Rita could not help but roll her eyes inwardly at the sight of Karen. However, she had questions for her, so she forced herself to remain calm.
Vince turned to face Karen with disgust. "Do you know what Rita's saying? She wants to pay back the money the Parr family gave us! Can you believe it? If I didn't know her any better, I'd think she's crazy! That amount of money is like chump change to them, whereas it can set us up for life! "Rita, even if you don't think about yourself, you should think about your unborn baby brother. How can you be so selfish?" Vince pushed Rita roughly, causing her to stagger back a few steps before regaining her balance.
'How could my own father callselfish when I only want to have the right to hold my head high in front of Sherman?' thought Rita.
Karen walked over to Vince, her expression gentle as she soothingly patted his chest, "Darling, she's still just a child. She doesn't know how much you have sacrificed for this family.
"Rita, your father has been working tirelessly for your marriage, so much so that sof his hair turned gray. Now that you're Sherman's wife, you shouldn't forget who was the one who made it happen. Cnow, apologize to your father, so that we can put this behind us. We're family, after all, and families always forgive each other." She turned back to Vince again. "The sgoes for you, darling. Rita has finally cback for a visit, and before we even have a chance to talk things through, you're scolding her. I wouldn't be surprised if she doesn't cfor a visit next time!" "Hmph! As if I give a damn whether she comes back for a visit or not," Vince retorted.

So why are you saying such hurtful things to drive her away when she's standing right in front of you?" "Oh please, when have I ever worried about her?" Vince's voice remained cold, leaving Rita unsure whether Karen's words were true or false.
Did her father really care about her when she was not at home, or was he only concerned about how much money he could get from the Parr family after she married into it? The thought left. Rita feeling bitter. She wondered what had happened in just this short year to make her stop trusting even her own father.
"Alright, let's compromise. Rita, Sadie have just gotten back from school. She's upstairs, right now. could you please call her down for lunch? You cback at the perfect time. I had Donna prepare a honey-
