2 Saturdays ago, Dad and I had a fight. It was a shouting match that made him verbally disown me.
That's how drastic this father-daughter I-know-you-love-me-the-most-but-I'm-also-your-greatest-disappointment-and-I'm-sorry-Pa relationship can get.
A week later, Huini wrote about how she and Ziwei had Mac's with my dad. I cried as I read it.
I can never have that kind of relationship with my dad anymore. Not after I got pregnant, not after I disappointed him with my unbecoming ways, not after he resigned to the fact that I am unfit to be his granddaughter's mother, not after I hurt his feelings by saying nasty things, not since he told me that I was unfit to be his daughter.
Yesterday, I finally had a chance to heal this gangrenous relationship.
I had nasi lemak breakfast with my dad along West Coast.
Just the two of us.
