My Dear Daddy

Daddy,
He will drive me to school everyday without being late even though he is occupied with his shift work in the airport. Despite the hassle, the rush, and the stress of being caught in the traffic jam, for the last 13 years, he never breathes any words of complaint. I promised myself; by the end of every year, without fail, I will ensure he will be invited for my school's prize giving ceremony. As he looked as I stood up on the stage to receive my academic trophy, he smiled and cheered for me from below. He would take leave on that particular day, put on his best dress. He knew his hard-work and sacrifices had paid off well ...

Daddy,
We share the laughter and passion together while watching football on TV. Ironically, we do not support the same teams; indeed our teams are bitter rivals of all time. He cheers for Arsenal while I sing Glory Glory Manchester United! No matter what the outcome of the match for our teams, we toss the Beers and cheer for the time we have ...

Daddy,
He is the one who introduced me to Aviation ever since I was a little kid. He taught me "A for Aeroplane", unlike most other parents will teach their children, "A for Apple". Occasionally in the evening, whenever he was not working, he would drive me in his creamy white Toyota car to the airport. He would park his car beside the road, overlooking the long runway, holding me tight around his broad arms, whispering softly into my ears, "Son, this is an aeroplane, and this is where your destiny begins!". The joy of seeing the aeroplane took off with its wheels departing from the ground was overwhelming, even though it was just a split moment. As I grew up, I developed deep interest in aeroplane, as if there was a strong bond and fondness between us ...


Daddy,
You are the Hero for all us,
You work hard, day and night,
in rain nor under the sun,
so that, we can have hot meals
three times a day on the table,
so that, we can have a shed under the roof
from the ferocious wind and burning sun,
so that, we can have books to study,
clothes to wear and money to spend!

We love you, Daddy!
Happy Father's Day!

Love always,
Keith, Karen and Kelvin
