The week before he had held my hand and told me that he could change in an effort to improve our relationship. All I needed to do was give him a chance.
Fast forward 6 days.
“It doesnt matter that you called, I have given up on you.”
How is it possible to be given up on by someone who is supposed to love me unconditionally?
“You’ve given up on me? In the last six days?”
“Long before the last six days. You had your chance to make it work and you didnt do it. So I’ve given up on you.”
I guess it wasnt the first time he had done it, but now I had to decide if it would be the last.
“Is this because I didnt make plans for us yesterday?”
“This is because you are not who I thought you were and clearly you never will be,” he paused.
The words were english, plain spoken and to the point and yet I had no idea what he was saying.
he continued, “I gave you seven years to be who I wanted you to be. You didnt do it. Your not worth the energy, so I’m done.”
“Ok Dad, you can be done, I love you.”
“No you don’t.”
