Two days later
The sound of a phone ringing was rising in the room as I paced around the room waiting for Dad to pick up his phone. I was done putting up with Xavier’s act. And Dad? He has been avoiding my calls. Whenever I call him, he comes up with one excuse or the other. I was
adamant today. I will keep calling until he picks up. The call ended without it getting picked up. I tried again. This time around, I used Facetime. I want us to see eye to eye.
I used the vanity mirror as a stand while I continued to pace around the room. The past two days had been hell for me. I had been managing my life. Trying not to show how broken I was inside to the people around me. Martha always makes sure I eat well. By feeding me with fruits, and vegetables that would boost my immune system.
