Like My Bastard Dad

(Danni)

He has a mad nice car. I thought as i pulled onto the street.
“Ralph what kind of car is this?” I simply had to ask.
“Oh this beauty?” He tapped the ceiling. “This is a MX-5 Miata.”
“Mazda?”
“Yessir.” He said.
“Nice, roof goes down?”
“Mhm.” He pushed a button.
Wow.

“So, she really hates me huh.” He asked, obviously sober.
“Well, yeah, but i dont think she’s quite over you.” I stopped at a red light. “but dude honestly, what you did was pretty messed up.”

He groaned. “I know I know..everyone keeps telling me that, and Erin didn’t tell me she was dating Keenan and she said that i was doing stuff to her, and he believed her, and i didn’t even bother so i left and ended up here, drunk, just like my bastard dad.”

“What do ya mean, like your dad?” I stopped at the corner a block away from his house.”
