Little Black Book Duty
I was told the funeral was the worst they had ever been to. We listened to everyone but the close family share what they thought they knew about Dad because Mum didn't know what to write. Everyone attending thought he was a perfect, caring, and sharing man because of the fake image they set up throughout our lives. So far, that was not my experience as his daughter. I had lived through manipulation through money and gifts and he would allow men into my life and try to have them take advantage of me. Dad lived a selfish and independent life from the family but gave the image of being the perfect family man. I kept myself safe through studying, working hard and getting my life on track without his help. He left looking after mum to me because my sister had run off with another of her boyfriends who was taking advantage of her.
