The hospital room was quiet and still. Anna sat by her father, holding his hand. "Do you remember when you taught me to ride a bike?" she asked with a shaky voice. Her father's eyes twinkled, and he smiled softly. "You fell a lot, but you always got back up," he whispered. Anna nodded, feeling both happy and sad. "That's because you wouldn’t let me quit!" Tears started to flow down her cheeks.

Anna felt her heart racing. Her father squeezed her hand one last time. "Never quit, Anna. Never." His voice faded and the room became silent. She sat there, feeling the weight of goodbye. She wanted to cry, but she remembered his words. "I will be strong! Just like you taught me!" she whispered to him. Anna smiled through her tears, her heart filled with love, knowing she would carry his spirit with her always.
