MR. JARVIS

“I’m very disappointed in you. I thought you’d outgrown your mean girl phase, but what was that. Why the hell have you been acting like a spoiled child?”

“How could you, dad? How could you choose her over me?”

“How did I do that? When? Did I choose her over you, or is this you being upset that I want to have a life?”

“But what about mom?”

“What about her?”

“She was your wife for almost twenty years; you were college sweethearts? How can you just watch her suffer like that? Don’t you care?”

“Actually, no, I don’t. I stopped caring when she cheated on me or did you forget? And while we’re at it, who ordered the closetful of clothes upstairs?” She looked guilty, and her eyes shifted in that way they do when she’s about to deceive me or at least try.

“I, what does it matter? She’s your wife.”

“Right, I’ve canceled your credit card, the one that I gave to you when you first went away to college. “How can you do that? How will I live?”

“You have a trust fund; use it.”

“But I’ve never had to before; this isn’t fair. It’s all her fault. How could you do this? How could you choose that slut over your own daughter?”

“And we’re done. I told you I wouldn’t accept any derogatory remarks about Jenna. You’re my daughter, and I love you, but it’s time you grow up. I don’t want to hear anything from you until you apologize.” I cut her off when she started to speak and walked away to tell the medics they were free to go.

My daughter threw a tantrum on my driveway until I got frustrated and left her there. I stepped inside, and she screamed bloody murder, but when I looked back, she was just staring up at the side of the house, screaming at nothing.

I closed and locked the door feeling as if a weight had been lifted off my shoulders. It was high time I’d got my house in order, and though Jenna was the catalyst that caused me to make a move at this time, I wouldn’t say that it was all because of her. I never liked the idea of having my ex living under my roof, but like I said, I did it for my daughter.

I’d spent the afternoon with Susan’s parents letting them know that I was ready to move on with my life and their daughter was either going into a care facility which they could pay for, or she could come live with them. I also suggested they let their granddaughter move in with them if she wasn’t ready to live on her own, which she’d done her whole college life.

They had no face to throw shade or cast blame my way, so they humbly agreed to bring their daughter home and have their granddaughter move in to help with her care. Little do they know that that’s not about to happen. Darla may bitch and moan at me about her mom, but she herself has no time and barely even looks in on her when she’s home.
