" I'm coming mom! " she yelled back.

" Everybody needs inspiration... Everybody needs someone... " Evelyn hummed and wrote some notes inside her diary.

" You can do it later, no? "
" No papa, if I don't do it now, I'll forget it. "
Her father, Ronaldo anxiously stared at the doorway and back to her, " What is this that you got? "
Evelyn excitedly turned to him, she was always thrilled to perform for her father, he was her biggest fan.
" I haven't gotten a title yet, but it's a special one, I call feel it. "
" What are you waiting for? Let me hear it no? "
Evelyn sniffed and cleared her throat. She began with soft and melodic guitar playing before uttering a word.
" in silence, when no one's listening, I still hear your voice. In silence, when no one's speaking, I still feel your presence. Tears go away, I'm sorry I'm late again, pain go away, I'm sorry I'm late again. "
Evelyn paused as she saw how deep and intensely her father gazed at her.
" Is it good papa? "
" Where did you get the inspiration for this peanuts? "
" It's about love in general. " Evelyn answered.
" but it's too sad, no? "
" Well, I think accepting love is also accepting the presence of pain, don't you think? "
The sudden look her father gave her after her question, was the first hint that all was not well. He gently patted her hands and said, " You're right my child. "
" Is it good? " Evelyn impatiently asked.
" It is very beautiful peanuts, but silent rock is still my favorite. "
Evelyn giggled.
