her memory

"tell me about mom" his 7 years old daughter beamed at him one sunny day when they were out in the park.

he remembers her faintly now, the memory of her fading away from him. it has been 6 years now, and all he remembers is her smile in their wedding day and her eyes when she told him she was pregnant, radiating happiness. her face emotionless the moment she dies, and that killed him inside.

"she was perfect" he says to his daughter and thinks that it's the best description of her as he smiles.
