Eldest Daughter and Her Father
Eldest daughter and her father,
not much is talked aboud this duo.
She inherited his stubbornness,
his habit of carrying entire storms without ever naming the rain.
She learned strength by watching him, learned sacrifice, and how to swallow pain until it sounded like composure.
They say daughters grow up searching for men like their fathers, but eldest daughter is different.
She doesn't look for a man like her father.
She becomes the man like her father.
The provider. The Protector.
The one who says, "I'm fine" while breaking quietly inside.
And perhaps that is why she understands him so deeply,
because she inherited not just his love, but the loneliness of being the strong one.
