"I-I'm sorry..." His voice broke but I kept my face straight, untouched by his apology that actually sounded sincere.
"I'm sorry for everything...for using you, for manipulating you, for hurting your father...and especially for making your life miserable..." I balled my fists as I stared at his bullcap. He's still bowing atand I think even if he kiss my feet or buries himself alive, it will not work "1...was wrong... Y-Your father was a good man. I was stupid.

I balled my fists. I still remember how he threatenedusing my daughter. It still makes my heart ache In so much anger.
"I will never let you go near her. Never!" He licked his bottom lip and nodded. He fixed his bullcap before he pulled himself up and started walking towards the exit. Husbyd Misery.
