on a daytime, there was a little princess brought to the world. she was lovely and joyful. when her mother was trying to put her to sleep, she discovered, the little princess was a daddy's girl. she gave her her father's shirt and she stopped crying. from the day on, her mom only gives her her father's shirt to put her to sleep.

as she grow older, she was more loud than she is. she would go cry over little things and would laugh over nonsense jokes. she likes to hang out with her friends that she's rarely seen at home.

then, she finally hit the age of twelve. she remember her mother once told her, "we dream of having at least one male child, but we were given you instead." and she felt unwanted. that's not what it meant, but still that's how she felt. like her birth was the scissor that cuts her parents' dream.

on her six years in primary school, her father was hospitalized, and that was the day she participated in a pageant. her mom rushed to go to her school after buying her something to wear, then rushed back to the hospital again. then one day, in the same year, she got hospitalized as well. after few days she went out, and she heard a word from her mom. "that was a budget to fix our house, the money we used for hospital." and she felt something in her again, like she's a burden to her parents.

then three years after, she got hospitalized again. she stayed there for a week, not being able to met any of her family excepts her mother for a few days. at night that she can't sleep, her mother stayed awake by her side, accompanying her. they had a little chat and her mother said, "your dad did all his best to meet you but he's not allowed. the hospital just won't let him in. he really wanted to meet you, to know how's you doing, and to see you. he misses your voice." with a lovely smile in her tearful eyes. the little princes can only smile through the pain, she misses not only her father but her siblings as well.

the next day of her discharged, they traveled, and the place where they went has she visited once. when she visited there, alone with her father, she was lonely, rarely talk nor go out the house. but this time, with her father, mother, and siblings, she's as loud as she is. she go talk and laugh with anyone her parents knew. but that wasn't it all... she will just start to have her nightmare.
