Currently as I'm putting up the dishes, I say to my son, Lj, "Eat all of your breakfast, okay."

Lj whins, saying, "but I don't want to. Dad said he'll buy me McDonald's this morning after he picks me up."

Raising a questionable brow, I say to him, "So you want me to just throw this good food away when there's all kinds of children in the world that wished they could've eaten this?"

"No, you don't have to throw it away, just eat it. Problem solved," he says in a know it all tone.

I smiled, "Lj, you're too smart on your mouth for your own good. Besides, I already ate breakfast before you came in here, now you need to eat yours. All of it and I'm not playing."

"But mom," he trails off but I shush him up, telling him to go ahead and eat. Lj then grumbles incoherent words before digging into his food, taking an angry bite then folds his arms as he chews. I shook my head at him the same time the doorbell rang so I excused myself before I ran out into the living room only to see Andrew already at the door asking "who's it" through the intercom even though he already knew from the screen. 

He's so crazy!

Oh, did I forget to mention that he was bareback, and that it was Liam at the door?

Well, there you have it.

Just as I took hold of the door knob, Andrew says, "you sure you don't want to just leave him outside because I'm okay with that decision all day everyday," he flashes his signature smile.

I giggled as I shook my head, peeked his lips, then said to him, "babe, I would like to leave him outside on the porch too but we both know that he's Lj's father and that Lj needs to see him, agree?"

Andrew's response was, "No, I don't really agree because I didn't need my dad in my life. But, hey...he's your son and if you say he needs to see him, then okay, he needs to see him."

I stared at Andrew for a few short seconds and I thought to myself, he must be really hurt because his father left him and he's really trying his hardest to portray the fact that he didn't need nor wants his father in his life when deep inside he does need some type of closure from his father so that he wouldn't hold so much resentment in his heart against him. I think it'll be a cool idea to have him sit down with his father so that they can have some type of relationship even if that means they'll only talk twice every month; that's better than not having to talk at all, right? 

Nevertheless, that's a problem for another day. Right now I'm just focused on what I think is best for Lj because Andrew's response is definitely not what I want to hear. And it was stupid of me to ask him his opinion since I knew he most likely wouldn't have agreed with me because he and his father's relationship is messed the hell up like small pieces of puzzles thrown all over the floor.

Blankly staring at Andrew, I rolled my eyes then sighed, saying, "Andrew, oh, Andrew... You're a mess honey and I want to fix you but I can't. You'll have to make that move to help fix yourself."
