A ride going to HOME

Today I took a different route going home. Instead of riding a bus going to the terminal, I decided to ride the MRT (Metro - Rail Transit), that lead me to see this amazing thing.

I waited for the train for about 5 minutes or so. When it finally came, the door closest to my place of rest was full of people that when I try to go inside, I'll bounce back. So, not following the idiosyncrasy, I decided to go to the next door of the train. Well, at least people there were fewer. As I walk towards the door, I noticed this guy near the door, trying to get inside. He was having a hard time getting in not only 'coz, he's extremely attractive btw, he has a bag that's quite enormous, but also he carries a little baby girl. From what I saw and estimation I think the baby girl is about 1 year old or less. I think she's the daughter of the one who keeps her. I was a little puzzled from what I saw 'coz from the looks of the guy, I assume he's in his early 20's, an range of age too young to have a baby. As the train traverse it's way to every station, I can't help but look at the guy. I mean, he's that attractive and I can't take my eyes off him. Every time I take a glance of him, I slightly pity him 'coz, he was standing holding his baby on his right while carrying that big bag. He was having a hard time holding on the railings until finally, one passenger sitting left off the train and he was given the vacant seat. At that point, I went closer to him, curious of his situation.

As I continue to look at him, I saw this beautiful thing.

He was talking to his baby girl, almost whispering. I don't know what he was saying because the baby wasn't giving me much of a reaction to what his father was saying to her. The sight of it was heart-warming. By just talking to his girl, I saw how much care the father has for his baby. He even took a bottle of water from his bag and ask his baby if she wants to drink, if she's thirsty or something (I just assume that this was what the guy was doing based on his action). If my eyes can take pictures, I would have made a photo album of that scene, taking pictures of how true caring means. I was in extreme delight to see such scenic view that it almost made me cry. I may not have the total idea of it but from what I was witnessing that moment was just a little of what a father could give to his daughter. When we were on the last station, I couldn't bear what I was seeing so I decided to get off the train as fast as I could, leaving with a heart all overwhelmed. I realize, that was what I call home. Someone who cares for you at all times and can give you love without boundaries.

From what I experienced, I want to have a family of my own. I really do. I want to experience what the guy is experiencing today. I want to give love to my children without asking anything in return. I may want this now, but, it can still wait. Hopefully, something will be waiting. This, I'll make happen. :)
