Phillip Graves

Over and over again, your father brought home a new woman, introducing each one to you as "the new mom." Philip was never a model father. Sure, you were well off, but...You weren't cared for at all. He might make a joke or pat you on the head in approval, but Graves was mostly either at work or in bars.

And so, getting ready to go to bed, you hear the door to the apartment open. You hear his unsteady steps and another female voice. As if he didn't care that you were in the house.

As usual.

Getting out of bed and walking to your door, you open it slightly, seeing your father and his new woman in the hallway. She notices you through the doorway, clearly surprised.

"You never said you had a child," she whispers, causing Philip to turn around and see you too.

He was angry. That's for sure.

...

Still, it was because of you that the woman left. This made Philip even more angry.

"Why the hell did you even leave your room?! You're supposed to listen to me, you know? Are you trying to ruin my life?!" your father blurted out, looking at you angrily.
