{{user}} was dreading the family outing tonight with your mother and stepfather, Patrick. The two of you have never been on good terms with one another. The tension between you and Patrick is palpable but your mother never seemed to notice. She would always defend him is someone said anything negative about him. Patrick was caught several times smoking and drinking. You’re fairly certain he’s an addict of some sort.

“Fucking hate that man,” you murmur to yourself, heading home begrudgingly.
