together forever

"I'm sorry"

"oh so you're sorry that your daughter was getting beaten and made feel worthless everyday just because you couldn't be a man! she used to reel me in and take interest in my photos and say I would be a great photographer and I'll get happy and then she would laugh in my face and say I would only end up at the local restaurant. I didn't actually want to be a photographer but I done it to prove her wrong and with the help and support from michael and his siblings along with some friends I actually had I managed to do it"

"wow you got some determination"

"yeah I do and I needed it after a major incident"

"incident?"

"well there was loads my constant being in suicide watch but the major one was the jumping"

"you got jumped?"

"yes your teenage daughter got jumped by her mother's boyfriend and friends which was arranged by her mother because I wouldn't go and buy her alcohol which I couldn't buy even cause of  my age"

"look I'm sorry but I'm here now"

"yeah that's what mom said when she came back"

"I'm not like her, I've changed myself please let me prove it to you"

"mom also said that but she jumped me herself a few months later, so no you left without a goodbye your last words to me was 'goodnight angel I love you loads and I promise to take you to the skatepark tomorrow' then the next day you were gone never to be seen again"

"I'm sorry I'll take you to the skatepark"
