Re: Theodore/Hugh
We'll do better this time, I promise.
Oh. Do you resent him, then? Or, either of them? That seems like a complicated set of emotions to have to work through on both fronts. I might have trouble understanding your perspective, if I'm being perfectly truthful, so my questions come from a place of genuine curiosity: I hated my father, and it was mutual. Very straightforward and uncomplicated. He put me in an awkward situation and got me in trouble with the law, and then [...] died when I was seventeen and left me to clean up the mess.
The only time I think of him now is if I'm not certain about a parental instinct. I ask myself what he would do, and then do the opposite.
