The Other Side of the Story He has always been there for me. Ever since I was a little girl my dad and I have had a special bond, I could talk to him about everything, and he listened, even to the things he really didn’t care to know. It was a goal of his to make sure my sister, my mom and I all felt loved no matter what he had to go through to make that happen.

it does. Jay hasn’t really said anything about what happened and I don’t think he really cares. He’s been calling me more often so I think that means whoever he was supposed to be seeing cut him off.

There was only one word on my mind and it was DAD. I screamed hysterically and cried in the bathroom, screaming for my dad. Nothing was the same if he did not come to my birthday. If you had asked my mother, she would have described me as a gnat. I was constantly asking her every few minutes, when my dad was going to be there. All I ever wanted was to be in his truck, singing along with him to “Paint Me a Birmingham” like we did every other couple of months when he was around. This was our way…

The blanket created a pattern on her face like it was drawn by a child while she has been asleep. The red and black alarm vibrates beside the thin mattress, never being too loud as she didn’t want to wake The Man Upstairs. That’s what we call him, The Man Upstairs.
