Father

 

"i'm sorry, i couldn't hear any heartbeat," my doctor revealed after just a few minutes of examining my supposed baby bump. my mind went crazy, and my heart beat the fastest and loudest beat ever. i wanted to cry, but there were no tears. i wanted to shout and curse the universe. still, no sounds were coming out. my doctor knew i was on the brink of losing my composure, so she asked me to sit down and gave me a glass of water. "stay calm," she said.

 

waiting for you as i held my tears was the most traumatic part of hearing the news. i could see myself heading in directions only God knows where. i wanted to run away, away from the reality that i would never get to hold in my arms the baby i so wanted to have. "you quietly came into our world, silently, and you stayed shortly. but know that you take up the most room in our hearts." i whispered.

 

"i'm here for you, and i don't care if you need to cry all day long i will stay with you," you said while i was sobbing.

 

the dark underground parking area was our sole witness to how we grieve at the loss of another angel. we were both inconsolable, as God knows how much we wanted the child. but at least we have each other.

 

i looked at you, holding on to your composure, and you began to cry. the kind of cry i've never witnessed from you my whole life. the type of cry only a father could upon losing a child he never gets to hold.
