A Night With The Past
My father's addiction was the usual topic, so I took the towel and went to take a bath, when I left the hallway to go to the space I had in common with my parents, I stopped when I heard the most paralyzing phrase of all:
"If Abel doesn't change, I'm going to report him and turn off the tap."
"Bruce," my mother's plea was clear in his voice, "there's no need to threaten..."
"Do you call that threatening? The man has become a human dispossession, he accuses me of taking money from him that never fell into my hands, he does not support his family, nor does he take responsibility. Both you and Emma herself must organize themselves to eat, have everything ready since he does not lift a finger.”
