It's been years now, Melita hasn't found her biological father yet.
She did everything she could to find her father, unfortunately
she lost hope.

Melita lived with her mother and stepfather in a small village.she loved singing but was too shy to sing in front of people,she sang mostly when she's too happy or sad.it was very rare to find her singing.

After the death of her stepfather,she and her mother were forced to leave the village.They packed everything and left.
They went to stay with Melita's grandmother in another village.

few years later, she was sitting on a rock alone near a river when a Man heard her singing beautifully.
The man came closer and closer near Melita behind her.Melita looked behind her and saw the man.'who are you?' She asked the man.

'Wow, your voice is wonderful,it remind me of my daughter whom I lost many years ago,' The man said.
'This is the song my father used to sing for me,I lost him too many years ago'. she cried.
'i lost my wife and a daughter too,I hope you find your father'. The man turned away.
'you too' She said.

Melita got home, worried.Her mother asked why she's so worried and she told her about the man.'I will pray so hard that the poor man find her daughter and wife'. Melita said.

One day when she was walking with her grandmother,she saw that man and greeted him. 'Haven't you found your father yet?' The man said.
'No' Melita said. 'Have you found your wife and daughter,how old are they?' she asked.
The man said 'my daughter is fifteen as I'm saying now and her mother could be fourty by now'.

she ran home without looking back and left the man with her grandmother.She ran straight to her mother's bedroom and found her mother sleeping. 'Mother!, how old are you?'she asked.
'Melita what's wrong? I'm fourty you know that' Melita's mom said.
Melita was very happy...

'I found my father!' She shouted.
'Where is he?' Melita's mom asked,shocked.
'He, too is looking for us,mom! 'Melita and her mother left the house and went were Melita left her grandmother,but they found the man gone. 'Where is the man,granny?' Melita asked,sad.

'He left' Melita's grandmother said.
They went home and did not believe what Melita was saying.
days passed by,Melita was looking for the man but could not find him.
One day when she was holding a picture of herself and her mother walking on a street,a strong wind suddenly came and thrown the picture away,she looked everywhere for the picture but it was nowhere to be found.

few days passed and the man came to Melita's home and showed Melita the picture of her daughter and wife. 'Here is my daughter and wife'
Melita was so surprised' This is me and my mom' The man looked at Melita. 'Is this you?' The man asked.
Melita's mom came. 'Alferd?,is this you?'
'Melita's mom?' The man cried so hard. 'I have been looking for you and Melita'.

Melita found her father.Her father was a teacher of singing stars in the village and from then Melita too became a teacher after she won a trophy of singing in a competition as she was a very beautiful singer.Melita and her family lived happily ever after..
