Text A little girl regretted later in life for having lost the chance to give her daddy one last hug. She really wanted to give her daddy a hug. What prevented her from doing so? The night was soft and warm as I lay gazing at the ceiling. The whole house was quiet, except for the occasional coughing from my own congested throat, I lay on the sofa exaggerating my illness as children are likely to do. Tomorrow I would probably be dead. Mama said it would go away, but she could be wrong, couldn’t she?

I was thinking of the hospital.We had gone there that afternoon to visit my father for Valentine's Day.We had to go the day before the actual holiday because Mama said we couldn't get out of school to go on Monday.The hospital was a huge place.It seemed to me like a giant castle which I would be lost in forever if I wasn't careful.Everything was white and I remembered seeing all kinds of ladies dressed up in funny white things with all their hair covered up with some sort of cloth.I asked who they were,but I don't think I should have because my mother looked rather embarrassed and hushed me.I found out later that they were nuns. I thought nuns were only found in convents.That confused me for a while,but I soon found something else to arouse my curiosity
