So, I've gone "no contact" with my father, my mother having long been gone. I just can't handle who my father is and what he has to do for his so-called "job." It's not like he has to have the job anyway... he could walk away from it if he had the balls. But he doesn't. I think he actually likes it, hence the no contact. I had been hiding from him for years and was building a life for myself until recently. Will messed that all up, damn him. I should never have fallen for him. I should have known better when he said that he'd defected from my father's ranks. Now, I'm stuck with him, on the run three decades in the past in a strange country. I can only hope my father doesn't find me. If he does, it'll be hell to pay.
