Chapter 1: Are Promises Meant to be Broken?

My first love story to be blog! =D
Actually, noon ko pa to natapos, but tinatamad akong i-type sa pc. Hehe.
The inspiration of the story was the song, “Blue Sky” by Hale and rainy days.
Some titles are song lyrics too.
So here it is. Hope you like it. =P

“I hate it when it rains... just like now. It's like every drop vanishes the color my world has and in a matter of seconds, everything turns into gray...”

CHAPTER 1: ARE PROMISES MEANT TO BE BROKEN?

Cassie! Cassidy!

From my room; I unexpectedly heard my Dad’s voice. Realizing this, I quickly got out of bed and ran across the hallway. At the top of the stairs, I can see my father’s sturdy figure as he stood at the foot of the banister.

Dad!

With a big grin plastered on my face, I dashed with all my might to meet my father whose embrace I longed for almost half a year. He was back! My parents are back!

Dad! You’re home at last! I’ve waited for so long, Dad!

I cuddled my father firmly. He kept me within his arms and lifted my whole body. I missed how he always did that for me.

And I missed my little princess. How had you been?
Terrible. I missed you a lot. Oh, where’s Mom?
She’s waiting for you outside.

I rushed towards our veranda and there I saw the petite frame of my mother.

Mom!

She embraced me like there was no tomorrow.

Cassidy, my child. I missed you, sweetheart.
I missed you more, Mom. What took you so long in the US? Why arrive just now?
I-it’s was business, Cassie. I’m sorry. From now on, I’ll spend every single day with you.

Mom gave me a weak smile. Her ocean-blue eyes looked like its hiding something from me.

That would be great! Promise me you won’t leave me again, Mama?
Promise.

Later that night, when everyone else in the house was sleeping…

What now, Lewis? The doctor said my illness couldn’t be treated by anyone. We went everywhere in the world! I’m afraid of leaving Cassie. She’s so young. Just so young.
We tried everything, Lethia. Everything.
