"An Army's Daughter"

The Phone was ringing, 

I rushed to pick up, 

But, again it disappointed me... 

It was not u but the company.... 

Yes.... 

Papa, I was waiting for your calls from last two days...

But I never lost my hope, 

Though It was full of pain and lots of anxiety, 

But patiently... I waited for it... 

My lips are praying Unstoppable, 

with all my heart but never get faint..... 

Finally God listened to me... It rang again.... 

I hurried.....

and Thank God, It's u..... 

That feelings can't be express in words... 

I was very happy... 

So....

My first question:--- 

Why don't you call us from last 2 days..... 

Did you have any idea... 

How much we got stressed?? 

He replied in his usual manner--

I'm very sorry Beta.... 

From last two days we don't have any signal.... We are out of network.... 

Because a severe snowstorm has break all the poles.... 

At that moment I was not ready to listen any thing.... 

My eyes were filled... And I burst into tears... 

Mum tried to console me and 

Papa reassuring that I'm fine here,

'Don't get panic...

You are my Strong daughter... '

"Tears are not made for you 

These are made for cowards"

Life might not have been easy for this daughter of an Army man. We missed growing up with my father. He too, must have missed seeing his children grow during those years.

When some of my friends asked why didn't your father was there when you were in bed.... 

I proudly replied them that he is making the country great and country needs him more than m

But, somewhere inside me, I always missed him badly...

And always trying my self to become more stronger to don't let them know..... 

For me my biggest happiness was when he comes home and my biggest sorrow was saying goodbye when he go back to his work.... 

My only wish was just to hold his hand.... 

No matter where I go, What I do.... 

Of course, 

Each and everyday I miss my father.... 

During the Festival, where all others are enjoying with their families.... 

During Vacations when others are planning 

for a trip...

I missed him, on my birthdays, 

I missed him on PTA meetings, 

  I missed him when the fair start in the

nearest town.... 

I missed him when I was in pain

to get his comfort soothes and bring me back

I missed him, Because 

No one in this world can love a girl more than her father.... 

Yes.... I missed him a lot in last 12 years 

Because we are alone..... 

 

It was not all easy to became an Army personnel. They serve their country first and left behind their life. Their families also have that kind of strength, courage, and have done so many sacrifices.... 

Her mother have to so strong.... Because not every mother in this world could have the courage to put her child into the battle ground...

Her scars might be harder to see... But from down inside her she really bleeds.... 

No doubt she honoured the privilege of Being an Army mom.... 

After all, she is also a mother...
