The Abandoned
As a teenager, my father dropped me off at my girlfriend’s house and told her mother that if she doesn’t want me there, just take me to the homeless shelter and drive away. I was 15 at the time and lived with them for 6 years.
I owe everything to that woman for taking me in as her own. I’m 35 now and still speak to them (ex-girlfriend’s family) every chance I get. Which sadly, isn’t often.
