Why now? You left for ten years and now you want me.
I was five. FIVE! I wasn't good enough for you.
I just wanted to know the truth and I was finally told. You were married!
What is wrong with you? Your wife was at home with you son.
My brother who hates me because of you. You lied to him. You lied to mom. You lied to your wife at the time. You lied to me.
How did you do it? How did you lie to a child you called your little girl, your little princess.
I was nothing to you. I was something you hated only because everyone seen you in me.
I had your eyes, your face, the curly hair that my sister has.
You still denied me.
Everything that was proved you denied.
You
are
NOT
a  
Dad
You never stayed
