I'm in Love with a Church Boy

Father Doesn't Know Best

Manny P.O.V
Today I'm going to go to a Pool Party with Letty, in her neighborhood. First I'm going to my parent's house to comfort my dad about how things have to change. I pulled up to the house and went inside and greeted my dad and asked him where mom was. He said she went to the salon with Candace, then my dad told me my mom has told him about my behavior. He said ever since I started dating Letty I have changed for the worst not the better and that's not how a pastor's assistant should be. I told him why do you treat her so different out of church and then stand there every Sunday telling others how to accept everyone the way God created them. I told him he needs to practice what he preaches instead of trying to run my life. He told me I need to watch who I'm talking to, I told him that he can take everything from me all I need is Letty. He said she has me rapped around he finger, and she is turning me into a thug. He said and I can not have no thug as a assistant so either you break up with Letty or your fired. I told my dad it's no need to fire me because I quit, because Letty is sent from heaven for me and I want to spend my life with her. He told me he would forgive me but I told him I don't need him to forgive me only God. I let him know that I'm my know man and no one can tell me what to do. I told him I don't need no more handouts and he can stop paying my rent and car note, I can get it on my own. He shook his head and said when your done playing around the job and money will still be here, I told him Matthew 6:21 "For where your treasure is,there your heart will be also". I told him that money isn't my treasure Letty is and that's where my heart is. I walked out the house not upset but independent, cause remembered I can do all things through Christ who strengthen me.
