This story is a sequel to Angel Kisses

"Some ponies... just don't git it. They'll whine and cry; say stupid things they shouldn't to their parents. I know I did to, but... I shouldn't have. When you've been livin' life like I have for so long, you'll finally understand why I feel this way. Why I protect you when they're not even here... why I love you like as if you or ma never left me, still living here... I don't know why I'm down here today... I don't even understand. But I do know one thing... this father's day... is the first one that I haven't been able to hug you tightly or tell you that I love you. Well, I do love you; happy Father's Day, pa." ~ Filly Applejack
