PRECIOUS POV...

Sometimes life can give you a hard time but it can be full of surprises.

We feel like, Okay I'm going through a tough time right now but I am resilient enough and positive that everything will be alright and I'll be happy again.

My story started with
'Wood Edwin', I'm so proud and lucky to call him my dad. The day when someone left me in his tent was probably the luckiest day of my life.

A new born baby, nobody wanted to get in trouble and investigation and stuff because of her. But he happily adopted me, and took me to his wife, now my mom, the best mom I could ever asked for. She was so happy that God sent them a daughter. And on the same day their son was born now my brother,
"Winter Wood'.

They both named me, 'Precious Eve' and I still don't know why, they won't tell me.

Dad was in Sewanee. A small town in Tennessee for a mission when he found me.

Winter was born the same day in Sewanee. We both share the same date of birth according to dad. Sewanee is dad's favorite place in Franklin, but we never visited it again because of dads postings. We shifted from Sewanee to Ohio and after that we shifted about twelve times in these past seventeen years.

Dad taught ( basically trained) Winter and I, how to fight, counterattack and so many stuff, when he got back home after every mission.

Mom homeschooled us. We were happy all four together. Dad's posting was coming soon. We were excited to see our new place but life had other plans for us.

              ***************

When we got the news about dad, from the Military Base. The three of us got into a dark numbness.

Dad prepared us for a day like this for a very long time. He always told as before going on a mission that, If I come back home, we'll go on a long vacation and if a news comes then, the three of you will have to come to me proudly.

Uncle frank called mom early in the morning yesterday. He told her about dad. His mission was a success but cost him his life while protecting his fellow soldiers.

Mom strongly took the news. And told us about dad's bravery and golden title of martyred.

Dad always told us that he never wanted to die from a disease. He wanted glory of martyred. Now I know he's in peace.

After seeing off our brave man in the land of martyred. Looking at his peaceful and happy face for the last time, Winter and I broke down in sobs. Mom whispered in a crack voice, "Rest in peace with honor honey."

Seeing his tombstone I smiled weakly.

(WOOD EDWIN)
"A HANDSOME HUSBAND, A DASHING DAD & A PROUD SOLDIER"
(1965 - 2017)

*******************

After the funeral when we got back (home) we never actually had a proper place to call home because of shifting and dads postings after every six or eight months.

When the four of us were together and happy that was our HOME.

Our dad's best friend Uncle Frank told us about dads plans and that he had bought a house and this was supposed to be a surprise, but unfortunate events happened. So we have to shift next week.

"Where exactly are we shifting?' I asked uncle frank.

"To your Dad's favorite town, Sewanee, in Tennessee located in Franklin, Precious dear." Uncle answered me.

"He bought a house there and he was planning to get retired to spend all his time with you guys and to make a place you can finally call (Home).

He enrolled you and Winter, in a high school there too. He shared it with me but, my best friend ditched me and went alone"Uncle explained, tears in his eyes were sparkling."

Uncle Frank told us about all dads plans.

"My Husband was a really good planner as you know Frank.'' Mom said with a heavy heart but a smile on her face, tears still sparklingly in her eyes.

"But how will we go and what will I do? Frank, Wood never told me and never shared his after retirement plans. He loved his job so much that I never dared to ask him." Mom added worriedly.

"Sorry Emma dear I forgot to told you that he bought a cafe there and you'll be the owner now. because he signed the contract of that place, under his and your name..''Uncle Frank explained, what dad had in mind after retirement.

"My friend had all the situations, under control Emma but, life was not planning according to him.'' Uncle bursted while looking at us tears streaming down his face. he really loved dad and respected him as a big brother.

"So when will we leave this place?'' Winter asked him.

His eyes are still swollen like mines, but my baby brother is really a tough guy. He didn't cry in front of mom and me, he cried all by himself after locking up his room and that made my heart shattered seeing this side of Winter.

"Today is 4th of august, you have two weeks to pack. I'll pick you guys up on 21st august in the morning, and It'll be a seven hours flight from Italy to Tennessee, and then you have to go to Sewanee, by road. I'll book a car for you guys." Uncle frank told him. Winter nodded and went back to his room without saying anything.

"Thank you so much Uncle Frank for helping us''I said while hugging him.

"Frank dear, Indeed you are Wood's best friend. Thank you for helping me and my kids in this tough time."Mom added giving him a hug too.

"Wood always treated me like his brother Emma. I share the same pain as you guys. I lost my best friend and a big brother."Uncle Frank objected tears in his eyes didn't stop for a moment and mom started crying too.

"Precious Dear'' Uncle Frank called me as he was leaving, "Yes Uncle."I answered him.

"Wood found you there at that place as you know. That's why it's his favorite place and he was happy that you're going back there, after sixteen years. Take care of yourself, your mom and Winter okay. You are, your dad's strong princess always remember that" I nodded with a smile.

"I will definitely Uncle" I answered him.

After uncle left, I went to my room.

And lay down on my bed thinking about dad and our new home. I heard a song playing in Winter's room.

The lyrics made me emotional but I won't disturb Winter he needs time. We all need some time alone to cope up with what happened to us I listened to the song.

"I want to go up, up and away
From this place that I call home
I've been waiting for the day since I was seventeen years old
I just want to show them that I can make it on my own
I want to go up up and away
Up, up and away"🎶🎶

I stood up walking straight to my picture wall. Seeing dad holding a two years old me in his arms gently.

I said out loud "Sewanee, I'm Coming"
