A Biased Mother
In a daze, I recalled how things had been before I turned six.
Back then, although my parents favored Andrew because he was younger, they still showed me a decent amount of care.
But the year I turned six, I accidentally stumbled upon Dad hugging another woman downstairs.
Too young to understand what was happening, I ran and told Mom about it. She confronted Dad, and a huge argument erupted.
I stood there dumbly, not grasping the situation. However, I had a faint inkling that Dad had done something to hurt Mom. So, I stepped forward and planted myself in front of her. Then, I sternly told Dad not to bully Mom.
