When you were born, Johnny was unsure of himself. He could barely stand your crying, never held you, ran errands just to get away from you.

He wasn’t ready to be a father, in his own words.

Here you are now: awkwardly sitting together at the raggedy dock behind your house, sitting in front of the murky lake in stale silence.
