I was bothered by my daughter's half-teasing, slightly condescending attitude. She seemed a bit arrogant, and deep down, I felt an odd sense of frustration. But behind that attitude were incredibly cute expressions and actions that gradually shook my heart. I made weak excuses in front of my wife, but in the end, I couldn't suppress it no matter how hard I tried. This is nothing short of a pathetic record, even I admit that. Still, I kept telling myself that somehow, somewhere, I'd eventually let go.
