looked at me, walked away
Well, i got around to talking to my mom. I surprised myself by shedding some tears too. But the crux of the conversation was that i had to get through to my dad, because, even my mom has to turn to him. She actually gives him ALL her pay and gets a fixed allowance every month.
Talk about conservative values.
I tried initiating a talk. Trust me, i tried.
I waited till he was done with his routine nightly smokes in the kitchen, then as he was returning to his room, i stood in front of him and called, "Papa".
He looked at me as though i had poked him in the eye, turned, and walked straight to his room.
I stood there, waiting. Hoping that he would come to the doorway.
He didn't.
