It wasn't the same.

After that day, the day that my father failed a mission that was so important-

It wasn't the same-

He wasn't the same.

His breath smelled of alcohol which stunk up the whole house, his words all slurred and his mind seemingly broken like the empty bottles of sake he carelessly threw to the ground. He was no longer the gentle and kind man he once was. At least not while he was dazed and drunk out of his mind. It was as if his head was poisoned by the village's hate and his own. He's destroying himself mentally and physically, but not just himself. He's hurting his own child. His mistakes reflect onto me, and his fear urges him to push me to my limit.

"You have to do better"

He says

"You mustn't do what I have done"

He says

"They hate you too, you know"

He says

"And if they find out what you really are they will hate you and hate you and hate you-"

And he trains me.

Hurts me.

Breaks me just to make me better.

And then....... he forgets. He forgets the pain he puts me through because he wasn't sober at the time and all that is left of the fight are broken objects and stains of blood. But there are no wounds. At least, not on me. They disappear before he can even see for himself the pain he put his own son through. And I say nothing. Because when he wakes up, he's my father again. Kind and gentle and..... oblivious.

He's not the same anymore, and neither is my life.
