.’

my boss or my so-called daddy told me last night when we were at the company party (when mark was in town).

in return i said, ’sorry for all mistakes i’ve made.’

‘no, there’s no mistake for trials.’

that made my eyes filled with tears. what my daddy said was appreciative, impressive and touched. he saw the tears that came out a bit in my eyes.

‘i’m serious, really.’

‘i know.. thank you.’

..

.

‘merry christmas and happy new year. thank you for everything.’

(and we gave each other a few warm hugs.)

‘thank you. merry christmas and happy new year. have a good trip.’

daddy should now be on a plane back to sydney, his hometown.

’see you next year.’
