Chapter 133 Gary Slipped

• Dad looked terrified as if my arrival was disturbing their peaceful lives. Before I could process his words, he had already pulled me away from Mom. he pushed me out the door, but I held his arm, refusing to leave. I shook my head and pleaded, "Don't chase me out, Dad!" However, he turned a deaf ear to my please as he was adamant about chasing me out. I was bawling like a little girl at this point. "Dad, I miss you. Both of you. Please don't chase me away. I'll just stay for one night."
• Dad stopped pushing me, but he seemed to age ten years in that instant. I stood outside the door while he stood inside. "I miss you. I miss you a lot. Nine years and not a day passed where I did not want to go back and see you. I keep wondering if she's doing fine. If anyone has been mistreating her. I wonder if she has gotten married and has her own kid. Your mother and I have missed you, but we never did get any news about you. It wasn't until your news hit Twitter that we saw you again. You've grown into a pretty lady. I told your mother, 'That's our daughter. She's all grown up and married to some punk now. But the guy she married is a piece of shit. She's unhappy and now divorced.' Your mother couldn't even sleep when she found out you're divorced. I kept telling her that it was fine. At least someone better would come along and give her the love she deserves."
• I felt the waterworks turn on, and every word my father said carved a chunk of my heart out. It was as if my heart was bleeding and in agony, but miraculously, what he said was healing me as well.
