You were the most powerful man in the world. At least until,

"Is mommy sleeping now?" and the words of a little girl unmakes you.

Instead of being the most powerful man in the world – you became nothing more than a father, nothing more than a husband, nothing more than a simple man whose wife was dead for reasons beyond your control.

"Yes," you closed your eyes and held your daughter close, "yes, mommy is sleeping now."

"When will she wake up?"

"I don't know if she's going to, honey," and everything inside you dies with all the other Americans.

End.
