“You’re a freak, you know that? You’ve always been a freak. Everyone says so. They always have.”
“I’m trying not to be.” Then, I turned around and walked to my room and closed my door
and put my head under my pillow and let the quiet put things where they are supposed to be.
By the way, I figure you are probably curious about my dad. Did he hit us when we were kids or now even?
I just thought you might be curious because Bill was, after I told him about that boy and my sister.
Well, if you are wondering, he didn’t. He never touched my brother or sister.
And the only time he ever slapped me was when I made my Aunt Helen cry.
And once we all calmed down, he got on his knees in front of me and said that his stepdad hit him a lot,
and he decided in college when my mom got pregnant with my older brother that he would never hit his kids.
And he felt terrible for doing it. And he was so sorry. And he would never hit me again.
And he hasn’t. He’s just stern sometimes. Love always, Charlie
