At the launch of my label in 2019 , she was just 9 and PFW coincided with my birthday .
Before we left Lebanon to Paris ,she hid her gift to me inside our luggage , then under the pillow as we arrived to the hotel .
She sang to me happy birthday at 5 am next day , first of March .
At the fashion week she was everywhere , part of everything .
A true Spark . The spark.
Last year she made me her own recipe birthday cake .
This year , she stayed till the first of March .
I sang happy birthday to me while holding her warm hand .
She left second day .
She always done things perfectly .
Even when choosing her absence .
She leaves me with a sense of bewilderment .Respect . Admiration .
She was a box full of surprises all the time .
But she also needed peace .
To recharge .
You see , She was a giver .
That’s the daughter I had in my life and still do .
Such humans travel in and beyond , if you re lucky you encounter them for some time , some moments or a few years .
That wonderful human was with me very briefly then left me both her heart , her brain and most of all her passion about everything and nothing .
The way she came in and out of my life is the story of my life .
