Chapter 86

• 'I'm sorry, Asher' Those were the only words his Dad could say when he confronted him. Asher pulled over at the side of the road and slammed his hands on the steering wheel continuously as tears streamed down his cheeks. He tried to hold them back, but they were too much to hold inside. His heart was bleeding in pain and he couldn't contain more tears inside. How the fuck was he so blind over the years? Why did he hurt her so much over the years? Why did he never try to look at things from her perspective? Why didn't he pay attention to these details all along? Asher blamed himself for everything that had happened even though it wasn't entirely his fault.
• Over twenty years ago, their house was in chaos for long before his Mom finally filed for a divorce. His parents would always fight at every slight provocation. And after the divorce, his Dad brought in another woman who was heavily pregnant.
• 'Dad wouldn't have brought in another woman if she had stayed with me' For years, he held on to that, little did he know that the pain was too much for her to take until she could only walk away eventually.
