Chapter 32
Thanks JennDur for beta'ing for me.
Dad left for a week, stayed across the rez with the Atearas. None of us had spoken to him and when he showed up one night while we were eating dinner, I thought there'd be another fight. Shockingly though, he was very polite when he came by, asking my mother if he could speak with her.
Seth and I went to his room, just like the week before except this time we left the door wide open. We were both in agreement that if Dad got out of line, we wouldn't hesitate in throwing him out.
"Susie-Q," he started, "I'm sorry."
"You're sorry?"
"Yes. I'm sorry I yelled and argued. I want to come back home. I miss you."
"Missing me and saying you're sorry does not make up for what you have done," she told him. "I don't think you ever can."
