We stood there hugging for what seemed like forever. I mean can you blame me? I miss him, but something still doesn't feel right. Why would he show up out of nowhere? It just doesn't make amy sense.
"Dad, why are you here?" I asked looking up into his eyes.
"My little dolphin. You know how dolphins swim?" he asked.
"Um, ya. I guess." I said really confused.
"Well, think of me as a dolphin, I'm gonna go for a swim for a while." He said looking into my eyes, as if they didn't seem hurt enough. Now he's moving?!
"Where are you 'swimmimg' to exactly" My voice shook, but I tried so hard not to cry.
"China." He responded. My heart dropped. He came to see me from God knows where, just to tell me he's moving to a completely different country? It felt as if a ten thousand pound weight dropped onto my heart. I felt like I couldn't breathe because of this devastating news. My heart is crushed.
"You came to see me for the first time in three years just to tell me you're moving to a completely different part of the world?!?" I replied finally after five minutes. Sounding more angry than I intended. I wasn't angry,I was depressed, sad, confused.
He couldn't seem to answer that. He tried but he couldn't form the words. He realized that I was not the happiest person right now. I am pretty sure that he knows that I'm more depressed about the situation than anything, this all is just so stupid.
"I'm sorry Alixx. It's for business." He finally replied, "But I promise I will see you more often than I do now."
"Isn't that what you said when you deliberately left me here? How are you going to manage seeing me? You're going to live across the world." I screamed.
With that, I ran to my room and dug my face in my pillow. Why? Why does all of the bull shit in life happen to me? Why is my dad's head so screwed up? I then laid there until I fell asleep, crying, as usual.
When I was falling asleep all I could focus on was my parents screaming at each other. My mom yelling at my dad for not showing up for three years and then come back into my life just to leave again, and my God forsaken father arguing back with, "She had the right to know!" Dad, I think mom won this argument. Why come back into my life to leave? You just made everything a whole lot worse and made me even more distraught than I already am.
CRASH!
And there goes my moms brand new coffee table. She spent a lot of money on it, and now its broken. Good going 'Dad'.
I don't understand. I just went from thinking everthing of my dad, to hating his guts. He abandoned me. I have the right to be upset. Don't I?
